Additional information

Based on the EIONET WISE SoE TCM data reported to EEA. In 2010, data suitable for the indicator were only reported from very few stations in the Mediterranean and from no stations in the Black Sea.

The used regional and subregional seas of Europe are in line with the geographical regions and sub-regions specified in the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD). Other European Seas (Icelandic Sea, The Norwegian Sea, the Barents Sea and the White Sea) are not covered herein due to lack of data.
