Removal by sorption and in situ biodegradation of oil spills limits damage marine biota: A laboratory simulation
Article Abstract:
A study to examine and investigate the damage caused to the marine biota of the Baltic Sea by the removal of sorption and due to the in situ biodegradation of the oil spills limits. The results reveal that removal of oil with the cotton grass significantly improves the survival of mussels, which shows that the rapid action in the limiting damage caused by oil spills is extremely important.

Photo-identification, site fidelity, and movement of female gray Seals (Halichoerus grypus) between haul-outs in the Baltic Sea
Article Abstract:
The growing gray seal population in the Baltic sea has led to increased conflicts with fisheries and despite limited data on gray seal ecology, management measures such as culling are implemented. The survey revealed that the majority of seals were that Baltic gray seals exhibit a high degree of site fidelity during the summer and that fidelity to a site lasts for more than a season.

Conceptualizing the Baltic Sea ecosystem: An interdisciplinary tool for environmental decision-making
Article Abstract:
Cooperation between experts from the natural sciences, socioeconomic, and management is needed to bring in stronger interdisciplinary studies in the Baltic Sea to find solutions to the environmental and social problems. A related conceptual model that comprehensively describes the eutrophication process in a visual way is presented to help solve communication problems.
