Palaeowinds and depositional conditions from Holocene loess in Sweden and Finland
The nature of deglacial and Holocene wind regimes in Fennoscandia is debated, as is the degree to which wind‐blown loess deposits exist in the region. Loess deposits in Fennoscandia are often relatively thin, discontinuous and less well‐sorted than typical loess, and questions remain over the degree of their post‐depositional reworking and the impact ...

ABSTRACT Hatcheries and stocking programmes have long been a cornerstone of fisheries management, seen as tools for fisheries enhancement and/or conservation of threatened populations. Their use draws controversy, however, from a growing body of research over the last 50 years suggesting that stocking can have negative consequences for wild stocks, and

Late Weichselian and Holocene shore displacement history of the Baltic Sea in Finland
About 62 percent of Finland’s current surface area has been covered by the waters of the Baltic basin at some stage. The highest shorelines are located at a present altitude of about 220 metres above sea level in the north and 100 metres above sea level ...

Effects of the Invasive Round Goby on Swedish Recreational Fishing Values
ABSTRACT The round goby, an invasive fish from the Black and Caspian Seas, has spread to Swedish waters, threatening recreational fisheries. We modeled impacts on the future recreational fishery in Sweden using data from a recreational fishing survey, and estimated effects of the round goby on other fish species. Values attached to recreational fishing

Characteristics of convective snow bands along the Swedish east coast [PDF]
Convective snow bands develop in response to a cold air outbreak from the continent or the frozen sea over the open water surface of lakes or seas. The comparatively warm water body triggers shallow convection due to increased heat and moisture fluxes ...

ABSTRACT The global decline in salmonid stocks has increased the need for knowledge of local adaptations and life history strategies of salmonids. In this study, we used radio‐telemetry tracking data from sea trout populations in two large high‐latitude rivers to model upstream spawning migration speed of trout in response to prevailing environmental ...

Genesis of the Lammi esker (Sothern Finland)
The Lammi esker forms a part of an esker chain stretching NW from the moraines of I Salpausselkä. The described section is about 10 km long. The Lammi esker runs along the axis of a well‑marked trough in the bedrock.

Genes, fish and fisheries: translating science into policy
Abstract The 2024 Annual Symposium of the Fisheries Society of the British Isles reviewed the burgeoning impact of ‘omics’ technologies on fish ecology, management and forecasting. As with life sciences more generally, major advances in speed, cost‐effectiveness and breadth of applications in ‘omics’ has had profound societal and environmental impacts.

Abstract Sea trout Salmo trutta m. trutta L. has high socioeconomic and ecological importance in the Atlantic region; therefore, stocking hatchery‐reared fish is widely practiced for stock enhancement and recovery of wild populations. In this study, fecundity of wild and stocked hatchery‐reared sea trout sampled from the Łeba River (southern Baltic Sea
