The SMHI oceanographic research unit develops the Swedish Coastal zoon Model and share data from the model in the SMHI WaterWeb.

The marine environment is a valuable resource for society and its people, for recreation and for transportation. The Baltic Sea is an especially vulnerable sea. It is unique in its brackish-water setting and many species in the marine ecosystem is especially adapted to this environment.

A climatological atlas of the oxygen situation in the deep water of the Baltic Sea was first´published in 2011 in SMHI Report Oceanography No 42. Since 2011, annual updates have been made as additional data have been reported to ICES. In this report the results for 2014 have been updated and the …

The temperature in the surface water was above normal in the Baltic Proper. The concentrations of nutrients were generally normal for the season in Skagerrak and Kattegat. In the Baltic Proper the concentration of phosphate was elevated in the western parts while the silicate concentration was well …

All phytoplankton samples from the Skagerrak, the Kattegat and the Baltic Sea had low species diversities. All of the cell counts were low. No further detailed phytoplankton information will be presented in this report, only species lists and the chlorophyll diagrams.

BONUS BalticAPP: well-being from the Baltic Sea – applications combining natural science and economics is a project funded by the Bonus program that aims to project the future evolution of the Baltic Sea ecosystem under consistent scenarios detailing various climate and nutrient load changes.

SMHI oceanographic research unit is involved in many national and international projects to develop and link ocean modeling and observations to core services and to fundamental research questions including historical reconstructions and climate change in the Baltic Sea, the North Sea and the Arctic …
