Abstract

The Baltic Sea is a land locked sea located in the Northern Europe. To this south the Baltic Sea border with the European mainland (Russia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Germany, Denmark), while to the north—the Scandinavian Peninsula (Finland and Sweden). The only connection to the North Sea is through the shallow and nerrow Danish Straits and further through the Kattegat and the Skagerrak. The Belt Sea, including the Danish Straits, is the transition zone between the Baltic Sea with the North Sea.
