摘要：The Baltic Sea is an ideal natural laboratory to study themethane cycle in the framework of diagenetic processes. Inthis paper we present preliminary geological mapping resultsfrom project Baltic Gas, a research project with the overallaim to contribute to the development of a scientific basis forlong term sustainable use and protection of the Baltic Seaecosystem. The Baltic Sea is a marginal sea with a strongpermanent haline stratification, which leads to oxygen-poorbottom waters, and which is sometimes interrupted by oxygen-rich saltwater flowing in from the North Sea. The history of the Baltic Sea has resulted in deposition of organic-richHolocene marine sediments that overlie glacial, late-glacialand early Holocene organic-poor sediments.
