Cruise report from R/V Argos week 11, 2010

Surface water temperatures were below normal in the central Skagerrak and in the Kattegat and Baltic Proper. Surface nutrient concentrations were low in the Skagerrak and Kattegat. Otherwise surface nutrients were normal in most areas with the exception of phosphate concentrations, which were above normal...

Cruise report from R/V Argos week 49-50, 2009

Surface nutrient concentrations above the halocline in the Kattegat were low, due to an ongoing bloom. Enhanced surface phosphate concentrations were recorded in most parts of the Baltic Proper. An inflow through the Sound, calculated to 35 km3, occurred from November 15th to December 1st, giving bottom...

Cruise report from R/V Argos week 41, 2009

Surface phosphate concentration was above normal in Kattegat, the Sound and in the western and southern part of the Baltic. In the Arkona Basin. the water below the halocline was well oxygenated with levels round 4 ml/l. In the rest of the Baltic Proper oxygen concentrations below 2 ml/l were observed...

Cruise report from R/V Argos week 38, 2009

Nutrient concentrations were, with few exceptions, normal throughout the investigated area. In the western part of the Arkona Basin the water below the halocline was well oxygenated with levels exceeding 4 ml/l. In the rest of the Baltic Proper oxygen concentrations below 2 ml/l were observed at depths...

Cruise report from R/V Argos week 34, 2009

The nutrient concentrations in the surface water were normal throughout the monitored area, with the exception of elevated phosphate oncentrations in the Arkona Basin and silicate concentrations slightly above normal in the western and eastern Gotland Basin. In the southeast Baltic Proper and in the...
