STRATEGIC DIRECTIONS OF RESEARCH
I. Ocean impact on climate and climate change
consequences in European seas
II. Natural and anthropogenic variability of the Baltic
environment
III. Contemporary changes in ecosystems of shelf sea
coasts
IV. Genetics and physiology of marine organisms;
the basics of marine biotechnology
Study problems (e.g.)
- Radiation fluxes in the sea - atmosphere system.
- Energetics of primary production.
- Mass transfer by aerosol emission.
- Thermohaline circulation in the Nordic Seas.
- Climate change effects in the Arctic ecosystems.
Study problems (cont. e.g.)
