This dataset contains coastal fish key species and key functional group indicator data collected from national coastal fish monitoring programs as coordinated under HELCOM FISH PRO, FISH PRO II, FISH PRO III and EG Coastal Fish and used for HELCOM coastal fish indicator and thematic assessments. The dataset is divided to pointwise observations where values are collected from one single location and polygon areas where values reflect larger area (ICES squares). The data is reported by national representatives of HELCOM EG Coastal Fish and validated annually in the group meeting and hosted by HELCOM Secretariat. Attributes: ID = Unique identifier of observation Country = Country of organization carrying out monitoring (in ISO 2-digit country codes) Organization = Organization carrying out monitoring AreaID = ID of monitoring areas AreaName = Name of monitored area Latitude = Latitude coordinate of monitoring site in WGS84 decimal degrees Longitude = Longitude coordinate of monitoring site in WGS84 decimal degrees L3_AssessmentUnit = HELCOM Level3 assessment unit Year = Year of observation IndicatorName = Indicator which the obsrevation value is related to IndicatorValue = Indicator value as in CPUE/WPUE Species = Key coastal fish species tthat indicator value applies to FunctionalGroup = Key coastal fish functional group that indicator value applies to Method = Monitoring method Geartype = Gear type used for monitoring Season = Season of monitoring RegistrationDate = Date when observation was included in the Coastal fish database

This dataset represents the underlying data on core indicator Abundance of waterbirds in the breeding season 2018. The data is resulting from a data call carried out by HELCOM for State of the Baltic Sea report. Attribute information: "YEAR" = Year of the observation "SPECIES" = Species accepted scientific name "ABUNDANCE" = Abundance count "Country" = Country of observation "SITECODE" = Unique site code

This dataset shows the sub-basins of the Baltic Sea which are used for Baltic Sea Pollution Load Compilation 6.

Observations of Cobitis taenia were collected from the Baltic Sea area for HELCOM Red List species list. The HELCOM Red List of Baltic Sea species in danger of becoming extinct (2013) is the first threat assessment for Baltic Sea species that covers all marine mammals, fish, birds, macrophytes (aquatic plants), and benthic invertebrates, and follows the Red List criteria of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Almost 2800 species were considered in the Red List assessment and about 1750 were evaluated according to the IUCN Red List criteria. Cobitis taenia has been placed to the Red List category of Least Concern (LC) species. The map shows the sub-basins in the HELCOM area where the species is known to occur regularly and to reproduce in coastal areas (HELCOM 2012).

This dataset contains datasets for the Eutrophication assessment developed under the HELCOM Third Holistic Assessment of the Ecosystem Health of the Baltic Sea (HOLAS 3). The dataset contains all Baltic Sea monitoring CTD data reported by HELCOM Contracting Parties to ICES for the HOLAS3 assessment period 2016-2021. The data have been reported using the ICES Ocean reporting format: https://www.ices.dk/data/data-portals/Pages/ocean-format.aspx https://www.ices.dk/data/Documents/ocean/ICES-Oceanography-Data-Submission-Format.zip

Almost 2800 species were considered in the Red List assessment and about 1750 were evaluated according to the IUCN Red List criteria. The map shows the sub-basin in the HELCOM area where the species is known to occur regularly and to reproduce (HELCOM 2012). Pomatoschistus pictus has been placed to the Red List category of Data Deficient (DD) species.
