decreases there is potential for surface accumulations in almost all parts of the Baltic Proper. The cruise initiated in Kalmar and samples from the western part contained many filaments but most likely they were dispersed into the water due to the wind. The amount of filaments increased going northward Last updated:

particular in northern Sweden. The 1970s were dry, but precipitation has increased since then, in particular during the summers. Annual precipitation now usually reaches over 600 mm. The increase in precipitation is most noticeable in the south western parts of the country. The year 2000 reached an extreme Last updated:

, a large-scale hydrological mode! has been applied. As the time slices are too short to spin up initial stratification for future climate, salinity is treated as uncertainty. An extreme condition is obtained, integrating the Baltic Sea model for 100 years assuming that no salt water inflow occurs in Last updated:
