Report of the ICES Working Group of the Baltic Sea
The pollution conditions of the Baltic Sea have been much
discussed during the last years. However, there has been a lack of
virtual information of the conditions as a whole. Therefore the
International Council for the Exploration of the Sea decided in
1968 to establish a Working Group on Pollution of the Baltic, with
the aim to survey the present situation. The survey, presented in
this paper, has been made in close co-operation by representatives
from all countries around the Baltic.
Care has be~n taken to ensure, as far as possible, the accuracy
of the data given, but final responsibility rests upon the national
sources from which they have been derived.
I wish to convey to my Colleagues in the Working Group my great
appreciation for all the work they have laid down to provide
suitable information for the Report.
