This dataset describes fishing intensity for DRB MOL mobile bottom contacting gear in 2011 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. Dataset attribute information: c-square: Unique reference of the c-square polygon Year: Year of fishing activity mid_lat: latitude coordinate of the centroid of c-square inWGS84 decimal degrees mid_lon: longitude coordinate of the centroid of c-square inWGS84 decimal degrees SurfaceSAR: Surface area ratio (Swept area, < 2 cm penetration depth of the gear components) Subsurface: Subsurface area ratio (Swept area, subsurface =>2 cm penetration depth of the gear components) totweight: Total Weight (kg) totvalue: Total value (Euros) Kw Fishing Hours: (Kw*h) Fishing hours: (h) Reported: Yes=Reported data. No= No reported data (area that does not contain effort/intensity value due to lack of reported data). Please note that this dataset was updated (v2) in January 2019, see further details below in the lineage section.

This core indicator evaluates the status of the Baltic Sea based on the number- and the size of illegal oil spills detected in annual aerial surveillance. Quantitative thresholds are used to evaluate if core indicators status is "Achieve", "Fail" or "Not assessed". Good status is achieved when the amount of oil spills are below the threshold value. This dataset displays the result of the indicator in HELCOM Assessment Scale 2 (Division of the Baltic Sea into 17 sub-basins). Attribute information: "HELCOM_ID" = Code of the HELCOM scale 2 assessment unit "level_2" = name of he HELCOM scale 2 assessment unit (subbasin) "Area (km2)" = Area of the HELCOM scale 2 assessment unit "AULEVEL" = Assessment unit level used for the indicator "STATUS" = Status of the indicator (“Target achieved”, “Target exceeded” or “Not assessed”)

Observations of Labrus bergylta 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. Labrus bergylta has been placed to the Red List category of Least Concern (LC) species. The map shows the subbasins in the HELCOM area where the species is known to occur regularly and to reproduce (HELCOM 2012).

The pressure oil slicks and spills is combination of following datasets: Illegal oil discharges (2016-2021): Value of spills (VOLUME) under OR EQUAL 1km2 was directly given to grid cell. If the spill area > 1km2, a buffer with the area was added (circular buffer based on estimated radius) and the estimated volume of the spill was divided by the spill area to get the estimated amount of oil / km2. This value was given to the entire spill area. If oil spill volume was missing, mean of values was given. If area of spill was missing (103/560), mean of values was given. If the spill was < or = 1km2, the value of spill volume was given directly to 1km2 grid cell. If the spill area was > 1km2, the estimated volume of the spill was divided by the spill area to get the estimated amount of oil / km2. This value was given to the entire spill area. Layer was log transformed and normalized. Polluting ship accidents (2016-2020): Point, spill volume (m3) converted directly to 1 x 1 km grid A mean of reported volumes was given to accidents with missing oil volume. Spill volume in m3 was given directly to 1km2 grid cell. Layer was log transformed and normalized. Layers were separately normalised. After that, layers were summed and again normalised to produce the final pressure value between 0 and 1.
