Many fish species have their spawning and nursery areas here. Birds forage on the productive seabed and many of the coast&#8217;s threatened species have their habitats here. The bladderwrack belt is home to the richest plant and animal life in the Baltic Sea. The more or less isolated lagoons (flats, gloflats and glon), isolated from the surrounding coastal waters by land uplift, are a very valuable habitat for fish recruitment and bird life.    <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The bladderwrack belt is home to the richest plant and animal life in the Baltic Sea.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Lots of fish species<br \/>\n<\/strong>Sample fishing along the \u00d6sterg\u00f6tland coast has shown the presence of 35 fish species, such as pike, perch, zander, salmon, trout, cod and several flatfish species. Five species are currently on the red list: eel, cod, anglerfish, turbot and vendace. <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Reed clearing, reedbeds and anchoring buoys<br \/>\n<\/strong>In this project, the aim is to conserve marine habitats for predatory fish such as pike and perch. Improved populations of these predatory fish will lead to an improved ecological status of the aquatic environment through so-called cascading effects.<br \/>\nThe project will involve the clearing of 10 hectares of reeds, the construction of 25 artificial reefs and the installation of 18 anchoring buoys. The aim is to improve conditions for predatory fish, enhance biodiversity and protect the area&#8217;s marine habitats. Human impacts on the area&#8217;s aquatic environment, seabed and underwater vegetation will be minimized.   <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The areas summarized in brief:<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>BOK\u00d6<br \/>\n<\/strong>The Bok\u00f6 Natura 2000 area comprises the islands of Bok\u00f6, Br\u00e5nnholmen, L\u00e5ngholmen and some fifteen smaller islands and skerries in the narrowest part of the \u00d6sterg\u00f6tland archipelago.<br \/>\nBok\u00f6 has a high species richness and provides a habitat for pike, perch and zander, for example. Human impact on the area&#8217;s aquatic environment, seabeds and underwater vegetation must be minimized. <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vegetated seabeds play a key role in coastal biodiversity. Many fish species have their spawning and nursery grounds here. Birds forage on the productive seabed and several of the coast&#8217;s threatened species have their habitats here.  <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>BR\u00c5VIKEN<br \/>\n<\/strong>The Br\u00e5viken outer project area is located in the Br\u00e5viken estuary in northeastern \u00d6sterg\u00f6tland in the northern part of the \u00d6sterg\u00f6tland archipelago. Most of the area is open sea. Important species in Br\u00e5viken Outer include pike, zander, perch, white-tailed eagle, common tern, sandwich tern, osprey and others.<br \/>\nThe water area is characterized by relatively deep waters with a maximum depth of 38 meters. Just under 10 percent of the water area is shallow areas down to a depth of three meters. However, shallow areas with more lush vegetation are found in several places.    <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>S\u00d6DRA LUNDA &#8211; BR\u00c5VIKEN INRE<br \/>\n<\/strong>S\u00f6dra Lunda is located in the outer part of the Ark\u00f6sund archipelago. There are marine natural values here, with both shallow bays (lagoons) and mosaic-like island groups. Some of the smaller islands are surrounded by shallow areas, but the majority of the reserve&#8217;s water surfaces are deeper than six meters.  <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>\u00c5SVIKELANDET-KV\u00c4D\u00d6<br \/>\n<\/strong>\u00c5svikelandets and Kv\u00e4d\u00f6fj\u00e4rdens nature reserve is located in the southern \u00d6sterg\u00f6tland archipelago in a very unaffected coastal area. There are rocky coasts as well as moraine beaches, extensive shallow areas and shallow and narrow bays. Of particular value is Licknevarpefj\u00e4rden with its protected location inside Kv\u00e4d\u00f6. Here and in the adjacent shallow bays there is a valuable flora of cranial algae and eelgrass as well as an unusually rich fish fauna. Motorboat traffic and fishing have long been banned.    <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>SANKT ANNAS AND GRYTS SK\u00c4RG\u00c5RD, SAMT MISSJ\u00d6<br \/>\n<\/strong>Sankt Anna och Gryts sk\u00e4rg\u00e5rdar is located within one of Sweden&#8217;s most beautiful archipelagos, Sankt Anna. The Natura 2000 area is a large area consisting of several sub-areas in the middle and outer archipelago that includes five nature reserves and most of the archipelago&#8217;s bird and seal protection areas. <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The central archipelago is characterized by groups of small or medium-sized islands between rather large and open bays. The islands in the archipelagos are dominated by rice and lichen communities and sparse rocky pine forest. On the larger islands such as Missj\u00f6, where the soil cover is deeper, there is an element of oak and grove vegetation. The marine environment has a relatively large proportion of shallow and vegetated bottoms with depths of 0-6 meters.   <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>SVENSKSUNDSVIKEN<br \/>\n<\/strong>Svensksundsvikens is one of the largest shallow bays on the Baltic coast. With its rich and diverse nature and its great importance as a resting and nesting place for wetland birds, it is of national interest for nature conservation. The area has also been declared a wetland of international importance. The size of the bay with large adjacent areas of managed seashore meadows harbors a very rich flora and has high values for bird life and organism groups associated with seashore meadows on the Baltic Sea.   <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Svensksundsviken has a high species diversity and is a habitat for pike, perch, zander, white-tailed eagle, tern, common tern, bittern, greenfinch and other species.  <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The prioritized conservation values include that the aquatic environment should have a good status for birds that forage here. For Svensksundsviken, the aim is to try to restore a water status with lower levels of nitrogen and phosphorus salts compared with current values. The amount of underwater vegetation should increase to the levels that existed in the 1960s. A blue band between saltmarsh and reed beds should be present along most of the boundary between saltmarsh and reed beds   <\/span><\/p>\n<p> [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_section disable_element=&#8221;yes&#8221; el_name=&#8221;Projektf\u00f6rfarande&#8221;][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<style type=\"text\/css\">#ut_custom_heading69f5c6e000c8e { color:#008060; }#ut_custom_heading69f5c6e000c8e { font-size:20px !important;line-height:130% !important; }#ut_custom_heading69f5c6e000c8e { text-align:left; }@media (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1024px) { #ut_custom_heading69f5c6e000c8e { text-align:left; } }@media (max-width: 767px) { #ut_custom_heading69f5c6e000c8e { text-align:center; } }<\/style><h3 id=\"ut_custom_heading69f5c6e000c8e\" data-responsive-font=\"h3\" data-responsive-font-settings=\"{&quot;base-font-size&quot;:&quot;global&quot;,&quot;font-size&quot;:{&quot;desktop_large&quot;:&quot;20&quot;},&quot;base-line-height&quot;:&quot;global&quot;,&quot;line-height&quot;:{&quot;desktop_large&quot;:&quot;130&quot;},&quot;base-letter-spacing&quot;:&quot;global&quot;}\" class=\"ut-custom-heading-module   vc_custom_1739286393713\" ><span class=\"\" >Restoration of xxx<\/span><\/h3><div class=\"wpb_content_element \"><style type=\"text\/css\">#ut_header_69f5c6e00159a h2.section-title { font-size:50px !important;line-height:125% !important;letter-spacing:-0.03em; }<\/style><header id=\"ut_header_69f5c6e00159a\" class=\"section-header  ut-no-title-linebreak-mobile ut-no-lead-linebreak-mobile pt-style-7 header-left header-tablet-left header-mobile-center element-with-custom-line-height\"><div class=\"element-with-custom-line-height\" ><h2 data-title=\"Here we are now\"  data-responsive-font=\"section_title\" data-responsive-font-settings=\"{&quot;base-font-size&quot;:&quot;global&quot;,&quot;font-size&quot;:{&quot;desktop_large&quot;:&quot;50&quot;},&quot;base-line-height&quot;:&quot;global&quot;,&quot;line-height&quot;:{&quot;desktop_large&quot;:&quot;125&quot;},&quot;base-letter-spacing&quot;:&quot;global&quot;,&quot;letter-spacing&quot;:{&quot;desktop_large&quot;:&quot;-0.03&quot;}}\" class=\"section-title  \"><span>Here we are now<\/span><\/h2><\/div><div data-delay=\"0\" class=\"lead \"><p>Fusce augue nibh, rhoncus quis mattis et, aliquam sit amet lorem.
