The inflow of deep water, not meeting the criteria of a MBI, supplied the Bornholm and the Gdańsk Basins with oxygen in February and March 1991. This inflow affected the distribution of oxygen in the shallow parts of the eastern Gotland Basin as well. However, H2S was observed in the deep water of the Gotland and Fårö Deeps in very high concentrations during the whole year. In May/June, oxygen concentrations above 1 ml/l were observed in the bottom water of the western Gotland Basin (NEHRING & MATTHÄUS, 1991/92).
