Preface

The Baltic Sea is a unique ecosystem characterised by pronounced environmental gradients,particularly with respect to salinity and climate. The biological and evolutionary features ofMare Balticum as a large meeting place for marine and freshwater organisms have fascinatedscientists for centuries. The ecological interest in the Baltic Sea has been additionally fuelledby anthropogenic pressures on the ecosystem structure and functioning exerted by economicactivities in the drainage area and by global-scale processes. The collective knowledge onBaltic Sea biology and ecology is available in a wealth of scientific journal articles and books,and the volume of this literature has been increasing almost exponentially over the last 50years. Consequently, the Baltic Sea is renowned as one of the most intensively studiedecosystems in the world. It comes then as a paradox that a comprehensive international bookon the basic biology and ecology of the Baltic Sea has not been available to generations ofstudents interested in the Baltic Sea. The need for a modern science-based textbook has beendiscussed for more than 15 years, primarily within the Baltic Marine Biologists (BMB), anon-governmental organisation credited with arranging the biannual Baltic Marine Biologistssymposia since 1968 (from 2001 under the umbrella of the biannual Baltic Sea ScienceCongresses). The idea born in the BMB has now materialised in the form of this textbook.

The sheer broadness of the subject matter makes it essentially impossible for only one or afew persons to write such a book. Therefore, the approach chosen was to pool the knowledgeof 92 authors, with all of them active scientists and experts in their respective fields, and nearlyall of them teaching at the universities around the Baltic Sea. Rather than writing a series ofreview papers, the overall objective was to create an integrated book that would introduce astudent at the MSc and PhD levels to the basic knowledge, facts and processes important forunderstanding life in the Baltic Sea. This knowledge should, on the one hand, give a student(and an interested reader) an overview of the Baltic Sea ecosystem’s structure and functionand, on the other, become a starting point from which to begin exploring individual aspectsof the Baltic Sea ecosystem structure and function in more detail.

Together we have made a concerted effort to produce a book we wished existed when wewere students ourselves. Although the book’s contents are based on our own perception ofwhat is important to know about the biology and ecology of the Baltic Sea, the process ofputting this book together was not only a matter of writing down what we teach our students.As scientists we are trained to not only generate new knowledge but also critically discussscientific results. Although the knowledge presented in this book is mostly based on publishedpeer-reviewed scientific literature, in the course of the editorial work many issues emerged thatneeded to be discussed, between the authors and between the authors and the editors. This isbecause we work in different parts of the Baltic Sea, as well as in nine different countries, witheven more languages and with somewhat different scientific traditions. Given this background,it came as no surprise that many of the authors not only contributed with their respective partsof a book chapter but also participated in an “intercalibration exercise” with respect to theterminology used and scientific opinions expressed. Although it was not always possible tofully agree, the contents of the book have greatly benefitted from these fruitful discussions aswell as from an extensive peer-review procedure applied to all the chapters.

The overall focus of the book is on knowledge about the conditions for life in brackishwater and the functioning of the Baltic Sea ecosystem. It highlights biological variation alongthe unique environmental gradients of the brackish Baltic Sea Area (the Baltic Sea, Belt Seaand Kattegat), especially those of salinity and climate. Throughout the book, we follow anecosystem approach. Rather than focus on separate topics regarding e.g. plankton, fish orbirds, or environmental issues such as eutrophication or fisheries, the chapters focus onprocesses and subsystems. Ecological compartments and environmental issues are treatedjointly with the processes and subsystems when relevant. Some overlap between chapters hasbeen allowed when appropriate, e.g. with respect to an issue viewed from different angles or ina different context.

Part I of the book presents the challenges for life processes and ecosystem dynamics thatresult from the Baltic Sea’s highly variable recent geological history and geographical iso-lation. Part II explains interactions between organisms and their environment, includingbiogeochemical cycles, patterns of biodiversity, genetic diversity and evolution, biologicalinvasions and physiological adaptations. In Part III, the subsystems of the Baltic Seaecosystem–the pelagic zone, the sea ice, the deep soft seabeds, the phytobenthic zone, thesandy coasts, estuaries and coastal lagoons–are treated in detail with respect to the structureand function of communities and habitats and consequences of natural and anthropogenicconstraints, such as climate change, discharges of nutrients and hazardous substances. Finally,Part IV discusses monitoring and ecosystem-based management to deal with contemporaryand emerging threats to the ecosystem’s health.

In addition to the main text, the book also contains numerous figures, photographs andboxes with additional information about e.g. ecological principles, methodology or certainspecies. Each chapter ends with five review questions and five discussion questions for use indiscussion seminars. The review questions serve as a control of how the subject matter of thechapter has been understood and assimilated by the reader. The discussion questions aredesigned to trigger critical thinking about the chapter contents in a wider perspective.

Throughout the book, the usage of geographical names is based primarily on the com-prehensive version of the “Times Atlas of the World” (Times Books, London, 9th Edition1994), in which the names are most often spelled in original languages for water bodies withincountries but in English for international waters. This is the reason why we write about e.g. theriver Wisła rather than “Vistula” and the Storebælt rather than the “Great Belt”, but we do use“Bothnian Bay” and not the Swedish or Finnish name for this water area because it is sharedby Sweden and Finland. The taxonomy is based mainly on the following databases: WorldRegister of Marine Species (WoRMS, http://www.marinespecies.org), the database of ter-restrial, marine and freshwater alga “AlgaeBase” (http://www.algaebase.org), the plant speciesdatabase “The Plant List” of the Kew Botanical Garden (http://www.theplantlist.org) and thebacterial database “Bacterial Diversity” of the Leibnitz Institute DSMZ-German Collection ofMicroorganisms and Cell Cultures (https://www.dsmz.de).

We dedicate this book to all past, present and future Baltic Marine Biologists to honour allthose people on whose work the contents of this book are based and to provide a strongencouragement to new generations of scientists who will discover things about the Baltic Seawe do not yet know today.

Pauline Snoeijs-Leijonmalm is Professor of Marine Ecology atStockholm University, Sweden. Her research interests are biodi-versity and food-web interactions. Since 1982 she has worked onthe coastal and pelagic systems of the Baltic Sea and also since2002 on sea-ice ecology in the Central Arctic Ocean. For morethan 25 years she has taught courses on Baltic Sea ecology at theUniversities of Uppsala and Stockholm.

Hendrik Schubert is Professor of Aquatic Ecology at theUniversity of Rostock, Germany. His research interest is brackishwater ecology with a focus on the ecophysiology of autotrophs.Since 1998 he has also been working on the biogeography ofaquatic macrophytes, exploiting their potential for bioindicationof the ecological status of aquatic ecosystems. He has taughtaquatic ecology at the Universities of Greifswald and Rostock forover 20 years.

Teresa Radziejewska is Associate Professor at the Faculty ofGeosciences, University of Szczecin, Poland. Her researchinterests are centred on the ecology and diversity of benthiccommunities, with a particular focus on the meiobenthos, indifferent habitats (from coastal waters to deep-sea areas) as wellas on bentho-pelagic couplings, environmental monitoring andconservation issues.
