On Friday, March 14th 2025, the former "Delfin" cinema in Szczecin hosted a pre-premiere screening of a documentary film about the flood of 2024, "Oceania, a ship for special research. Mission: catching up with the flood wave", directed by Odeta Moro.
The film was made during one of the autumn research cruises. It presents the environmental effects and research by scientists from the Institute of Oceanology of the Polish Academy of Sciences, who analyzed the impact of the flood wave on the Baltic Sea on board "Oceania".
The meeting was attended by Assoc. Prof. Karol Kuliński and Prof. Jacek Bełdowski. The conclusions from the research are reassuring - the flood wave did not have a significant negative impact on the Baltic Sea. However, the Szczecin Lagoon suffered, where greater changes in the ecosystem were noted.
The official premiere of the film is planned for April on TVP.

On March 15, we invite you to the Gdynia Aquarium for an extraordinary meeting dedicated to the Baltic Sea and its future! This event has been exceptionally divided into two parts - for children and adults, in order to talk about the sea in a way that is accessible to each of these groups.
During the event, participants will be able to learn the answers to the most pressing questions about the state of the Baltic Sea. It is also an opportunity to understand how climate change is affecting our sea and why discussions related to the Baltic Sea are so controversial.
