SMHI's climate modeling research unit Rossby Center participates with two research projects at the online exhibition Science is Wonderful! on 22-24 September during the European Research and Innovation Days.

The Aquaclew project has, during the last three years, advanced data quality in Pan-European climate services for the water sector. Robustness, Resolution and Recruitment describes the performance through the entire Climate Service production chain.

SMHI performed an oxygen survey within SLU-Aqua’s cruise; the International Bottom Trawl Survey, that covers the Skagerrak and the Kattegat. SMHI joined the cruise to perform CTD measurements in connection to each trawl and to take water samples for the annual oxygen survey. Samples for nutrients …

The phytoplankton diversity was higher in the Kattegat than in the Skagerrak. In the Kattegat there was an obvious impact of the Baltic blooms considering the presence of cyanobacteria surface accumulations that had drifted out through the Sound. There were relatively high cell numbers of the …

The surface water was, unlike in June, warmer than normal at most stations in the Baltic Proper, but mostly normal in the Kattegat and the Skagerrak. The surface water temperature varied between 18-21 degrees, of which the highest temperatures were measured in the Baltic Proper. The salinity of the …

The ClimPoll project will increase the understanding of cumulative effects of worldwide adverse human pressures, including pollution, ocean acidification and global warming, on the nature and strength of food-web structure and trophic interactions in the ocean. The project is founded by the Swedish …

Annual report of the Swedish oceanographic monitoring in open seas.

The demand in Air quality management systems is rising, and in the same time several countries struggle with management of these data. Commissioned by the The Swedish Environmental Protection Agency (SEPA or Naturvårdsverket), SMHI has been developing such a system for years. Now, together with the …

The surface water temperature varied between 12.5-17.3 °C, which is lower than normal for the season. The salinity in the surface in the Baltic Proper was above normal at all stations visited.   Dissolved inorganic nitrogen in the surface water was below detection limit from the surface …

The Swedish national marine monitoring programme of the pelagic, the water column, includes monthly measurements of hydrography, nutrient concentration and phytoplankton for the seas around Sweden; the Skagerrak, the Kattegat, the Sound, the Baltic Proper and the Gulf of Bothnia. Data is collected, …
