chlorophyll concentrations (0–10 m and 0–20 m) were within normal for this month at all stations. Diversity and cell abundance of phytoplankton were very low in the Baltic Sea, with mostly smaller cells such as Cryptomonadales and smaller Gymnodiniales. The centric diatom Actinocyclus octonarius was present Last updated:

The species diversity was high in the Kattegat when considering the season but the total cell numbers were low. In the Skagerrak the diversity was a bit lower. Only Släggö could be sampled in Skagerrak during this cruise. The Plankton community along the Swedish west coast had a traditional winter Last updated:
