- Descriptions:
- This visualization product displays the number of Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) monitoring surveys and the associated temporal coverage per beach.<br /><br /><br />EMODnet Chemistry included the collection of marine litter in its 3rd phase. Since the beginning of 2018, data of beach litter have been gathered and processed in the EMODnet Chemistry Marine Litter Database (MLDB).<br />The harmonization of all the data has been the most challenging task considering the heterogeneity of the data sources, sampling protocols and reference lists used on a European scale.<br /><br /><br />Preliminary processing were necessary to harmonize all the data:<br /> - Exclusion of OSPAR 1000 protocol: in order to follow the approach of OSPAR that it is not including these data anymore in the monitoring;<br /> - Selection of MSFD surveys only (exclusion of other monitoring, cleaning and research operations);<br /> - Exclusion of beaches without coordinates.<br /><br /><br />More information is available in the attached documents.<br /><br /><br />Warning: the absence of data on the map doesn't necessarily mean that they don't exist, but that no information has been entered in the Marine Litter Database for this area.
