Dataset: Biochemical oxygen demand in rivers_superseded (2000-2021)
- Contact point
- European Environment Agency (sdi@eea.europa.eu)
The key indicators for oxygenation of water bodies are biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), which is the amount of oxygen needed by microorganisms for aerobic decomposition of organic matter. Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) is used to measure water quality. It refers to the amount of oxygen required by aerobic microorganisms to decompose organic substances in a water sample over a period of five days ... (read more)

- Copernicus Land Monitoring Service helpdesk (JRC-Copernicus-Land@ec.europa.eu)
Net Primary Production (NPP) is defined as the net amount of biomass, or carbon, produced by plants per unit area and time, expressed in gC/m²/day. It is equal to the difference between the Gross Primary Production (GPP), i.e. the total amount of carbon produced through photosynthesis, and the amount of energy used for plant respiration. The NPP products are provided in Near Real Time and consolid ... (read more)

Dataset: Europe Seas habitats potentially affected by anchoring, Jun. 2020
- Contact point
- European Environment Agency (sdi@eea.europa.eu)
This vector dataset represents the benthic broad habitat types in Europe seas potentially affected by anchoring. The anchoring of vessels can produce damages to the seafloor and the loss of the habitat where it happens. It takes place in shallow waters, close to ports, where vessels have to wait for a spot in the port so they can load or offload (since ports have a limited amount of dockage). The ... (read more)
