Research publications from the SMHI Oceanographic research group.

SMHIs oceanographic unit carries out research on the oceans role in nearly all aspects of human’s life. The main focus is set on the Baltic Sea, the North Sea and the Arctic, which together form one of the most complex and vulnerable oceanographic regions in the world.

Sediment and near bottom water oxygen data was evaluated to look for correspondence in anoxic conditions. The SGU and SMHI monitoring data showed high correlation, although the actual data tested proved to be few, coincidence in space was promising. The conclusion drawn from the evaluation is that …

The water temperature was slightly above normal throughout the study area. The concentrations of nutrients in surface water were normal for the season in the Skagerrak and the Kattegat. In the Baltic proper, concentrations of inorganic nitrogen (NO2 + NO3) were at normal levels in the surface …

The first sixty decision-makers from Africa have completed the Training Programme on "Climate Change - Mitigation and Adaptation" at SMHI in Norrköping. A total of 250 people from nine African countries will attend the Training Programme, which includes all aspects including the latest …

The project will develop a new generation of advanced and evaluated high-resolution global climate models, which are able to simulate and predict regional climate with unsurpassed accuracy - indispensable for governments, business and society in general.

The phytoplankton diversity and cell concentrations were low in the Skagerrak area. Small diatoms dominated. In the Kattegat the potentially toxin producing genus Pseudo-nitzschia spp dominated the community. The potentially harmful naked dinoflagellate Karenia mikimotoi was present. The integrated …
