Investigations encompassed weather, irradiation, O~ and water balances, salinity, nutrients, chlorophyll a~ light scattering, suspensates, sedimentatiQn, geochemistry, dissolved inorganic C, sediment-water interface fluxes, chlorinated hydrocarbons in the food web, primary production, saprobiology, bacteria, meiofauna, phyto- and zooplankton, diatoms, macro- and microphytobenthos and fish. A method for obtaining undisturbed sediment cores is described. (izs)

The Baltic, the world's largest brackish water body and one of the most polluted, has been the object of marine studies dating back to 1875; pollutionoriented research began in the 1960's. Joint surveys on sewage and industrial wastes input and baseline studies on the impact of Hg, Cd and Pb on certain species of fish and invertebrates, together with data on salinity, water exchange, O: content, H:S, phosphates, nitrogen, etc. make it possible to assess the present status of the marine environment, to wit. the Baltic Sea is not dying. (hbf)
Aspects of the Seto inland Sea's chemistry (salinity, secular changes in elements, pollution, organic matter), physics, geology (muds, sediments, Holocene transgressions), and biology (fisheries, plankton, red tides) are considered with emphasis on Osaka Bay. A paper on the spectrophotometric determination of Li and Rb in seawater is included. (izs)
