Factors regulating the coastal nutrient filter in the Baltic Sea
The coastal zone of the Baltic Sea is diverse with strong regional differences in the physico-
chemical setting. This diversity is also reflected in the importance of different biogeochemical …

[HTML][HTML] Seafloor sediments as microplastic sinks in the northern Baltic Sea–negligible upward transport of buried microplastics by bioturbation
Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous in the marine environment. High concentrations of MPs
are found from seafloor sediments, which have been proposed to act as their final sinks …

Re-thinking the “ecological envelope” of Eastern Baltic cod (Gadus morhua): conditions for productivity, reproduction, and feeding over time
Hypoxia is presently seen as the principal driver behind the decline of the former dominating
Eastern Baltic cod stock (EBC; Gadus morhua). It has been proposed that both worsening …
