This dataset represents the integrated assessment of hazardous substances in the Baltic Sea in 2016-2021. This dataset displays the result of the assessment in HELCOM Assessment unit Level 3 (Division of the Baltic Sea into 17 sub-basins and further division into coastal and offshore areas).

This dataset contains the integrated status assessment for seals (grey seals, harbour seals and ringed seals) with and without bycatch for the HELCOM Third Holistic Assessment of the Ecosystem Health of the Baltic Sea (HOLAS 3).

Data represent the ecosystem service quantified benefit estimates in the Baltic Sea in 1x1km grid. Map is based on data submitted for the HOLAS3 data call and the methodology for estimating these benefits is described in the HOLAS 3 ESA thematic assessment report. The process involves the development of separate ecosystem component distribution maps and ecosystem service provision rate maps, which are then multiplied to calculate the estimated delivery of bio-physical benefits.

The dataset contains the compilation of the abundance and distribution of Baltic seals from the data submitted by HELCOM contracting parties to the data call for HOLAS 3. Data was received from DE, DK, EE, FI, PL and SE. The dataset contains a geodatabase with the harmonized data. Data were provided in point, line and polygon format.

This pre-core indicator evaluates the eutrophication status of the Baltic Sea area based on cyanobacterial bloom index. The index is calculated using two types of data: biomass data and Earth observation data. More detailed description on methodology can be found at HELCOM pre-core indicator report and http://www.helcom.fi/Documents/Eutrophication%20assessment%20manual.pdf This dataset displays the result of the indicator in HELCOM Assessment Scale 4 (Division of the Baltic Sea into 17 open sea sub-basins and division of coastal areas to WFD water types or water bodies), but applicable only to certain open sea assessment units. Attribute information: "HELCOM_ID" = Code of the HELCOM scale 4 assessment unit "Country" = country/ opensea "level_2" = name of the subbasin "level_4" = Name of the HELCOM scale 4 assessment unit "Area (km2)" = Area of the HELCOM scale 2 assessment unit “Season” = Season of the indicator (Summer = June-September) “Period” = Assessment unit period start and end year (20162021 = 2016 – 2021) "Indicator value (ES)" = Indicator value calculated for the assessment unit "Standard deviation (STD)" = Standard deviation of data used for calculating ES "Number of samples " = Number of samples (not applicable for cyanobacterial bloom index) "Threshold value (ET)" = Commonly agreed threshold value "Ratio between ES and ET (ER)" = Ratio between ES and ET (in case of indicator with positive response to eutrophication) "ES_SCORE” = Confidence based on the data used for calculating ES "ET_SCORE” = Confidence of target-setting procedure "I_SCORE” = Confidence (%) = average of ES-Score and ET-Score "Indicator Weight" = Indicator Weight in integrated eutrophication assessment “Status” = Status of the indicator (“Achieve”, “Fail”, “Not assessed” or "Not applicable") "AULEVEL" = Assessment unit level used for the indicator "FID_12" = "Indicator" = Indicator name “CONFIDENCE” = Confidence of result based on I-SCORE (“High”, “Moderate”, “Low” or "Not assessed")

This dataset contains the integrated eutrophication status assessment 2016-2021 for the HELCOM Third Holistic Assessment of the Ecosystem Health of the Baltic Sea (HOLAS 3). The assessment is done using the HELCOM Eutrophication Assessment Tool: HEAT by combining assessment unit-specific results from various indicators by three MSFD criteria groups (C1: Nutrient levels, C2: Direct effect, C3: Indirect effect). The assessment is done on HELCOM Assessment Unit level 4: HELCOM Subbasins with coastal WFD water type or water bodies.  The HEAT has been applied for open sea assessment units using HELCOM core indicators and for coastal areas using national WFD indicators. The confidence values have been extracted from HEAT and weighed manually by contracting parties for more accurate estimations for the confidence of the EQRS values presented.  The intervals used to classify the Status are the following: Status class (based on EQRS) High: >= 0.8 to < 1.0 Good: >= 0.6 to < 0.8 Moderate: >= 0.4 to < 0.6 Poor: >= 0.2 to < 0.4 Bad: < 0.2 Confidence class (based on confidence %) High: >= 75 Moderate: >= 50 to < 75 Low: < 50 Attribute specifications: "HELCOM_ID" = Code of the HELCOM scale 4 assessment unit "country": country in which the HELCOM assessment unit is located or a mention to an open sea area "level_2" = Name of the HELCOM assessment unit in scale 2 "Name" = Name of the HELCOM assessment unit in scale 4b "Open_sea" = Name of the HELCOM assessment unit in the open sea "F2_Name" = Name of the HELCOM assessment unit "ER" = Overall Eutrophication ratio "ER_1" = Eutrophication ratio for Nutrients "ER_2" = Eutrophication ratio for Direct effects "ER_3" = Eutrophication ratio for Indirect effects "EQR" = Overall Ecological Quality Ratio for "EQR_1" = Ecological Quality Ratio for Nutrients "EQR_2" = Ecological Quality Ratio for Direct effect "EQR_3" = Ecological Quality Ratio for Indirect effects "EQRS" = Overall Ecological Quality Ratio scaled "EQRS_1" = Ecological Quality Ratio scaled for Nutrients "EQRS_2" = Ecological Quality Ratio scaled for Direct effect "EQRS_3" = Ecological Quality Ratio scaled for Indirect effects "EQRS_Class" = Overall effect "EQRS_1_Class" = Nutrient effect "EQRS_2_Class" = Direct effect "EQRS_3_Class" = Indirect effect "Confidence.Overall_confidence" = Overall confidence "Confidence.C1__from_HEAT_" = Confidence for nutrient effect "Confidence.C2__from_HEAT_" = Confidence for direct effect "Confidence.C3__from_HEAT_" = Confidence for indirect effect "Confidence.C_Class" = Confidence class for overall confidence "Confidence.C_1_class" = Confidence class for confidence for nutrient effect "Confidence.C_2_class" = Confidence class for confidence for direct effect "Confidence.C_3_class" = Confidence class for confidence for indirect effect
