✦ Synopsis

The surface waves in the Baltic Sea are hindcast with the spectral wave model HYPAS during a 12-month period. The model results show a strong temporal and spatial variation in the wave field due to the physical dimensions of the different basins and the predominant wind field. The highest waves in the area are found in the outer part of Skagerrak, as well as in the central and southern parts of the Baltic Proper. To get significant waves above 6 m high, strong winds (15-20 m/s) must have been blowing for 6 to 24 h from a favourable direction over a deep area.

The highest densities of gobiid larvae along the Finnish Baltic coast from 1974 to 1996 were found in the Åland Islands and the Archipelago Sea. The annual variation in gobiid densities was three‐fold (from 1· 1 to 3·3 larvae m^−2^) with peak densities in the years 1977 and 1992 and the lowest densi
