Surface temperatures varied between 13 and 15 degrees C. Nutrient concentrations were normal for the season in all areas. High fluorescence values were measured in the frontal zone between Skagerrak and Kattegat as well as in the northern part of the Sound. Hydrogen sulphide was found at depths Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

Surface water temperatures as well as nutrient concentrations were typical for the season. Oxygen concentrations below 2 ml/l were found at depths greater than 80 m in the Western, Eastern and Northern Gotland Basins and from 70 m and downward in the Bornholm Basin and the Hanö Bight.

The surface water temperatures, as well as the nutrient concentrations were typical for the season. Oxygen concentrations below 2 ml/l were found at depths greater than 70m in the southern Baltc, 80m in the eastern and 60m in the northern Gotland Basins and from 70m in the Bornholm Basin and the Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

The weather was in the beginning of the cruise dominated by strong northerly to north-easterly winds and by the end the winds shifted to south and decreased. The temperatures were slightly higher than normal for the season. The nutrient concentrations were lower than normal for the season for all Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

Surface temperatures varied between 15.2 and 16.8 degrees C. Nutrient concentrations were normal for the season in almost all areas. High fluorescence values were measured at the Å section in the Skagerrak, as well as in the northern part of the Sound. Hydrogen sulphide was found at depths greater Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

Surface water temperatures as well as all nutrient concentrations were normal for the season in all areas. In the Skagerrak and in the Kattegat, the spring bloom was over. An ongoing spring bloom was observed in the northwestern part of the Baltic. Oxygen concentrations below 2 ml/l were found in Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

Surface water temperatures were normal for the season in all areas. In the Skagerrak, high nitrate concentrations were detected along the Jutland coast, where there also was a high algal production. In the rest of the Skagerrak and in the Kattegat, the spring bloom was almost over. In the Baltic Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

Surface temperatures varied between 15.5 and 17.5°C. Nutrient concentrations were normal for the season, nitrite and nitrate below detection limits (0.02 and 0.10 μmol/l repectively). Posphate between 0.02 and 0.3 μmol/l and silicate from 0.3 μmol/l in the Skagerrak to 10 μmol/l in the Baltic Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

season. Hydrogen sulphide was present in the bottom water in the Bornholm Basin, Hanö Bight and the eastern and western Gotland Basins. Some of these results indicate that the oxygen situation is worse than normally for the season. Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

The surface temperatures were between 14 and 16°C. Nutrient concentrations were normal for the season in mainly all areas. In the Skagerrak the surface salinity was >30 psu with exception of the easterly station of the Å cross section, where the salinity was 24 psu depending on the transit of the Last updated: Apr 23, 2014
