Current status of the Eastern Baltic cod population Gadus morhua callarias Linnaeus, 1758
A review of scientific literature describing the state and dynamics of the Eastern Baltic cod population over the past 30 years has been conducted. The Eastern Baltic cod is one of the most important commercial species in the Baltic Sea. An ecological regime shift in the early 1990s, resulting from a reduction in the frequency of large North Sea inflows, led to a decrease in salinity and oxygen levels in the bottom layers of the deep basins of the Baltic Sea. This caused a sharp ...
Promising methods for detecting submarine groundwater discharge in the Baltic Sea and experience of their application
Submarine discharge of groundwater (SDGW) is a hydrological process that typically occurs in coastal areas and is defined as the underwater inflow of fresh and brackish groundwater from the continent to the sea. The discharge of waters with a composition sharply different from seawater leads to the formation of hydrochemical anomalies in the near-bottom horizon and alters the composition of bottom sediments. Under different regional conditions, discharge ...
