Bathing Water Directive - Status of bathing water

The EU Bathing Waters Directive requires Member States to identify popular bathing places in fresh and coastal waters and monitor them for indicators of microbiological pollution (and other substances) throughout the bathing season which runs from May to September

[EU SDG 06_60] Water exploitation index, plus (WEI+)

The WEI+ provides a measure of total water consumption as a percentage of the renewable freshwater resources available for a given territory and period. The WEI+ is an advanced geo-referenced version of the WEI. It quantifies how much water is abstracted monthly or seasonally and how much water is returned before or after use to the environment via river basins (e.g. leakages, discharges by economic sectors). The difference between water abstractions and water returns is regarded as ‘water consumption’.

Geographic Information System of the European Commission (GISCO)

This metadata refers to the whole content of GISCO reference database, which contains both public datasets (also available for the general public through http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/gisco/geodata) and datasets to be used only internally by the EEA (typically, but not only, GISCO datasets at 1:100k).

Climate related hazards

This series refers to datasets related to the potential occurrence of a climate-induced physical event or trend that may cause loss of life, injury, or other health impacts, as well as damage and loss to property, infrastructure, livelihoods, service provision, ecosystems and environmental resources. It includes datasets on flooding, drought, urban heat island and heatwaves, extreme temperatures and precipitations, fire danger as well as climate suitability for vectors of infectious diseases. The datasets are part of the European Climate Adaptation Platform (Climate-ADAPT) accessible here: https://climate-adapt.eea.europa.eu/

Schwerpunktprogramm (SPP) 1006: Bereich Infrastruktur - Internationales Kontinentales Bohrprogramm, Sub project: Bündel-Antrag Ohrid-See: Evolutionary, geological, and environmental history of Lake Ohrid (EGEL)

Lake Ohrid is a large (360 km2) and deep (289 m) lake of tectonic origin and is shared between the Republics of Macedonia and Albania. Biological and biogeographical studies of the lake revealed an outstanding degree of endemism and suggest a Pliocene origin of Lake Ohrid, making the lake the oldest one in Europe. The high age and the high degree of endemism make Lake Ohrid a first class site to investigate the link between geological and biological evolution in ancient lakes. Given its importance as refugium and spreading centre, the lake was declared a UNESCO world heritage site in 1979, and included as a target site of the International Continental Scientific Drilling Program (ICDP) already in 1993. The political situation in the Balkan in the mid 1990ies, however, hampered further establishment of Lake Ohrid as potential ICDP site. This proposal bundle seeks funds for the detection of the timing of major evolutionary events, the investigation of the origin, the sedimentological inventory, neotectonic movements, and the paleoecology and paleolimnology of Lake Ohrid in order to develop a full ICDP proposal for deep drilling. Within the scope of this cover proposal funds for the coordination of the single proposals, for scientific exchange between the single bundle proponents, and for the data management are applied for.

Geographic Information System of the European Commission (GISCO) - full database, May 2021

GISCO (Geographic Information System of the COmmission) is responsible for meeting the European Commission's geographical information needs at three levels: the European Union, its member countries, and its regions. In addition to creating statistical and other thematic maps, GISCO manages a database of geographical information, and provides related services to the Commission. Its database contains core geographical data covering the whole of Europe, such as administrative boundaries, and thematic geospatial information, such as population grid data. Some data are available for download by the general public and may be used for non-commercial purposes. For further details and information about any forthcoming new or updated datasets, see http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/gisco/geodata. This metadata refers to the whole content of GISCO reference database extracted in May 2021, which contains both public datasets (also available for the general public through http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/gisco/geodata) and datasets to be used only internally by the EEA (typically, but not only, GISCO datasets at 1:100k). The database is provided in as a single GDB and also as individual GPKG file per feature, with datasets at scales from 1:60M to 1:100K, with reference years spanning until 2021 (e.g. NUTS 2021). Additional information and metadata is provided with the dataset in the folder docs. The database manual, a file with the content of the database, a glossary, and a document with the naming conventions are included in this folder. The document GISCO-ConditionsOfUse.pdf provided with the dataset gives information on the copyrighted data sources, the mandatory acknowledgement clauses and re-dissemination rights. The license conditions for EuroGeographic datasets in GISCO are provided in a standalone document "LicenseConditions_EuroGeographics.pdf". The main updates with respect to the previous version of the full database in the SDI (from June 2020) are the addition of the following datasets: - Coastline boundaries, 2020 (COAS_2020) (N.B.: An update is expected soon) - Degree of Urbanisation, 2020 (DGURBA_2020) - Exclusive Economic Zones, 2020 (EEZ_2020) - FAO Fishing Areas, 2020 (FAO_FISH_2020) - Healthcare services (HEALTH) - LAU Historical Census data (LAU_CENS_1961-2011) - Local Administrative Units, 2017 (LAU_2017), 2019 (LAU_2019) and 2020 (LAU_2020) - LUCAS, 2018 (LUCAS_2018) - Metropolitan Regions, 2021 (MREG_2021) - Postal Codes, 2020 (PCODE_2020) (N.B.: DE is to be updated soon) When available, the model specifications of these new layers are also provided with the database (under the folder docs). NOTE: This metadata file is only for internal EEA purposes and in no case replaces the official metadata provided by Eurostat. For specific GISCO datasets included in this version there are individual EEA metadata files in the SDI: NUTS_2021, MREG_2021 and CNTR_2020. For public products, continuous updates are being published in the public website of GISCO: https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/gisco/geodata. The original metadata files from Eurostat for the different GISCO datasets are available via ECAS login through the Eurostat metadata portal on https://webgate.ec.europa.eu/inspire-sdi/srv/eng/catalog.search#/home For more information about the full database or any of its datasets, please contact the SDI Team (sdi@eea.europa.eu).

Heat-related mortality per European country (2000-2020), Apr 2023

This metadata refer to the dataset presenting the modelled annual heat-related mortality incidence (annual deaths per million inhabitants) in Europe between 2000 and 2020 Heat-related deaths are estimated to have increased in 931 (94%) of the 990 regions monitored from 2000 to 2020, with an overall mean increase of 15·1 (95% CI –1·51 to 31·6) annual deaths per million inhabitants per decade for the general population, and 60·4 (–17·8 to 138·6) extra deaths per million inhabitants per decade for people 65 years and older.
