The aim the international conference “Coping with Uncertainty<\/a>” (Sigtuna, 15\u201317 November 2009) was to discuss implications of uncertainty at science\u2013policy interfaces connected with environmental, social and economic risks in the Baltic Sea region. Complexity, uncertainty and socio\u2013political ambiguity are key challenges in modern environmental governance. Integrated approaches are needed in order to foster collaboration between diverse sets of actors, over wide range of issues, emphasizing sustainability, human health and ecosystem integrity.<\/p>\n The Tallinn team presented three papers aiming at creating a technology that would provide a substantial decrease of remote environmental risks (e.g. ship\u2013caused pollution that frequently affects vulnerable areas far from the accident site) by minimizing the consequences of potential accidents. The central idea is smart use of the existence of statistically heterogeneous “Towards the use of currents for reducing anthropogenic risks for the Baltic Sea coasts<\/a>” (T.
