Oxygen debt 2018 (HOLAS 2)

This core indicator evaluates the eutrophication status of the Baltic Sea area based on oxygen debt. The oxygen debt value is calculated based on data reported to HELCOM COMBINE database using script developed in TARGREV project and further developed within EUTRO OPER project. The R-script for calculating oxygen is accessible from https://github.com/ices-tools-prod/HEAT/tree/master/scripts/OxygenDebt


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. Coastal areas were excluded from the shapefile.


Attribute information:

"HELCOM_ID" = Code of the HELCOM scale 4 assessment unit

"Country" = country/ opensea

"level_2" = name of subbasin

"level_4" = Name of the HELCOM scale 4 assessment unit

"Area (km2)" = Area of the HELCOM scale 2 assessment unit

“Name_1” = "Name" = Name of the open sea area

“Season” = Season of the indicator

“Period” = Assessment unit period (20112016 = 2011 – 2016)

"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 in assessment unit

"Thershold value (ET)" = Commonly agreed thershold 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")

“Confidence” = Confidence of result based on I-SCORE (“High”, “Moderate” or “Low”)

"AULEVEL" = Assessment unit level used for the indicator

Statement

The dataset was created in June 2018


Data source: The average for 2011-2016 was estimated using monitoring data provided by the HELCOM

Contracting Parties, and kept in the HELCOM COMBINE database, hosted by ICES (www.ices.dk). Nominated

members of HELCOM STATE & CONSERVATION group were given the opportunity to review the data, and to

supply any missing monitoring observations, in order to achieve a complete dataset.


Description of data: The data includes in-situ temperature, salinity and oxygen profiles, determined as

explained in the HELCOM COMBINE manual. Dissolved oxygen measurements made at the depth below the

halocline were used in the assessment.


Geographical coverage: The observations are distributed in the sub-basins according to the HELCOM

COMBINE programme, added occasionally with data from research cruises.

Temporal coverage: The raw data includes observations throughout the year, during the assessment period

2011-2016.


Data aggregation: The 2011-2016 averages for each sub-basin were produced as inter-annual estimates,

determined using a GLM-GAM procedure to exclude spatio-temporal bias. The oxygen debt calculation

algorithm R-script can be accessed at https://github.com/ices-tools-prod/HEAT#oxygen-debt-indicatorcalculation-scripts
