small scales, in which diffusion times are short and the particles retain their initia~ turbulent velocities. For calculating the Lagrangian integral time scale, a practical technique sug- gested by Hay and Pasquill (1959) forms the basis. The essen- tial difference between Eulerian (fixed point) and Last updated: Apr 23, 2020

A new agreement with the Swedish Coastguard caused a shorter cruise, consequently only the Swedish west coast and parts of the southern Baltic Proper (Arkona and Bornholm Basins) were visited. The number of species was quite high in the coastal Skagerrak waters (Släggö), but the cell numbers were Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

. The number of dinoflagellate species were almost the same as the number of diatom species, and many of them heterotrophic. Several heterotrophic small flagellates and ciliates were observed. In the Baltic, the diatom spring bloom was found mainly in the southern parts and in the Kalmar sound. Diatoms Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

The cell concentrations were low at all stations in the Baltic Sea and at the Swedish west coast except at Å17 in the Skagerrak. The species diversity was relatively high at the Swedish west coast and low in the Baltic Sea. The integrated (0-20 m) chlorophyll a concentrations were within normal at Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

The survey was completed in co-operation with SLU (Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences) and within the international acoustic survey in the Bothnian Sea and Baltic Proper (BIAS) during weeks 40-42. The oxygen situation in the Baltic Proper is severe. Low oxygen concentrations (<2 ml/l) were Last updated: Apr 23, 2014
