Weak inflows in December 1999 and February 2000 led to the renewal of the Bornholm Basin deep water in spring. From August onwards, hydrogen sulphide was measured in that basin up to mid-November. In the eastern Gotland Basin, anoxic water covered the layer between bottom and 120 – 125 m all the year round. In the deep water of the western Gotland Basin, oxygen depletion has continued since 1993. Since August 1999, hydrogen sulphide has been partly present in the western basin deep water (MATTHÄUS et al., 2001b, 2001c).
