Ecosystem consequences of cyanobacteria in the Northern Baltic Sea
Article Abstract:
A study to investigate and examine the influence of cyanobacteria of the Baltic Sea on its organisms and ecosystem was conducted. The results show that the changes encountered in the structure and functioning of the Baltic Sea communities during the cyanobacteria bloom season is because of the shift of the grazing pressure on other species by the selective grazers.

Tradeoffs between environmental goals and urban development: the case of nitrogen load from the Stockholm County to the Baltic Sea
Article Abstract:
The leakage of nitrogen (N) from the Stockholm County to the Baltic Sea is analyzed to explain the transaction taking place between the urban development, as well as the environmental goals of humans. The article states that the development of spatial urban planning and other proactive measures can help in maintaining a proper balance between the two issues.

Bacterial diversity and function in the Baltic Sea with an emphasis on cyanobacteria
Article Abstract:
A study to observe the diversity, toxicity and nitrogen fixation in the filamentous heterocystous taxa in the Baltic Sea focusing on the cyanobacteria was conducted. The results verify the phosphorus limitation of the nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria and also focus on the importance of its reduction in the Baltic Sea.
