This dataset contains element concentrations of quantitative element screenings (ICP-MS, 70+ elements) conducted on filtered water samples and the filtered material (cut-off 0.22 μm) from samples taken in the Gulf of Bothnia during 2013 and 2014. The purpose of the study was to observe changes in the dissolved and particulate element concentrations along a slowly increasing salinity gradient. The Gulf of Bothnia was sampled during spring flood and post-flood. Spring flood samples were collected in May and June 2013. Post-flood samples were collected in July 2014. All sampling stations were sampled at depths of 0.5, 5 and 10 m from the coast guard vessel KBV005 in May and June 2013.

The related chemical and geological properties of the ocean.
Collective term comprising the complex chemical relationships involving the atmosphere, climatology, air and water pollution, fuels, pesticides, energy, biochemistry, geochemistry, etc.
The study of the distribution of the amounts of the chemical elements in minerals, ores, rocks, soils, water, and the atmosphere. Also, the study of the circulation of the elements in nature, on the basis of the properties of the atom and ions. A major concern of geochemistry is the synoptic evaluation of the abundance of the elements of the Earth's crust and in major classes of rocks and minerals.
