  • Location of water course modifications (trenching, culverting, canalisation). The data was made available by HELCOM Contracting Parties in response to data request. The data was received from Estonia, Finland and Poland. Data reported by Finland and Poland as water course modification were interpreted as pipelines and were included in HELCOM HOLAS 2 Pipelines dataset. The activity was declared as not relevant in Germany and Lithuania. From Latvia, Russia and Sweden no data was reported.

  • Distribution of Fucus sp. based on data submission by HELCOM contracting parties. Mainly pointwise occurrences of Fucus were submitted, originally gathered in national mapping and monitoring campaigns, or for scientific research purposes. From Estonian waters, a predictive model was used (200m resolution), that was converted to presence/absence using minimized difference threshold (MDT) criteria. All data (Fucus points and the raster presenting predicted presence of Fucus) were generalized to 5km x 5km grid cells.

  • Mudflats and sandflats not covered by seawater at low tide (according to Habitats Directive Annex I) are often devoid of vascular plants, usually coated by blue algae and diatoms. They are of particular importance as feeding grounds for wildfowl and waders. The distribution map is based on data submission by HELCOM contracting parties. Only Denmark, Germany and Estonia reported occurrences of mudflats and sandflats. Most of the submitted data is based on modelling and/or GIS analysis. Data coverage, accuracy and the methods in obtaining the data vary between countries.

  • Data of fish farming facilities along the Baltic coast. Annual and average finfish production and nutrient load (total phosphorus and total nitrogen) is given, if known. The data was made available by HELCOM Contracting Parties in response to data request. The data was received from Denmark, Finland, Germany and Sweden. The activity was declared as not relevant for Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland, thus there is no activity within those Contracting Parties. No data received from Russia. Nutrient inputs from fish farms in Denmark are calculated on the basis of production data. From Germany only the locations for the fish farming facilities are given. Information on the annual production and nutrient loads are confidential for reasons of competition and not accessible. Some numbers that were missing on nutrient input in Sweden have been calculated by SCB, Statistics Sweden (red numbers) based on average input/ amount produced fish. No exact area (km2) of the finfish mariculture was available, hence an estimate is given if been possible to calculate. Attribute specification and units: X_ETRS89: X coordinate point Y_ETRS89: Y coordinate point Subbasin: Baltic Sea sub basin Country: Country id (DK = Denmark, FI = Finland, SE = Sweden) County: County Name: Name of the fish farming company Comments: Notes regarding the data Area: Estimated area (km2) of finfish mariculture (value is given, if information was available) Pr_Sum_ton: Total (Sum) production in tonnes Pr_Av_ton: Average production (tonnes)/year P_Sum_ton: Total phosphorus load in tonnes P_Av_ton: Average phosphorus load (tonnes)/year N_Sum_ton: Total nitrogen load in tonnes N_Av_ton: Average nitrogen load (tonnes)/year Pr2011_ton – Pr2015_ton: Annual production (tonnes/year) P_2011_kg – P_2015_Kg: Annual phosphorus loading in kilograms (Kg P / year) N_2011_kg – N_2015_Kg: Annual nitrogen loading in kilograms (Kg N / year)

  • The amount of collected mussels with dredging. Data is presented from the Danish mussel areas within the HELCOM marine areas. The data was made available by HELCOM Contracting Parties in response to data request. The data was received from Denmark. The activity was declared as not relevant in Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Russia and Sweden. Germany indicated that data is not available. Attribute specification and units: Nr: Identification number of the mussel area Name: Name of the mussel area BluMusl05 – BluMusl15: Amount of Blue mussel (kg) collected per year ComCockl05 – ComCockl15: Amount of Common Cockle (kg) collected per year Sum_BMus: Total amount of collected Blue mussel in 2005 to 2015 (kg) AVG_BMus: A calculated average of the collected blue mussels in 2005 – 2015 (kg/year) AVG_2_BM: A calculated average of the collected blue mussels in HOLAS2 period 2011 – 2015 (kg/year) Sum_ComC: Total amount of the collected common cockles in 2005 – 2015 (kg) AVG_ComC: a calculated average of the collected common cockles in 2005 – 2015 (kg/year) AVG_2_ComC: A calculated average of the collected common cockles in HOLAS2 period 2011 – 2015 (kg/year) Area: The mussel area within the dredging occurs (km2)
