Climate change affects us all, and we have to do something to do about it. This message was clear after the Nordic Conference on Climate Change Adaptation, which was attended by more than 400 representatives from municipal, regional and national government, as well as the business and research …

The species diversity was fairly high in the Kattegat and at Släggö at the Skagerrak coast. The total cell numbers were low and the most numerous species were the dinoflagellate Prorocentrum compressum and the diatom Pseudosolenia calcar-avis. The coccolithophorid Emiliania huxleyi was present in …

The expedition was included within SLU:s International Bottom Trawl Survey and covered the Skagerrak and the Kattegat. Also during the expedition, SMHIs standard frequent stations were visited. In Skagerrak 9 stations with complete hydrography were sampled in the Skagerrak and 12 stations in the …

This cruise was not a full cruise with phytoplankton sampling at only three west coast stations and three stations in the Baltic Sea. The west coast stations Släggö and Anholt E displayed relatively high biodiversity. The coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi was found at high cell numbers at both …

The cruise, which is part of the Swedish pelagic monitoring program, visited the Sound, the Baltic Proper and parts of the Kattegat. In the Kattegat, Anholt E represents the entire sea area since neither N14 nor Fladen were sampled. This is otherwise done during a regular monitoring cruise. Due to …

This sampling occasion was not a full cruise with all phytoplankton stations, only one west coast phytoplankton station and six in the Baltic Sea were sampled. The west coast station (Anholt E), displayed an autumn bloom community with several species of dinoflagellates, as well as some diatoms, …

Every year, people are surprised by unexpected floods in West Africa. 2018, Nigeria is particularly affected by major flooding which has killed more than 100 people during September. The interest is therefore great for the operational flood forecasting and alert pilot system that SMHI is building …

The European Climate Research Alliance (ECRA) is an association of 23 leading European research institutions. ECRA’s objective is to bring together, expand and optimise expertise in climate research through a bottom-up approach. The initiative is a platform for joint research planning by sharing …

G.I.Nord synthesis project aims at defining critical knowledge gaps and practical needs and obstacles to an efficient implementation of Urban Green Infrastructure (UGI) as a climate change adaptation tool in urban planning. Together with stakeholders, end-users and experts, lessons and experiences …

MERGE (Modelling the regional and global Earth system) is a collaboration between: Lund University, University of Gothenburg, Rossby Centre/SMHI, Linnaeus University, Chalmers University of Technology and Royal Institute of Technology. In 2017, MERGE involved more than 120 researchers, including …
