Cruise report from R/V Argos week 45, 2010

Surface water temperatures were normal in the whole area and nutrient levels were also normal expect from silicate which was lower than normal in parts of the Baltic Proper and in the Kattegat. Oxygen levels in the deep water of the Arkona Basin and Hanö Bight were good. In the Bornholm Basin the oxygen...

Cruise report from R/V Argos week 40, 2010

Surface water temperatures and nutrient levels were normal in the whole area. Oxygen levels in the bottom water of the Arkona Basin were good. At BY4 (Christiansö) in the Bornholm Basin new water, with an oxygen content of nearly 4 ml/l, had penetrated in close to the bottom. In the intermediate layers...
