The strong heterogeneity in their properties and various underlying atmospheric processes complicate their global assessment and call for studies to evaluate the capabilities of the modern-era satellites to provide additional insights.

enstaka celler. De integrerade klorofyllhalterna (0–10 m och 0–20 m) var inom det normala för månaden vid alla stationer, förutom vid BY32 där de var högre än normalt. Abstract The species diversity was high in the Kattegat when considering the season but the total cell numbers were low. In the Skagerrak Last updated:

. A clear improvement was noted during the October cruise when oxygen levels in the bottom water had increased from around 2 ml/l (acute oxygen deficiency) to 3.4 ml/l, which is just below the threshold for oxygen deficiency at 4 ml/l. Due to the regular CTD malfunctioning, there are no fluorescence Last updated:

The nutrients DIN (dissolved inorganic nitrogen), phosphate and silicate had increased since October and were normal in the surface water, except for silicate which was above normal at Släggö. In the deep water, there were Last updated:

specific wind, weather, and sea level conditions cause the flow direction to reverse, allowing inflows to occur. These inflows, which are rare, can transport large amounts of oxygenated and highly saline water into the Baltic Sea. Due to the differing densities of low and high saline waters, stable Last updated:

Marine environmental monitoring at SMHI

Kattegat and Skagerrak seas are a part of the North Sea but are in turn affected by the outflow of Baltic Sea water. The Baltic Sea and the Skagerrak and Kattegat seas are therefore an intricately integrated water system. The environmental goals for ocean and coast require that data and basis of decision Last updated:

bottom waters of the Baltic also reflected the oxygen deficiency, with values above normal, and levels that increased as the oxygen had been depleted in the water column. In the Arkona basin, the oxygen situation was somewhat better, with bottom water values between 2,33 – 3,33 ml/l. Surface Last updated:
