The stations at Skagerrak were dominated by large cells from the dinoflagellate genus Ceratium. The phytoplankton community in the Kattegat was dominated by the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornatum. The cyanobacterial species Aphanizomenon flos-aquae and the dinoflagellate Dinophysis norvegica were …

The water temperature in the surface layer was essentially normal for the season. Spring bloom was now over in the Skagerrak and Kattegat areas and nutrients showed low concentrations. Inorganic nitrogen was below the detection limit, while there were small amounts of phosphate left. In the Baltic …

This report documents Coordinated Regional Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX) climate model simulations at 50 km horizontal resolution over Europe with the Rossby Centre regional atmospheric model (RCA4) for i) a ERA-Interim-driven (ERAINT) simulation used to evaluate model performance in the recent …

The latest results from climate research have been used to produce detailed analyses of Sweden’s future climate. The results build on the climate scenarios that have been used by the UN’s climate panel in its Fifth Assessment Report (AR5). Two scenarios have been used in this analysis: RCP4.5, …

The governmental report “En trygg dricksvattenförsörjning” (“A safe water supply”) aims to identify current and potential challenges for safe management of drinking water in Sweden. One starting point will be the expected effects of climate change on the drinking water supply.

SMHI has produced this …

This report describes the physical processes as part of the surface scheme in the Rossby Centre Regional Atmospheric Climate Model (RCA4). Or more strictly for the version used for the CORDEX downscalings with RCA4.

The most important aspects of the surface scheme that are changed with respect to …

COCOA will investigate physical, biogeochemical and biological processes in a combined and coordinated fashion to improve the understanding of the Interaction of these processes on the removal of nutrients along the land-sea interface. The results from the project will be used to estimate …

In 2014, the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) selected SMHI as host institute for the International Project Office for CORDEX (IPOC). The Coordinated Regional Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX) vision is to advance and coordinate the science and application of regional climate downscaling …
