From June 30 to July 14, 2021, the next voyage of one of the flagships of the Russian scientific fleet - the vessel "Akademik Sergei Vavilov", carried out by the Shirshov Institute of Oceanology of RAS (IO RAS). All tasks stipulated by the flight program were completed. The route of the expedition passed through the entire Baltic - from the southeastern part through the Central Baltic to the Gulf of Finland. Thanks to the permits received from the Baltic countries, studies were carried out not only in Russian waters, but also in Finnish and Swedish waters, which is extremely important for monitoring the state of the Baltic ecosystem as a whole, and not its individual basins, because nature knows no boundaries.

On July 30, 2021, an outstanding scientist in physical oceanography, laureate of the Makarov Prize, Mikhail Koshlyakov has passed away. He was Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Honored Professor of the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, Chief Scientist, the founder and the first Head of the Laboratory of Marine Currents the Shirshov Institute of Oceanology of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

On June 12, 2021, in the 90th year, a major Russian oceanologist, one of the founders of modern geophysical hydrodynamics, professor, doctor of physical and mathematical sciences Vladimir Moiseevich Kamenkovich passed away. For many years his scientific activity was associated with the Institute of Oceanology

On July 15, 2021, at the age of 81, a famous German scientist in the field of marine geology and paleooceanology of the Arctic, founding director of the Institute of Marine Sciences of the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (GEOMAR, Kiel) and former director of the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research (AWI, Bremerhaven) J?rn Thiede.

On April 30, 2021, the leading researcher of the Laboratory of Large-Scale Variability of Hydrophysical Fields of Shirshov Institute of Oceanology of RAS, candidate of geographical sciences Galerkin Leonid Isaakovich. He is one of the most honored veterans of our Institute.
