Zirkon (ZrSiO4) och baddeleyit (ZrO2) är två vanliga zirkoniuminnehållande mineral som båda är viktiga för U-Pb-geokronologi. Zirkon är stabilt under kiselmättade förhållanden medan baddeleyit under kiselmättade förhållanden torde reagera med det tillgängliga kislet och bilda zirkon. Trots detta har baddeleyit observerats som interna domäner i zirkon i kiselmättade bergarter från exempelvis sydväsZircon (ZrSiO4) and baddeleyite (ZrO2) are two common zirconium bearing minerals which are important for U-Pb geochronology. Zircon is stable at silica saturated conditions, while baddeleyite should react with the free silica to form zircon under the same conditions. Yet, baddeleyite have been observed as intergrowths within zircon grains in silica saturated rocks, e.g. from southern West Greenlan

Övergödningen är ett av de största hoten mot Östersjöns miljö. Den orsakar inte bara algblomning under sommarhalvåret utan även syrebrist (hypoxi). Utbredningen av syrefria bottnar i Östersjön har ökat fyrfaldigt sedan 1960-talet till följd av ökade utsläpp av näringsämnen, så som fosfor och kväve. Undersökningar av långa sedimentkärnor i Östersjön visar dock att dagens syrebrist inte är unik utanThe Baltic Sea is suffering from bad ecosystem health due to strong impacts of anthropogenic activities. Since 1960, the hypoxic (< 2mg/l dissolved oxygen) area has expanded to c. 49 000 km2, resulting in an amplified eutrophication, which severely threats the ecosystem of the Baltic Sea.
