Research-clusters

BEAM research clusters - five focus areas

Successful rehabilitation of the Baltic environment requires ecosystem management, both at national and international level, since its varied problems are not separate but closely interwoven. Five main research areas have been identified to play a considerable role in producing a sustainable management for the Baltic Sea: 

Combined knowledge

The five research areas are closely connected and will be studied both separately and as one system. To be able to construct a durable management programme for the Baltic Sea, it is necessary to deepen the knowledge on the whole ecosystem, and on how it responds to external driving forces.
