The book is a re- flection on rising interest of international water expert community to the Kaliningrad Oblast and to results of international projects imple- mented by Kaliningrad organizations and their foreign partners in the field of water management. Water quality in the Baltic Sea and especially in its coastal zone is mostly determined by quality of water in the catchment basin. Waters entering the Baltic from the territory of the Kaliningrad Oblast drain areas of Poland and Lithuania as well. Northern part of the Oblast belongs to watershed of the Neman River, which enters the Baltic in Lithuania. Thus, water resources of the Oblast are fully transbound- ary, and responsibility on quality of inner and coastal waters is shared between the Kaliningrad Oblast, Lithuania and Poland. Analysis made by (Chubarenko, Alexeev, 2005)* revealed the need in systematic col- lection of information about transboundary waters of the Kaliningrad Oblast (marine, coastal, inland). It was a starting point for the decision to work on the book, which aim is to show the main characteristics of transboundary river basins and shared inner coastal waters (lagoons) in the south-east part of the Baltic Sea. An important step in “opening” the information, which before was only accessible in Russian, to international audience was done by short brochure “Kaliningrad Oblast Water Bodies: Environmental Assessment” issued by Kaliningrad experts during the Tacis project ENVRUS 9803 “Water Environmental Monitoring and Management in the Kaliningrad Oblast”. The present book continues this tradition and presents an information on waters of the Kaliningrad Oblast more widely and deeply. * Chubarenko, B.V., Alexeev, F.E.

Kaliningrad. 5 Preface Chapter 1 of the book presents oceanographic, hydrological and geographic overviews of ecological conditions in the main transbound- ary water basins and water bodies of the Kaliningrad Oblast of the Russian Federation as well as in the coastal waters of the Baltic Sea. Chapter 2 gives examples of legal and organizational prerequisites for transboundary cooperation. Case studies presented in Chapter 3 introduce some specific important problems for transboundary waters and land territories of the South-East Baltic. Collection of papers for this book started in 2005 from (Kessler P., Kondratenko S., Durkin M.), other papers were submitted during 2005–2007. Preparation of the book was started within the frame of the Tacis Project “Seagull RC—Russian component of the development strat- egy for Euroregion Baltic”, No. 61.131/90 (2005–2006) and Seagull DevERB INTERREG project (2005–2006, working package 2 “Wa- ter resources”). The work was finished with support of the Tacis Proj- ect “Sustainable Development Indicators for ICZM in the South-East- ern Baltic (SDI-4-SEB)”, 2006/131-758 (2007–2008), and the grant No. 08-05-01023 of the Russian Foundation for
