Journal ArticleDOI

Initiation of cyanobacterial blooms in a frontal region at the entrance to the Gulf of Finland, Baltic Sea

TL;DR: A 2-week multidisciplinary study of the physical, chemical, and biological mechanisms controlling the initiation of the late summer blooms of the diazotrophic cyanobacteria, Aphanizomenon jlos-aqua2 Ralfs and Nodularia spumigena Mertens, in the Baltic Sea was carried out in a frontal region at the entrance to the Gulf of Finland in July 1993 as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of upwelling on the pelagic environment and bloom-forming cyanobacteria in the western Gulf of Finland, Baltic Sea

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of coastal upwelling on the late summer pelagic environment, focusing on the two main bloom-forming filamentous cyanobacteria species, Aphanizomenon flos-aquae and Nodularia spumigena, was evaluated on the basis of field observations in July and August 1999 in the western Gulf of Finland.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of a deep chlorophyll maximum of Heterocapsa triquetra Ehrenb. at the entrance to the Gulf of Finland

TL;DR: In this article, the development of a deep chlorophyll maximum (DCM) at a depth of 30-35 m was followed during a 15-d case study in July 1998 at the entrance to the Gulf of Finland.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling of the mesoscale structure of coupled upwelling/downwelling events and the related input of nutrients to the upper mixed layer in the Gulf of Finland, Baltic Sea

TL;DR: In this article, a high-resolution numerical study is undertaken to simulate an upwelling event along the northern coast of the Gulf of Finland, 21-29 July 1999, which was documented well by in situ and remote measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of a subsurface chlorophyll maximum at the entrance to the Gulf of Finland, Baltic Sea

TL;DR: The observed plankton dynamics showed that the pelagial system was “top-down” controlled and that about half the decrease of Chl a was due to a size-specific grazing of ciliates on the dominating flagellates Chrysochromulina spp.
