This dataset describes fishing intensity for Seine mobile bottom contacting gear in 2010 based on VMS/Log book data processed by ICES Working Group on Spatial Fisheries Data (WGSFD). ICES secretariat collected during 2017 relevant VMS and logbook data for 2009-2016 to produce, as a technical service to HELCOM, updated spatial data layers on fishing intensity/pressure. Improved data quality control checks were implemented. Submitted data across the HELCOM area have improved in quality compared to previous data 2009-2013 published in 2015. Standardized methods were used to produce the requested data layers. The code used to create the data products is available here: https://github.com/ices-eg/wg_WGSFD For further technical information on the advice request, see http://www.ices.dk/sites/pub/Publication%20Reports/Advice/2017/Special_requests/helcom.2017.18.pdf HELCOM secretariat did the following processing to the shapefile provided by ICES: - Conversion to ETRS89LAEA coordinate system - Added feature and attribute "Reported" to display unreported areas.

This core indicator evaluates the status of the marine environment based on the arrival of new non-indigenous species. The new NIS have been detected both through regular environmental monitoring activities and incidental sightings. The data have been verified by national experts. Monitoring is not considered to sufficiently cover all areas of the Baltic Sea and hot spot areas for new introductions (e.g. ports) to allow for the conclusion that in areas where no new NIS have been observed there have not been any new introductions. This dataset displays the result of the indicator in HELCOM Assessment Scale 1 (whole Baltic Sea). Attribute information: "level_1" = Name of the HELCOM scale 1 assessment unit "Area (km2)" = Area of the HELCOM scale 1 assessment unit "Status" = Status of the indicator (“Achieve”, “Fail” or “Not assessed”) "AULEVEL" = Assessment unit level used for the indicator

MORS Environment monitoring stations This data set contains information about stations where HELCOM contracting parties monitor the concentrations of radioactive substance in seawater, sediment, fish, aquatic plants and benthic animals.The Data set was updated in May 2013 after MORS EG 3 2013 meeting according to modifications done in the MORS guidelines as requested by Sweden.

This dataset contains the most up-to-date reported data about hydrographical monitoring stations in the Baltic Sea. Dataset for download contains Baltic Sea hydrographical monitoring stations. Frequency can be found in corresponding name column.

This dataset was collected by HELCOM Secretariat during the HELCOM MORE project and represents monitoring stations in the Baltic Sea. This dataset contains all nutrient stations in the Baltic Sea as reported to the HELCOM MORE project.
