Zostera marina (LC)

Observations of Zostera marina 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.


Zostera marina has been placed to the Red List category of Least Concern (LC) species.


Dataset for download contains spatial grid of the Baltic Sea. Distribution of the species can be found in corresponding name column. Values are coded:

0 = no observations

1 = present before year 1995 or in 1995

2 = present after year 1995

3 = present before and after year 1995

Statement

This dataset displays distribution of Zostera marina according to HELCOM RED LIST assessment based on the following data sources:


The records of species compiled from the Danish national database for marine data (MADS), the database of Estonian Marine Institute (EMI), the German database for macrophyte occurrences (MARIDATA), Finnish, Polish and Russian monitoring data and/or literature, data from Christoffer Boström, and Swedish Species Gateway (www.artportalen.se). For the Swedish coastline the continuous distribution area is partly based on expert view.


(Downloaded from MADS in June 2011, from Artportalen on 27 June 212, from EMI on 5 December 2012)
