In the Skagerrak and Kattegat, surface water temperatures were normal and sea surface salinity lower than normal. Surface temperatures and salinities were normal for the time of year in the Baltic. Nutrient concentrations in surface waters were normal in most of the region, with the exception of Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

/l in the south, nitrate between 3 and 4 µmol/l in the whole area and finally silicate from 8 µmol/l in the eastern parts to 14 µmol/l in the western parts, which is normal for the season. The surface water was slightly under-saturated with oxygen and the fluorescence was low, indicating that there was Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

Surface temperatures were 3 to 5 oC higher than normal in all areas. All nutrients showed, for the season, normal values, with the exception of silicate that showed enhanced concentrations in the eastern Skagerrak and the northern Kattegat. Oxygen concentrations below 2 ml/l were detected in …

SMHI´s ordinary monitoring programme, began in Göteborg October 18 and ended in Karlskrona October 22. During the first days of the expedition the wind was moderate and came from the north. Then there followed sunny weather with weak winds. In the northern Baltic there was a low pressure with Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

Through a joint NWP production SMHI, MET Norway and FMI shall be a driving force in high resolution short- and very short-range forecasting.  The joint NWP production should also facilitate closer collaboration between the institutes in other areas of common interest, such as pre- and post Last updated: Jul 07, 2022

In the Kattegat phytoplankton sampling according to BMP was performed. Maxima of fluorescence were seen in the Kattegat below the halocline at about 20 m and in the Sound at about 10 m. Almost all over the area there were low concentrations of phosphate and depletion of nitrite and nitrate. …

performed during the cruise. The Skagerrak Both temperature and salinity in the surface water was normal for this season and varied around 17°C and 31-32 psu respectively. The halocline was weakly developed along the coast and the thermocline was found between 50 and 80 meters depths. In the western parts Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

to OSPAR's work with nutrient indicators for the Marine Strategy Framework Directive in the OSPAR maritime area, see Figure 1. Associated error fields from the Diva analysis are also of great interest as they indicate areas with too little or no data. The results may be further investigated to Last updated: Jul 21, 2015

. It influences the aquatic light field substantially. A quantitative description of the dynamics and variability is often required to predict accurately light penetration and hereafter e.g. primary production. The present study is a first attempt to include CDOM into a Baltic Sea model. The model Last updated: Apr 23, 2014
