Riverine water inflows and the Baltic Sea water volume 1901-1990

Abstract: Abstract. An analysis of riverine outflow into the Baltic Sea is presented for the years 1901 – 1990. The monthly outflows were calculated from the measurements in a number of representative rivers. The analysis included estimation of seasonal and multi-year characteristics of riverine outflows and periodic structure, as well as stochastic and statistical indicators characterising the influence of riverine water on the variability of the sea level and water volume in the basin. The article presents prognostic … Show more

“…Simultaneously, as a consequence of the river runoff increase, outflows of the Baltic Sea water to the North Sea will increase and inflows of highly saline North Sea water will decrease (Cyberski and Wróblewski, 2000). Thus, some part of the additional terrestrial carbon load will be compensated by the increased carbon export to the North Sea and the reduced (2009) carbon import from the North Sea.…”

“…An increase of river water volume, discharged to the Baltic Sea, directly determines the basin water level (Cyberski and Wróblewski 2000) that is the driving force of the Baltic water transport to the North Sea and for blocking inflows from the North Sea in the same time . Therefore, the theoretical value of the uncertainty assigned to the net CO 2 exchange, amounting to the square root of the sum of the squared errors of all components, is significantly larger (4.32 Tg C year -1 ) than the absolute value of the actual flux through the seawater/atmosphere interface (1.14 Tg C year -1 ).…”

“…For 1901-1920, monthly discharges for the basins were calculated from total discharge data to the entire Baltic catchment by Cyberski and Wroblewski (2000) using climatological mean ratios between the basins and the total discharge. After 1921, the reconstruction by Mikulski (1986) of basin-wise river discharge based on 17 rivers is used.…”
