To ensure that results from contaminant monitoring are interpreted correctly, a long-term perspective and measurements of both plankton and benthic organisms are required. This according to a new study.
At present, a unique research expedition is taking place outside Grisslehamn. The team will study vertical mixing, an important mechanism for understanding circulation in the Baltic Sea.
This project is part of the strategic reserach initiative Baltic Sea Fellows, a network of young researchers working interdisciplinary with Baltic Sea related issues. The project runs from 2018-2022.
