New types of hydrological data from different parts of the water cycle, from many locations and at many times, create conditions to fundamentally improve our hydrological modeling tools. Some examples that can help make models more robust, in a time of changes in regards to both society and …

New substances continuously enter our waterways and cause problems for ecosystems. This places new demands on information from SMHI.

Nature-based solutions involve using nature and natural processes to address various societal challenges, while benefiting biological diversity and human well-being. SMHI continues to develop climate and water information and find new methods for such solutions.

The Kattegat, Öresund, the Baltic Proper and a coastal station in Skagerrak were visited during this cruise, which is part of the Swedish environmental monitoring program area coast and sea.

The surface water temperature was normal for the month, around 7 °C on the west coast and varied between 3 …

All stations along the Swedish west coast had a dominance of diatoms. A bit surprising was also to find several cells of the bioluminescent dinoflagellate Noctiluca scintillans, at all stations. Except for this, small flagellates of various taxa were the most common, and in Skagerrak Emiliania …

During the cruise, which is part of the Swedish pelagic monitoring program, Skagerrak, Kattegat, Öresund, and the Baltic Proper were visited. In the Kattegat, a limited mapping survey of nutrients was carried out through sampling from Svea's ferrybox. Nutrients and chlorophyll were analyzed in …

Some chains of Skeletonema marinoi and Guinardia delicatula was still present as a remembrance of the spring bloom in the Kattegat and Skagerrak area. Except for the diatoms, small flagellates of different sorts were most common. The integrated chlorophyll concentrations were above normal at the …

Due to bad weather, all of the Skagerrak stations except Släggö were not sampled. The spring bloom had passed and the cell concentrations and biodiversity were overall low. Some chains of Skeletonema marinoi and Guinardia delicatula was still present as a remembrance of the spring bloom. Except for …

The CF 2024 workshop will be a four day meeting held in person at SMHI, Norrköping, Sweden, Tuesday 17th September - Friday 20th September.

The meeting will be divided into two parts:

Last week a group of SMHI colleagues attended EGU, the European Geosciences Union annual conference in Vienna. Helena Martins, head of climate research at SMHI, convened a panel debate focusing on how young researchers can navigate the policy-research divide and have an impact on society in their …
