Surface water temperatures were normal for the season in all investigated areas. All nutrients in the surface layer were at low concentrations, which is normal for the season. The oxygen conditions in the Kattegat bottom water were good, while they were relatively poor in the southern Baltic Sea Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

The stratification in the open sea areas of Skagerrak was very weak. In the Kattegat and the Baltic Proper sea surface temperature values was slightly above normal. Surface nutrients showed mainly values typical for the season, except for silicate which had concentrations well above normal in the Last updated: Nov 19, 2015

inflow to the Baltic Sea took place. Through the Sound about 40 km3 flowed into the Baltic Sea. The Skagerrak Surface water temperatures had since the previous cruise in November, decreased to values normal for the season, about 7oC. However, there was still a clear excess in temperatures at depths Last updated: Dec 16, 2014

Nutrient conditions and surface water temperatures were normal for the season in all areas. Oxygen concentrations below 2 ml/l were found at the bottom in Skälderviken, in the Sound from 15 metres, in western Arkona bassin from 40 meters and in the rest of the Baltic Proper at depths greater than Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

The temperature and nutrient concentrations in the surface layer, were normal for the season in all areas. The spring bloom of phytoplankton had terminated in most of the areas covered. Only in the east part of the Baltic proper it was still going on. Hydrogen sulphide was present at depths greater Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

range of 10.89 to 11.92 °C, which is normal to slightly below normal for the season. The salinity of the surface layer varied between 19.48 and 22.7 psu in the Kattegat, which is typical. In the Sound the salinity was low, 8.49 psu, depending on the outflowing surface water from the Baltic Sea. The Last updated: Oct 21, 2015
