The new report from the United Nations Environment Programme, Emissions Gap Report, states that the world has so far failed to slow down climate change sufficiently. For the ocean, this means dying corals, migrating species and even higher temperatures. - Cod may abandon the North Sea and the Baltic Sea altogether, says Kerstin Johannesson, professor of marine ecology at the University of Gothenburg.
Methane from the exploded Nord Stream pipeline has spread to large parts of the southern Baltic Sea. Over 20 marine protected areas are affected. This is shown by a new study. – How long the methane stayed in the sea and how far it was able to spread was quite striking to me, says Bastien Queste, associate professor in oceanography and co-author of the study.
Swedish eel fishing will be completely stopped during the coming winter months. The greatest impact will be in the Öresund, where eels usually wander past on their way out of the Baltic Sea during this period.
