EU Life IP Rich Waters/LOVA Race for the Baltic

The main part of the Life project has been completed, with a number of contributations to the lake restoration field being produced, including the of the Handbook for measures against internal phosphorus loading (in Swedish). There are many eutrophic coastal bays around the Baltic Sea where it is challenging to determine nutrient sources accurately and thus developement of restoration measures is difficult. To improve on this, a colloaboration with Race for the Baltic was formed to extend the work in the EU Life project by studying four coastal bays: two in Stockholm and two in Blekinge county. This project, supported by LOVA and earlier EU Life funding, is designed to fix this problem via developement of measurment and modeling methods adapted to coastal bays that have exchange of water and nutrients with the Baltic Sea. This will also lead to further development of the handbook mentiioned above.
