The present study showed the pollution load on the Gulf of Finland to be about 380 000 t BOD7, 194 000 t Ntot, and 9000 t Ptot annually. Negative temperature (-0.1 C/a) and salinity (-0.1 PSU/a) trends in the deep waters of the Gulf of Finland are evident for the last 15 years. Oxygen and pH trends were respectively about +0.2 ml/l and +0.01 units annually; nutrients exhibited also upward trends, but less obviously
