In the Skagerrak and Kattegat, surface water temperatures were normal and sea surface salinity lower than normal in the north. Sea surface salinity was higher than normal in the Sound. Surface temperatures and salinities were normal for the time of year in the Baltic. Nutrient concentrations in …

Despite the great secchi depth, quite high phytoplankton cell numbers and many species were found at the Skagerrak coast. In the open sea area, phytoplankton were more scarce. In the Kattegat the diatom Dactyliosolen fragilissimus and the cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. were abundant. In the Baltic …

In the Skagerrak and Kattegat, surface water temperatures were normal and sea surface salinity lower than normal. Surface temperatures and salinities were normal for the time of year in the Baltic. Nutrient concentrations in surface waters were normal in most of the region, with the exception of …

The first step has now been taken towards a common climate change adaptation strategy for the Baltic Sea Region. The large-scale EU project Baltadapt, where SMHI is one of the partners, is mainly focused on how the sea and coastal areas can be adapted to a change in climate.

The phytoplankton species diversity was low in both the Kattegat and the Skagerrak. Small flagellates dominated and especially different cryptomonads were common. The integrated (0-20m) chlorophyll concentrations were within normal in the Skagerrak and lower than normal in the Kattegat. The …
