outflows, salinity and oxygen levels have been monitored in the Baltic for over 100 years by SMHI and other institutes there is a relatively large amount of data available for these events. Many find it surprising that the measurements show that the inflows are nothing unusual. However the inflows that Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

The advice is therefore if a tsunami approaches, even if the water level appears to drop, leave the beach Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

Wind has a great effect on the water temperature. A sea breeze leads to warmer water at the coast, while an offshore breeze leads to colder nearshore water. This is because when the wind blows towards the land (an onshore breeze) warm surface water is forced inshore. The opposite happens when the Last updated: Apr 23, 2014

These waves are mainly observed as variations in the sea level along the coast or when they meet the coast (tsunami). The speed of a long wave is governed by the depth, and they move faster over deep water. In a depth is 100 m, as found parts of the Baltic Sea, a long wave such as a tsunami would Last updated: Apr 23, 2014
