High frequency model time series are produced by model restarts using the MOM4 option of<br />

restricted output for conned areas and periods.<br />

In this study the 5-day mean values of a model run for the period September 2002 to September<br />

2009 were used to calculate volume and salt transports through three transects across Stolpe<br />

Channel (54.9 − 55.7 ◦ N, 17.5 ◦ E), the Gdansk Basin (55 ◦ N, 18.4 − 19.9 ◦ E) and across the<br />

Hoburg Channel (56 ◦ N, 18.2 − 19.6 ◦ E). Positions are marked in Fig. 4.18. For the EGB time<br />
