MARINE PILOT SCOPE

- MSFD requires the collection of data sets via monitoring programme (art.11)

and support assessments (art.8) and these for these to be made available to

EC in accordance with INSPIRE (art.19.3).

- To assist MSs in bringing Marine spatial data management related to the

MSFD implementation in line with INSPIRE requirements for selected data

flow.

- To understand the technical requirements of both directives and to develop

processes which accommodate their respective needs.

- Guidelines documents and example implementations as starting point to

further inspire the MSFD.

• Ef and OF for development ofenvironmental trends and assessmentof environmentl status

• SR covers indicators that presentareas with common characteristics,extension with common vocabularies(BODC)

• SD and HB cover 50% of MSFDrequirements

1. Biological diversitySpecies level

2. Non‐indigenous species introduced by human activities

3.Populations of all commercially exploited fish and shellfis

4. Elements of the marine food web

5. Human‐induced eutrophication

6. Sea‐floor integrity

Species distribution2.1. Abundance and state characterisation of non‐indigenous species

6.2. Condition of benthic community

— Distributional range (1.1.1) — spatial distribution (2.1)— Presence of particularly sensitive and/or tolerant species (6.2.1

— Distributional pattern within the latter, where appropriate (1.1.2)— Area covered by the species (for sessile/benthic species) (1.1.3)

Population size4.3. Abundance/distribution of key trophic groups/species

5.2. Direct effects of nutrient enrichment

— Population abundance and/or biomass, as appropriate (1.2.1)

— Trends in abundance, temporal occurrence (2.1)

— Abundance trends of functionally important selected groups/species (4.3.1

— Abundance of opportunistic macroalgae (5.2.3)

— Proportion of biomass or number of individuals in the macrobenthos above some specified length/size (6.2.3)

— Species shift in floristic composition such as diatom to flagellate ratio (5.2.45.3. Indirect effects of nutrient enrichment— Abundance of perennial seaweeds and seagrasses (5.3.1)

Population condition3.3. Population age and size distribution

4.2. Proportion of selected species at the top of food webs

— Population demographic characteristics (e.g. body size or age class structure, sex ratio, fecundity rates, survival/mortality rates) (1.3.1)

— Proportion of fish larger than the mean size of first sexual maturation (3.3.1)

— Large fish (by weight) (4.2.1).

— Parameters describing the characteristics (shape, slope and intercept) of the size spectrum of the benthiccommunity (6.2.4).

— Population genetic structure, where appropriate (1.3.2)

— Mean maximum length across all species found in research vessel surveys (3.3.2)— 95 % percentile of the fish length distribution observed in research vessel surveys (3.3.3).— Size at first sexual maturation, which may reflect the extent of undesirable genetic effects of exploitation (3.3.4) secondary indicator

3.2 Reproductive capacity of the stock

4.1. Productivity (production per unit biomass) of key species or trophic groups

‐ Spawning Stock Biomass (3.2.1) ‐ primary indicator

— Performance of key predator species using their production per unit biomass (productivity) (4.1.1)

‐ Biomass indices (3.2.2) secondary indicator

Inde

xes

— Multi‐metric indexes assessing benthic community condition and functionality, such as species diversity and richness, proportion of opportunistic to sensitive species (6.2.2)
