New Possibilities In The Study Of Coastal Upwellings In The Southeastern Baltic Sea With Using Thermistor Chain

Geography, Environment, Sustainability, 2019
The article gives an analysis of a unique data of the thermistor chain, which installed on the D-6 oil platform in the coastal zone of the Baltic Sea. In total 10 temperature sensors were installed at different depths with a recording  interval of 1 min,

Evolution of photoperiod insensitivity drove the westward expansion of broomcorn millet

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
This research highlights how ancient farming communities adapted crops to challenging environments, enabling the spread of agriculture across Eurasia. By demonstrating that broomcorn millet evolved reduced sensitivity to day‐length, the study explains how this crop could support food production in regions with short growing seasons and long summer days.

Investigating the influence of sub-mesoscale current structures on Baltic Sea connectivity through a Lagrangian analysis

Frontiers in Marine Science
This study explores the impact of sub-mesoscale structures and vertical advection on the connectivity properties of the Baltic Sea using a Lagrangian approach. High-resolution flow fields from the General Estuarine Transport Model (GETM) were employed to

Species distribution modelling of benthic invertebrates in the south-eastern Baltic Sea [PDF]

Baltica, 2012
The distribution of benthic invertebrates is one of the key parameters for the marine spatial planning and management, however traditionally the data on benthic invertebrates are based on point sampling. Recently statistical methods of predictive modelling are used to create maps of species distribution, nevertheless, no comparative analysis of ...

The Evolution of the South-Eastern Baltic Sea Coastline Between 1988 and 2018 by Remote Sensing

Proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Geographical Information Systems Theory, Applications and Management, 2023
his article aims to define and explain the evolution of the coastline in Latvia, Lithuania, and Russia since the late 1980s. Coastal erosion is a critical issue for public authorities and is considered as one of the main environmental problems in the south-eastern Baltic region.

Pushing the Boundaries: Studies on Consumers and Food Demand in the Journal of Agricultural Economics

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We summarize the development of consumer economics and food demand in the Journal of Agricultural Economics over the past 100 years. Even from an early stage, the role of marketing agricultural products in a thriving agricultural sector was recognized within the works published in the Journal.

The Limits of Convergence in the Enlarged Europe: Change in Labour Conditions in a Shipbuilder's Sites in Norway and Romania

British Journal of Industrial Relations, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the 2000s, questions were open on whether the EU eastern enlargement would contribute to upwards or downwards convergence in labour standards, or even to divergence. Over two decades later, it is possible not only to attempt an answer, but also to identify the industrial relations processes that mediate economic integration between widely ...
