The Baltic Sea drainage basin is roughly four times the surface area of the sea itself. About 48% of the region is forested, with Sweden and Finland containing the majority of the forest, especially around the Gulfs of Bothnia and Finland.

The drainage basin of the lake is also divided between Finland (804 km2) and the Russian Federation (215 km2). The mean depth is 7.9 m on the Finnish side, and 7.0 m on the Russian side, and the maximum depth of the lake is 26 m (on the Finnish side).

The main European watershed is the drainage divide ("watershed") which separates the basins of the rivers that empty into the Atlantic Ocean, the North Sea and the Baltic Sea from those that feed the Mediterranean Sea, the Adriatic Sea and the Black Sea.

The drainage basin of the Baltic Sea is large, four times the size of the sea. Nearly 90 million people in 14 different states live in the drainage basin. Nine countries border the Baltic Sea: Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Russia.

This 'basemap' displays the extent of the drainage basin (the boundary for the water that ends up in the Baltic Sea), and the countries in the region. The drainage basin represents all water that drains into the sea, through rivers and ground water.

Nov 1, 2024 · Map of the Baltic Sea drainage basin, divided into the subcatchments used for nutrient fate modelling. Catchments dominated by agriculture are filled with shades of green, boreal catchments with shades of brown.

We present an updated, harmonized hydrologic base map of the entire Baltic Sea Drainage Basin (BSDB), including 634 subdrainage basins. The updated map has a level of detail approximately 5 to 10 times higher than the current standard and includes various spatial-aggre- gation possibilities of relevance for water management.

There are 14 larger international river basins within the Baltic Sea Drainage Basin. These river basins vary in size, number of countries sharing the basins, environmental problems experienced and the way they are managed.

The Baltic Sea Drainage Basin The Baltic Sea region is covered in primarily forested land and crop land, in the taiga and temperate forest regions. Agricultural land is a main driver for nutrient inputs to the Baltic Sea, and thus eutrophication, and is thus relevant.
