Quantitative thresholds are used to evaluate if core indicators status is "Achieve", "Fail" or "Not assessed". Good status is achieved when the concentrations of PCB, dioxin and furans are below the threshold values. This dataset displays the result of the indicator in HELCOM Assessment Scale 4 (Division of the Baltic Sea into 17 sub-basins and further division into coastal and off-shore areas and division of the coastal areas by WFD water types or water bodies). Attribute information: "OBJECTID" = Object identification "HELCOM_ID" = Code of the HELCOM scale 4 assessment unit "AULEVEL" = Assessment unit level used for the indicator "Contamination ratio in biota (SCB6)" = Contamination ratio in biota for this substance "STATUS_SCB" = Status of the indicator in biota for this substance (“Achieve”, “Fail” or “Not assessed”) "Contamination ratio in biota (SDX)" = Contamination ratio in biota for this substance "STATUS_SDX" = Status of the indicator in biota for this substance (“Achieve”, “Fail” or “Not assessed”) "Overal status" = Overall Status of the indicator according to one-out-all-out (“Achieve”, “Fail” or “Not assessed”) HELCOM Secretariat data@helcom.fi Oceanographic geographical features GEMET - INSPIRE themes, version 1.0 2008-06-01 geonetwork.thesaurus.external.theme.httpinspireeceuropaeutheme-theme hazardous substance GEMET 2018-08-16 geonetwork.thesaurus.external.theme.gemet-en MADS HOLAS2 2018 Core indicator Core indicator HOLAS2 Hazardous Substances Use constraints: The data and resulting data products (tables, figures and maps) available on the indicator web page can be used freely given that the source is cited.

The COMBINE data stem from regular environmental monitoring programmes of the coastal countries. The assessment protocol is structured in three main parts, 1) changes in log concentrations over time are modelled, 2) check for compliance against threshold value and evidence for temporal change of contaminant concentration per station and 3) a spatial aggregation of status per assessment unit.
