Ocean Station Data (Ship-based and Fixed), including CTD, from the Baltic Sea, Gulf of Bothnia, and Gulf of Finland
Entry ID: FIMR_STATION_CTD

[ Update this Record ]
Summary

Oceanographic Station Data (ship based) is available for the Baltic Sea, for
the time period 1898 to the present (CTD casts available only from 1977 to the
present). Principal parameters are temperature, salinity, 02 and (after 1962)
also nutrient data, hydrogen sulphide, silicate and pH. These data are at
discrete levels, mostly from Nansen or other bottle casts.

Fixed Oceanographic Stations Data are available for the Gulf of Bothnia and
Gulf of Finland for the time period 1910-present. Classical oceanographic
station data is collected near the coast observed on regular basis. Temperature
and salinity observations are taken from fixed discrete levels, measured at
about 10-day intervals.
