The Major Baltic Inflow of December 2014

International Workshop, May 20, 2015

In parallel to the salt water inflow in late December last year, the IOW oceanographers started an intense and still ongoing measuring campaign to document the progress and the consequences of this largest event since 1951. A first publication is on its way and as we are well aware of a lot of measurements from other institutions, a survey of activities within the frame of an international workshop seems to be of general interest. For this reason, we decided to organize a workshop "Salt Water Inflow 2014" on May 20, 2015, in Warnemünde.

The aim of this workshop will be:

• to identify gaps in measurements
• to discuss joint publications
• to discuss further research projects related to this event.
