Publication of Marginal Seas Task Group’s members

The DDE Marginal Seas Task Group published in co-operation with the “Baltic Earth” earth science network https://www.baltic-earth.eu/ a Special Issue “Earth system changes in marginal seas”. https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/oceanologia/vol/65/issue/1. This Special Issue combines the results of two conferences with a similar scope: the 3rd Baltic Earth Conference “Earth system changes and Baltic Sea coasts”, held online on 2 and 3 June 2020, and the International Conference “Marginal Seas — Past and Future” (2nd Marginal Seas Expert meeting), also held online on 16 and 17 December 2020. The conferences are strongly interrelated in terms of scientific content.
6 of the manuscripts have been prepared by members of the DDE Marginal Seas Task Group:
