Springtime Chl-a concentration is here used as a proxy for productive surface waters. In the Baltic Sea Spatial Pressure and Impact Index (SPIA), areas with high springtime phytoplankton production will be given higher importance, as they are considered important areas for the Baltic Sea food web. In the current map, mean of springtime maximum weekly values (weeks 12-22 for the HOLAS3 assessment period 2016-2021). Satellite Chl-a concentration of the surface waters has been used and converted to index by Finnish Environment institute with resolution of 1 km x 1 km grid cells.

This dataset represents the underlying biota data on core indicator Hexabromocyclododecane (HBCDD). The core indicator evaluates the status of the marine environment based on concentrations of Hexabromocyclododecane (HBCDD) in Baltic Sea fish. Quantitative threshold values are used to evaluate if core indicators status is Achieve, Fail or Not assessed. The threshold value is an environmental quality standard (EQS), derived at EU level as a substance included on the priority list under Directive 2008/105/EC. This dataset displays the result of the indicator in HELCOM Assessment Scale 4 (Division of the Baltic Sea into 17 sub-basins and further division into coastal and off-shore areas and division of the coastal areas by WFD water types or water bodies).

This indicator evaluates the eutrophication status of the Baltic Sea area based on dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP) concentration. The measured average DIP is based on in-situ PO4 measurements from oceanographic monitoring data for winter period (December-February) 2011-2016 (umol/l), surface water (0-10 m). More detailed description on methodology can be found at http://www.helcom.fi/baltic-sea-trends/indicators/Dissolved-inorganic-phosphorus-(DIP) and http://www.helcom.fi/Documents/Eutrophication%20assessment%20manual.pdf 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). The open sea areas have been assessed based on HELCOM Monitoring data and results for coastal areas are based on national WFD results.

This dataset represents the underlying biota data on core indicator Perfluorooctane sulphonate (PFOS). The core indicator evaluates the status of the marine environment based on concentrations of perfluorooctane sulphonate (PFOS) in Baltic Sea fish and in a few assessment units using the secondary matrix seawater. Quantitative thresholds are used to evaluate if core indicators status is Achieve, Fail or Not assessed. Good status is achieved when the concentrations of PFOS are below the threshold value.
