River Kokemäenjoki drainage basin Tampere Helsinki INTRODUCTION In the case study, the impacts of climate change on nutrient (P, N) flows into lakes and to the Baltic Sea from the drainage basin of River Kokemäenjoki are estimated. Eutrophication of the Baltic Sea and inland waters is a major environmental problem in Finland. The reason for eutrophication is increased input of nutrients. Both phosphorus and nitrogen are important. In lakes, phosphorus is a more important eutrophying factor, whereas in the Baltic Sea nitrogen is generally considered to be more important.
