Pomeranian Bight

Meyer-Harms, B., and von Bodungen, B. (1997) Taxon-specific ingestion rates of natural phytoplankton by calanoid copepods in an estuarine environment (Pomeranian Bight, Baltic Sea) determined by cell counts and HPLC analyses of marker pigments. Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser. 153, 181-190. 

The Oderbank position (OB in Fig. 6.1) is 5 miles east of the island Usedom in the Pomeranian Bight at a water depth of 15 m. For the first two months (July and August 2003), an Aanderaa RCM7 current meter was deployed at 11 m depth (Oderbank 1), which was immediately resumed by the deployment of an ADCP and a S4ADW current meter mounted together in a bottom frame for about another 3 months (Oderbank 2, Table 6.18). 

During detailed studies in the Pomeranian Bight, satellite data were used to interpret surveys performed for the determination of trace metals within one week during varying wind conditions (Pohl et al., 1998).
