This dataset contains all heavy metal monitoring station locations where seawater samples are analysed. The information is based on data reported to HELCOM secretariat by HELCOM Contracting Parties by 2016.
-
This dataset contains all PCB in sediment monitoring station locations as reported to HELCOM secretariat by HELCOM Contracting Parties by 2016.
-
Estuaries (according to Habitats Directive Annex I) are coastal inlets that are strongly influenced by freshwater. The distribution map is based on data submission by HELCOM contracting parties. Most of the submitted data is based on modelling, GIS analysis and/or aerial photos. Data coverage, accuracy and the methods in obtaining the data vary between countries.
-
Large shallow inlets bays (according to Habitats Directive Annex I) are large, shallow indentations of the coast, sheltered from wave action and where, in contrast to estuaries, the influence of freshwater is generally limited. The distribution map is based on data submission by HELCOM contracting parties. Most of the submitted data is based on GIS analysis and modelling, but also field inventories and ground-truthing has been carried out in some areas. Data coverage, accuracy and the methods in obtaining the data vary between countries.
-
This dataset contains all PCB in biota monitoring station locations, observed matrix, biota matrix and monitored species as reported to HELCOM secretariat by HELCOM Contracting Parties by 2016.

Number of hunted cormorants (Phalacrocorax carbo) per year per county. A total sum and a calculated average (hunted individuals / year) is given for the time period 2011-2015. The data was made available by HELCOM Contracting Parties in response to data request. The data was received from Denmark, Estonia, Finland and Sweden. The activity was declared as not relevant in Germany, Lithuania and Poland. From Latvia and Russia no data was reported. Attribute specification and units: Country: Country County: County SUM: Total number of hunted individuals during 2011 – 2015 AVERAGE: A calculated five (or four) year average of hunted cormorants per year (hunted individuals/year) 2011 – 2015: Number of hunted cormorants in the year in question
-
Regional hunting numbers for Ringed seals 2011-2014.
-
This dataset contains all PAH in sediment monitoring station locationsas reported to HELCOM secretariat by HELCOM Contracting Parties by 2016.
-
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)

Submarine structures made by leaking gases (according to Habitats Directive Annex I) are also known as “bubbling reefs”. These formations support a zonation of diverse benthic communities consisting of algae and/or invertebrate specialists of hard marine substrates different to that of the surrounding habitat. The distribution map is based on data submission by HELCOM contracting parties. Only Sweden and Denmark reported occurrences of submarine structures made by leaking gases.
