Figure Lengend Snippet: Ensemble mean, annual average Secchi depth (in m) for 1976–2097 for selected sub-basins (black line) for BSAP and RCP 4.5. The gray shaded area denotes the range of ± 1 SD among the four ensemble members. The colored lines with solid squares at the beginning and end of the records are the averages for each climate simulation for the periods 1976–2005 and 2068–2097 (Model A—blue, Model B—yellow, Model C—red, Model D—green). The cyan dots are the HELCOM (2013b) thresholds for BSAP’s Good Environmental Status (GES) shown in the year 2021 which is the year in which GES is supposed to be attained. The purple line with open circles is the mean (1997–2006) Secchi depth status from HELCOM (HELCOM 2013b; Table 4.3). The black line with the open circle is the median (1970–2000) Secchi depth from Savchuk et al. (2006; Table 3). The Savchuk values shown for the East Gotland Basin, the North-West Baltic Proper, Bornholm Basin, and Arkona Basin are those reported for the Baltic Proper. For further details see Table 1, but for annual average oxygen debt (in mg L−1). The purple line with circles is the mean (2007–2011) oxygen debt status from HELCOM (2013b). For further details see Table 2

Article Snippet: Based on scenario simulations, nutrient load abatement strategies were adopted by all Baltic Sea neighboring countries facilitated by the Helsinki Commission (HELCOM), i.e., the so-called Baltic Sea Action Plan, BSAP (HELCOM 2013a ).
