Line 1:
Line 1: − The Baltic sea is connected to the [[North Sea]] via the [[Kattegat]] and [[Skaggerak]] between Sweden and Denmark.+ − − The northern Baltic in particular is of extremely low salinity, being diluted by the run-off of many rivers and the heavy regional rainfall, permitting many freshwater fish, such as the [[pike]], to inhabit its northern arm, the [[Gulf of Bothnia]]. Other important inlets are the Gulf of Riga and the Gulf of Finland. Much of the northern Baltic is frozen in winter. − − Countries possessing Baltic coastlines are [[Sweden]], [[Finland]], [[Russia]], [[Estonia]], [[Lithuania]], [[Latvia]], [[Poland]], [[Germany]] and [[Denmark]]. − − Important cities and ports of the Baltic include [[Stockholm]], [[Helsinki]], [[Saint Petersburg]], Tallinn, Riga, Gdansk, Lubeck and Kiel. − − Surrounded by a number of industrial cities, and with little mixing of its waters with other seas, the Baltic is amongst the most heavily polluted seas on Earth. − − [[Category:Seas]]
