Background
• Estonian National Marine Monitoring programme was
established in 1994 (pelagic programme and monitoring of
harmful substances) mainly aimed at fulfilling Estonian
obligations towards Helsinki Convention.
• In 1995 phytobenthos monitoring and programme of high
frequency monitoring in three “hot spot” areas (Narva Bay,
Tallinn Bay and Pärnu Bay) was added.

Background
• In 1997 the Ferrybox/SOOP (ship of opportunity) monitoring
was established along the ferry line between Tallinn and
Helsinki.
• In 2005 the remote sensing programme was established.
• There was a major revision of the monitoring programme in
2006 - 2007 to fulfil the EU Water Framework Directive (WFD)
requirements.
• In 2010 the monitoring of non-indigineous species was added
to the programme and the frequency of open sea monitoring
has increased since 2011.

Background
• Sea level measurements have been carried out since 1842 in Tallinn (with 1 hour interval since 1888), regular observations of ice conditions started even earlier. The first automatic sea level station (measurements interval 5 min) was established in Muuga Bay in 1993, an on-line station started in Tallinn in 1998.
• The operational sea level forecast system, based on HIROMB model (high resolution operational model of the Baltic Sea) and operational measurements, was developed in co-operation with the Baltic Operational Oceanographic System (BOOS, established officially in 2001) and is in operation since2005.

National policy and regulations
• Environmental monitoring is a responsibility of the Ministry of the Environment of Estonia.
• Monitoring law and related legal acts define the sub-programmes of the national monitoring and, if applicable, the responsible institutions.
• Development of the monitoring system, including operational oceanographic observations and forecasts, and related R&D is a responsibility of research institutes belonging to the Universities and governmental agencies/laboratories.
• Ministry of the Environment is responsible in fulfilling obligations and working in the frames of international conventions/
organizations related to oceanographic observations and monitoring, such as IOC, EU WFD, EU Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD), Helsinki Convention, etc.

Financial & organizational
frameworks
• The responsible organization for marine weather forecasts
(including sea level, waves etc) is the Estonian Meteorological
and Hydrological Institute (EMHI, under Ministry of the
Environment of Estonia).
• The forecasts systems are developed and updated by the
Marine Systems Institute (MSI) at Tallinn University of
Technology in co-operation with the regional system
HIROMB-BOOS.
• MSI is member of the EuroGOOS from Estonia and since 2011,
a representative from MSI is BOOS chair.

Financial & organizational
frameworks
• The operational system and its development are funded by
the Ministry of the Environment (including Environmental
Investment Centre), Ministry of Education and Research
(including Estonian Research Council) and international R&D
projects (e.g. FP7 project MyOcean etc.).

Implementation of R&D and
monitoring programmes
• National marine monitoring programme is implemented
according to the approved programme and the data are
reported to the authorities at a yearly basis.
• The reports and data are available at Estonian Environmental
Information Centre.
• The data are reported also to HELCOM, European and
international organizations according to the valid regulations
and agreements.

Future perspectives
• Ministry of the Environment has decided to include
operational oceanographic measurements into the future
open sea environmental monitoring program – new Ferrybox
system and autonomous profiler will be installed in 2012
• The institute is one of the partner institutions in the project
“Estonian Environmental Observatory” (2011-2014) in the
frames of the Estonian Research Infrastructure Roadmap
program where the institute’s responsibility is to develop and
maintain a deep sea cabled observatory in the Gulf of
Finland
