| Purpose | |
| Abstract | The main goal of Meteor-cruise M86/1c was to invstigate microbial diversity and microbial activity and potential for DOC-decomposition in the horizontal salinity gradient between Skagerrak and Bothnian Bay as well as within the small-scale vertical redox gradients in the water column of the central Baltic Sea. The Parasound and EM710 systems were operated only in predefined (notified) survey areas: Skagerrak, German EEZ (Mecklenburg Bay up to Arkona Basins) and in the Landsort Deep. Though multibeam data was recorded, it was not the main focus of the cruise and no further information have been provided by the responsible party. |
