Changing Salinity Gradients in the Baltic Sea As a Consequence of Altered Freshwater Budgets
; ; (Geophysical Research Letters, 2019)
Climate change is expected to enhance the hydrological cycle in northern latitudes reducing the salinity in the Baltic Sea, a land-locked marginal sea with a large catchment area located in northern Europe. With the help ... -
Impact of Late Cretaceous inversion and Cenozoic extension on salt structure growth in the Baltic sector of the North German Basin
; ; ; ; ; (Basin Research, 2021-10-04)
The Late Cretaceous to Cenozoic is known for its multiple inversion events, which affected Central Europe's intracontinental sedimentary basins. Based on a 2D seismic profile network imaging the basin fill without gaps ... -
Interleaving of oxygenized intrusions into the Baltic Sea redoxcline
; ; ; (Limnology and Oceanography, 2019)
Semi-enclosed marginal seas like the Baltic Sea are often characterized by permanently anoxic deep layers, and may therefore serve as important model systems to study the causes and consequences of the predicted global ... -
Revisiting the Role of Convective Deep Water Formation in Northern Baltic Sea Bottom Water Renewal
; ; ; (Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2020)
Deep water renewal and ventilation of the Baltic Sea is commonly considered to occur solely via saltwater inflows from the North Sea. However, recent analysis of geophysical and sediment proxy data suggests convective deep ... -
Spatial and temporal dynamics of water isotopes in the riverine‐marine mixing zone along the German Baltic Sea coast
; ; ; ; ; (Hydrological Processes, 2022-09-28)
River estuaries are characterized by mixing processes between freshwater discharge and marine water masses. Since the first are depleted in heavier stable isotopes compared with the marine realm, estuaries often show a ... -
Structural Evolution at the Northeast North German Basin Margin: From Initial Triassic Salt Movement to Late Cretaceous‐Cenozoic Remobilization
; ; ; ; ; (Tectonics, 2020-07-14)
In this study, we investigate the regional tectonic impact on salt movement at the northeastern margin of the intracontinental North German Basin. We discuss the evolution of salt pillows in the Bay of Mecklenburg in the ...
