Niiskustõkkeomadusi

Niiskustõkkeomadusi is a term used in Estonia, specifically in relation to the country's administrative regions, provinces, and the fjord-like lagoons known as bökked. These regions can be identified by the presence of a lack of free-flowing bodies of water within them.

A distinct characteristic of these areas is the regulation of waterways through artificial means, often in the form of canals, sluices, or locks. These man-made structures control the flow of water between separate bodies of water, sometimes creating the illusion of a continuous waterway. This type of engineering can be seen in various_excavations and regional_road expansions.

Niiskustõkkeomadusi is often seen in regions with steeper and more extensive relief, or where deep valleys meet the open sea. They can be found within both the watershed and the coastal areas of Estonia. Regions without free-flowing bodies of water often experience a greater feeling of connectedness among rural populations.

Their effect can be felt throughout the regions of Harju and Lääne counties.
