Description

"This dataset shows model results for the average bottom temperature in the Baltic region in the plant growth season from April to September.

This dataset shows model results for the average bottom temperature in the Baltic region in the plant growth season from April to September. The map was developed by NERI/Denmark for the BSR INTERREG IIIB project BALANCE.

The salinity and temperature data cover stations from the Bothnian Bay to the Baltic Proper, including the Gulf of Finland and the Gulf of Riga. Also stations in the Danish straits, the Kattegat, the Skagerrak and the German Bight were included in the analysis. Throughout the calculations the modelled temperature was adjusted towards observed average temperature (April-August) and salinity (January-December) values from 1999-2004.

For details on the model and the data sources, please refer to Bendtsen, J., Söderkvist, J., Dahl, K., Hansen, J.L.S. & Reker, J. (2007): Model simulations of blue corridors in the Baltic Sea. BALANCE Interim Report no. 9. Available at http://balance-eu.org/xpdf/balance-interim-report-no-9.pdf."
