Small inflows in December 1993 and March 1994 in combination with the very strong MBI in January 1993 terminated the 16-year stagnation in the central Baltic. The inflows caused a significant improvement of the oxygen conditions in the eastern Gotland Basin deep water and led to the highest oxygen concentrations since the 1930s (Fig. 3). The favourable oxygen conditions continued until the end of the year (NEHRING et al., 1995a, 1995b).
