The AlgAware report No 6 will be divided in PART 1 and PART 2 because the expedition in June is divided in two cruises. This report present phytoplankton analyses from the Baltic Sea. The Aphanizomenon flos-aquae dominated southeast part of the Baltic and three species from the genus Dinophyceae Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

AlgAware number 7 is split in two parts because the July cruise is divided into two. This report, part 1, presents phytoplankton analysis from the Baltic Sea. The second cruise is planned to start 30th of July and will cover the Skagerrak, Kattegat and the southern Baltic. Phytoplankton analysis Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

AlgAware number 7 is split in two parts because the July cruise is divided into two. This report, part 2, presents phytoplankton analysis from the Skagerrak, the Kattegat and the southwestern part of the Baltic Proper. Phytoplankton analyses have partly been made on board, partly on land, at the Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

expedition was part of SMHI’s regular marine monitoring programme and covered the Skagerrak, Kattegat, Sound, Baltic Proper and Gulf of Bothnia. This report is based on preliminary, part-quality controlled data. Most parameters showed values typical for the season, except phosphate and silicate that showed Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

Since RH 2000 became official in 2005, a transition to the new reference system has been ongoing at Sweden's municipalities, government agencies and other societal stakeholders. For example, the Swedish Maritime Administration is gradually adapting the Swedish nautical charts to RH 2000 (Baltic Sea Last updated: May 29, 2019

Baltic Proper, and by 5–6°C in the Skagerrak and the Kattegat. Concentrations of nutrients in the form of dissolved inorganic phosphorus (phosphate) and dissolved inorganic nitrogen in the surface water were, with few exceptions, normal for the season in the sea areas visited.

During the cruise, which is part of the Swedish pelagic monitoring program, the Skagerrak, the Kattegat, the Sound, and the Baltic Proper were visited. Surface water temperatures in all sea areas were around normal, between 16–19°C, except at BY39, south of Öland, where it was 9°C, which is below Last updated: Aug 27, 2024

The salinity is 3-4 psu in the Bothnian Bay, 5-6 psu in the Sea of Bothnia, 6-9 psu in the Baltic Proper and 15-30 psu in the Skagerrak and Kattegat. Since fresh water is lighter, it takes more fresh water in the Baltic to balance the sea level outside – thus mean sea level in the Baltic is higher Last updated: Apr 23, 2014
