The Baltic Sea is a unique ecosystem that is especially sensitive to anthropogenic pressure.
We analysed human pressure in this sea, which may be considered as paradoxes. One of …

This paper investigates the connection between climate change and energy security in
Europe and provides empirical evidence that these issues are the two faces of the same …

In highly seasonal systems, the emergence of planktonic resting stages from the sediment is
a key driver for bloom timing and plankton community composition. The termination of the …

Background Shipwrecks on the Baltic Sea seabed pose a serious threat to the marine
environment. Fuel, ammunition and chemicals in their holds can enter the ecosystem at any …

We simulated the spatial distribution and dynamics of macro plastic in the Baltic Sea, using a
new Lagrangian approach called the dynamical renormalization resampling scheme …

Sinking particles were studied by analyzing samples collected in a sediment trap at 180 m
depth in the Gotland Basin, eastern Baltic Sea between 1999 and 2020. The aim of this …

Turbulent diapycnal mixing is important for the estuarine circulation between basins of the
Baltic Sea as well as for its local ecosystems, in particular with regard to eutrophication and …

Cyanobacterial blooms in the Baltic Sea proliferated in recent decades due to rising sea
surface temperatures, resulting in significant ecological impacts. To elucidate their current …

We report on a pilot study using a CO 2 optode deployed on a Seaglider in the Norwegian
Sea for 8 months (March to October 2014). The optode measurements required drift-and lag …

Coastal wetlands depend on vertical accretion to keep up with sea level rise in cases where
embankment restricts accommodation space and landward migration. For coastal wetland …
