Extending the knowledge of the regional Earth system in the Baltic Sea region

Baltic Earth strives to achieve an improved Earth System understanding of the Baltic Sea region as the basis for science-based management in the face of climatic, environmental and human impact in the region. Baltic Earth brings together a broad international research community around core scientific issues identified as fundamental to informing societal efforts to achieve sustainability in the region. These “Grand Challenges” are tackled through joint research efforts, workshops, conferences and capacity building events accompanied by a continuous process of synthesis of the current state of knowledge. Communication with stakeholders and research funders aims to ensure impact and relevance of the research. Baltic Earth targets the atmosphere, land and marine environment of the Baltic Sea, its drainage basin and nearby areas with relevance for the Baltic Sea region. “Background”

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

We wish the Baltic Earth community and all scientists and non-scientists in the Baltic Sea region and in the whole world:

A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

We sincerely hope your last year was successful and enjoyable, and may the coming year be the same! There will be some exciting changes coming up in the Baltic Earth world in 2025, and we are happy to share those early in the next year.

All the best from the International Baltic Earth Secretariat
Marcus and Silke
