People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract A keystone species is one whose influence is disproportionate to its abundance, the absence of which would change the dynamics of an ecological or human community. Despite its widespread use in the scientific literature, there is a limited understanding of how the keystone concept is defined or measured, or applied in practice, and especially ...

THE POSSIBLE GEOGRAPHIC MARGIN EFFECT ON THE DELAY OF AGRICULTURE INTRODUCTION INTO THE EAST BALTIC; pp. 149–162 [PDF]
Eesti Arheoloogiaajakiri, 2018 Since domesticated plants moved from moderate Mediterranean climates in south-west Asia where their domestication took place to different latitudes and altitudes, these species have had to endure both genetic and morphotypical changes.

New data on the palaeo–incisions network of the south–eastern Baltic Sea [PDF]
Baltica, 2014 The present study area is located within the south–eastern segment of the Baltic Sea framed by 55o30’–56o30’ N and 19o00’–21o15’E. The area is re-visited with the aim to describe in more detail the geologic prerequisite and development of the palaeo–incisions as well as the timing of their subsequent infillings.

When tiny convective spread affects a midlatitude jet: Spread sequence
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.We investigate spread evolution by mesoscale convection from tiny initial condition uncertainty during a real event. There is significant variation among the systems in their propensity to interact with the jet stream, whereby variability in one system (due to convective and long‐wave radiative heating tendencies) tightly relates to Rossby‐like ...

The wave climate and its seasonal variability in the northeastern Baltic Sea [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2010 The basic features of wave properties in the Baltic Sea and their seasonal variations are estimated by the use of a high-resolution version (3 miles) of the wave model, WAM, driven by adjusted geostrophic winds for 1970–2007 under ice-free conditions ...

Baltica, 2020 The Baltic Sea is characterized by a restricted exchange of deep waters due to permanent stratification of the water column. The aim of the present study is to investigate the distribution of benthic foraminifera in the south-eastern part of the Baltic Sea in relation to environmental parameters. The distribution of benthic foraminifera was analyzed in

Assessment of Coastal Morphology on the South-Eastern Baltic Sea Coast: The Case of Lithuania
Water, 2022 The Port of Klaipėda, located at the Klaipėda strait, divides the Lithuanian coast into two different geomorphological parts: southern—the coast of the Curonian Spit, and northern—the mainland coast. Port jetties interrupt the main sediment transport path along the South-Eastern Baltic Sea’s coast.

UAVs unveil the role of small scale vegetation structure on wader nest survival
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.In this study, we combine high‐resolution vegetation structural metrics derived from unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery with on‐field wader nest survival monitoring. We show that the immediate vegetation height and heterogeneity within a 2‐meter buffer surrounding the clutch of the recorded ground‐nesting wader species positively influenced its ...
