''Long-Term Ecological Research: Between Theory and Application'', ''Coastal Lagoons - Darss-Zingst Bodden Chain'', Sect. 12.3.3, Springer, Heidelberg, London, New York, p. 173. (german: Darß-Zingster Boddenkette) is a waterbody on the Baltic Sea coast northeast of Rostock in Germany. It consists of a string of several lagoons or ''bodden'' arranged in an east-west direction that are separated from the open sea by the Fischland-Darß-Zingst peninsula. The surface area of these lagoons is 197 km² and the average water depth is only about two metres. The individual lagoons of the Darss-Zingst Bodden Chain are the: * Saaler Bodden * Bodstedter Bodden * Barther Bodden and * Grabow (listed from west to east; not mentioned here are several smaller stretches of interlinking water). The salt content of the water rises from west to east, because only at the eastern end of the bodden chain is there a link to the Baltic Sea via ...

West Rügen Bodden
The West Rügen Bodden (german: Westrügener Bodden or ''Rügenschen Außenboddenkette'') are a string of lagoons and embayments, known as ''bodden'', in Western Pomerania on the Baltic Sea coast. They lie in the Western Pomerania Lagoon Area National Park west and southwest of the island of Rügen, and east and southeast of Hiddensee. The individual lagoons or ''bodden'' that make up the West Rügen Bodden are the: * Vitter Bodden * Schaproder Bodden * Udarser Wiek * Kubitzer Bodden (listed from north to south; several smaller linking waterbodies are not mentioned) See also * North Rügen Bodden * Darss-Zingst Bodden Chain The Darss-Zingst Bodden ChainMüller, Felix et al.

North Rügen Bodden
The North Rügen Bodden (german: Nordrügener Bodden or ''Rügenschen Innenboddenkette'') are a string of West Pomeranian lagoons, known as ''bodden'', on the Baltic Sea coast of northeastern Germany. They are almost entirely surrounded by the island of Rügen and its peninsulas. For example, in the north they are bounded by the Bug, the peninsulas of Wittow and Jasmund and the spit of Schaabe. To the south is the Muttland, the main body of Rügen Island. Amongst the highest points in the surrounding ridges of terminal moraine are the Rugard (118 m above NN) near Bergen, the Tempelberg (50 m) near Bobbin, the Hoch Hilgor (43 m) near Neuenkirchen, the Banzelvitz Hills (45 m) near Rappin and the Mühlenberg (25 m) between Buschvitz and Stedar. To the west the chain of ''bodden'' has a narrow link to the Baltic in the Vitter Bodden. Through this narrow strait their waters mix with the salty seawater, so that the waters to the east are always brackish. The string of ''bodden'' i ...

Barth, Germany
Barth is a town in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. It is situated at a lagoon (Bodden) of the Baltic Sea facing the Fischland-Darss-Zingst peninsula. Barth belongs to the district of Vorpommern-Rügen. It is close to the Western Pomerania Lagoon Area National Park. In 2011, it held a population of 8,706. History Barth dates back to the medieval German Ostsiedlung, before which the area was settled by Wends of the Liuticians or Rani tribe. Jaromar II, Danish prince of Rügen, granted the town Lübeck law in 1255. In the same document, he agreed to remove his burgh, ''Borgwall'' or ''Neue Burg'', then on the northwestern edge of the town's projected limits. Another Wendish burgh, ''Alte Burg'' near today's train station, was not used anymore. The German town was set up on empty space between the burghs. Not a member of the Hanseatic League, the town never grew to the importance and size of neighboring Hanseatic towns like Stralsund. The last prince of Rügen, Witzlaw III ...

Ribnitz-Damgarten
Ribnitz-Damgarten () is a town in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany, situated on Lake Ribnitz (''Ribnitzer See''). Ribnitz-Damgarten is in the west of the district Vorpommern-Rügen. The border between the historical regions of Mecklenburg and Pomerania goes directly through the town; ''Damgarten'' is the eastern and Pomeranian part, and ''Ribnitz'' is the western and Mecklenburgian part. Geography The town is situated between the two Hanseatic cities Rostock and Stralsund, on the mouth of the river Recknitz. The ''Ribnitzer See'', into which the Recknitz empties, is a bay of the ''Saaler Bodden'' (Bay of Saal). The Saaler Bodden in turn is the south-western end of a chain of bays leading to the Baltic Sea. Touristically relevant is Ribnitz-Damgarten's situation at the southern end of the Fischland, the peninsula dividing the chain of bays from the Baltic Sea. History The town's name derives in the Slavic settlements Rybanis (''ryba'' means ''fish'') and Damgor (''dǫbǔ'' me ...

Recknitz
The Recknitz (historically known as ''Raxa'') is a river in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern in northeastern Germany. The Recknitz's glacial valley stretches as far south as the heights at Glasewitz near Güstrow. The river has no definite source, but rather builds up from streams and drainage ditches. The ditches of the ''Schaalbeke'' and ''Pludderbach'' have their water flow split between Liessow and Laage, but most of the water flows north as the Recknitz, while the lesser flow, called the ''Augraben'', runs south to the river Nebel. The lower Recknitz (from Ribnitz-Damgarten Ribnitz-Damgarten () is a town in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany, situated on Lake Ribnitz (''Ribnitzer See'').

Fischland
Fischland (literally "fish land") is an isthmus on the southern Baltic Sea coast on the Bay of Mecklenburg in northeastern Germany. It is part of the peninsula of Fischland-Darß-Zingst. Fischland was an island until the 14th century and was bounded by the navigable estuarine branches of the River Recknitz: the Permin in the south and the Loop in the north. In more recent times its southern boundary has usually been considered to be the Recknitz Meadowland (''Recknitzer Stadtwiesen'') and the Rostock Heath (''Rostocker Heide''). To the west and east its boundaries are more obvious: on the one side is its active cliffed coast on the Baltic, and on the other the coastline alongside the Saaler Bodden, only a few centimetres above sea level. Fischland is about 5 km long, between 500 metres and 2 km wide and runs from southwest to northeast. The Pleistocene island core, which is subjected to marked changes as a result of water and wind action, consists of glacial sand ...

Loop (inlet)
The Loop or Darss Canal (''Darßer Kanal'') was an inlet of the sea between the lagoon known as the ''Saaler Bodden'' and the Baltic Sea near Ahrenshoop on the German coast. It formed the northern boundary of the region of Fischland. Originally the Loop was the northern estuarine branch of the River Recknitz. The old inlet ran between the present villages of Ahrenshoop and Althagen. The Loop was roughly two metres deep and had posts for mooring boats and barges. Its navigability was frequently curtailed by storms and silting up. Today only a small ditch remains on the former Mecklenburg-Pomeranian border, which runs alongside a main road, the so-called ''Grenzweg'' ("border way"). The cartographer and court astronomer at the Mecklenburg court, Tilemann Stella, described the Loop thus: ''"Between the village of Oldenhagen lthagenand the Arnshope hrenshoop the waters of the Ribnitz river and lake break through into the salty sea. Beyond the beach is a large pile of rock and bric ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Permin
The Permin is a bay in the Saaler Bodden lagoon south of Wustrow in northeast Germany. Originally, the Permin was a channel between the Saaler Bodden and the Baltic Sea and the southern estuarine channel of the River Recknitz. It borders on the Fischland in the south.''Seehäfen'' at fischland-darss-zingst.net. Retrieved 7 January 2022. Because the Permin was navigable in the 13th and 14th centuries with average water depths of around 2 to 3 metres, it formed an important waterway for trade to and from the towns of Ribnitz and Barth, although its navigability was frequently degraded by storms and silting up.
