Palaeoecological Conditions in the South-Eastern and Western Baltic Sea during the Last Millennium

open access: yesQuaternary
We present the reconstruction of palaeoenvironmental conditions in the Gdansk, Bornholm, and Arkona Basins of the Baltic Sea over the last millennium. A multiproxy study (including geochemical, XRF, grain size, AMS, and micropalaeontological analyses) of five short sediment cores was performed.

No evidence of Calanus reorganization across three Northeast Atlantic transects during 30 years of monitoring

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2026.
Abstract Reports have suggested dramatic shifts in the calanoid assemblage of the Northeast Atlantic, with warm‐water species expanding northwards at the expense of cold‐water congeners. This is considered a serious threat to lipid‐fueled higher trophic levels, as warm‐water copepods are typically smaller with lower lipid content.

Spatiotemporal Variability and Large‐Scale Drivers of Storm Surge Extremes on the Northwestern European Shelf

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Extreme Sea Level (ESL) poses a high risk to coastal communities and infrastructure, with its frequency and intensity projected to increase in the future. In this study, we focus on the storm surge component of sea level variability, a key contributor to extreme still water levels during storms.

Reconstructing the Holocene Development of Lake Chaika as an Example of Wetland Formation within the Sand Spit Environment Dynamics: A Case Study from the Curonian Spit, Southeastern Baltic, Russia

open access: yesRussian Journal of Earth Sciences
The paper provides original data that shed light on the formation dynamics of Lake Chaika, which is situated in the central part of the Curonian Spit and is the only large water body in the sand spits of the southeastern Baltic.

Coastal Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Silicon Sources: Integrating Land, Sea, and Human Inputs

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Land‐based human activities have greatly increased inputs of nutrients (nitrogen [N] and phosphorus [P]) to the coastal zone, while also decreasing silicon (Si) export. Here we present a novel synthesis of N, P, and Si sources to coastal waters and use that data set to evaluate: (a) the amount, global spatial distribution, and proportion of N,

Investigating Layered Cratonic Lithosphere in the Fennoscandian Shield

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Cold, thick, and chemically depleted lithosphere with high seismic velocity and low attenuation characterizes continental cratons. However, discrepancies between xenolith‐based thermal constraints and those inferred from surface‐wave seismic models, together with the widespread observation of mid‐lithosphere discontinuities, challenge the ...

The Importance and Mechanics of Near‐Seafloor Oxygenation Events in Shallow Coastal Environments

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Bottom‐water oxygen (O2) possibly constitutes the strongest regulating factor on ecosystem function of the seafloor environment. The conventional view of bottom‐water O2 regulation in temperate regions is a strong seasonal variability imposed by deposition of fresh, labile organic carbon following the spring and fall plankton bloom generating ...

Linking Tectonics and Cratonic Vertical Motions: Deep‐Time Thermochronology Reveals >1,000 Myr of Low‐Temperature Conditions in Southeastern Finland

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The Fennoscandian Shield potentially hosts the longest continuous habitable conditions for Earth's deep biosphere. Billion‐year equilibrium freeboard conditions of cratons and the longevity of deep biosphere microbial communities are directly related through the thermal histories of rocks that host these communities.

Variability in the saline water exchange between the Baltic and the Gulf of Gdansk by the sigma-coordinate model

open access: yesOceanologia, 2003
A three-dimensional baroclinic sigma-coordinate model was applied to study the circulation and thermohaline variabilityin the coastal zone in the south-eastern Baltic Sea.

Wildlife border passages in contested transboundary landscapes—Mitigating barriers in Białowieża Forest World Heritage Site

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 9, September 2026.
While border infrastructure disrupts wildlife movement, conservation interventions need not hinge on resolving the broader conflicts that created these barriers. Instead, targeted measures—including wildlife passages through existing barriers, improved landscape permeability at rivers and less hazardous security technologies—can help mitigate ...
