See http://rod.eionet.europa.eu/obligations/780 for further information on the WFD2022 spatial reporting.

WISE WFD Reference Spatial Datasets reported under Water Framework Directive 2016 - PUBLIC VERSION - version 1.9, Sep. 2025

The dataset contains information on the European river basin districts, the river basin district sub-units, the surface water bodies and the groundwater bodies delineated for the 2nd River Basin Management Plans (RBMP) under the Water Framework Directive (WFD) as well as the European monitoring sites used for the assessment of the status of the above mentioned surface water bodies and groundwater bodies. The information was reported to the European Commission under the Water Framework Directive (WFD) reporting obligations. The dataset compiles the available spatial data related to the 2nd RBMPs due in 2016 (hereafter WFD2016). See http://rod.eionet.europa.eu/obligations/715 for further information on the WFD2016 reporting. See also https://rod.eionet.europa.eu/obligations/766 for information on the Environmental Quality Standards Directive - Preliminary programmes of measures and supplementary monitoring. Where available, spatial data related to the 3rd RBMPs due in 2022 (hereafter WFD2022) was used to update the WFD2016 data. See https://rod.eionet.europa.eu/obligations/780 for further information on the WFD2022 reporting. Note: * This dataset has been reported by the member states. The subsequent QC revealed some problems caused by self-intersections elements. Data in GPKG-format should be processed using QGIS.

3D-Modell Nordsee – Teilmodell Quartär - Pleistozänbasis - Mächtigkeit - 10 m Intervalle

Auf Grund unterschiedlicher Erkundungsmöglichkeiten standen für die onshore-Bereiche (von der 10 m Wassertiefenlinie bis zum Festland) und offshore-Bereiche (ab der 10 m Wassertiefenlinie) unterschiedliche Eingangsdaten für die 3D-Modellierung zur Verfügung. Für den offshore-Bereich wurden, aufgrund der begrenzten Anzahl tiefer und datierter Bohrungen, als Datengrundlage für das 3D-Modell vorrangig geophysikalische Daten verwendet. Im onshore-Bereich wurden bohrungsgestützte, vernetzte geologische Profilschnitte zur Generierung der Flächen verwendet. Die Fläche der Quartärbasis weist einige Abweichungen von der bisherigen Karte der Tiefenlage der Quartärbasis von Brückner-Röhling et al. (2005) auf. Die Abweichungen bewegen sich im Bereich zwischen +100 m und -400 m. Durch die tiefere Lage der neuen Quartärbasisfläche erhöht sich die Mächtigkeit der quartären Sedimente, je nach verwendetem Geschwindigkeitsmodell, das für die Zeit/Tiefen-Umrechnung der Seismik verwendet wurde, auf über 1.200 m im NW-Teil. Für die Basisfläche der pleistozänen Ablagerungen wurden sowohl Tiefenlagenkarten (in m unter NN) als auch Mächtigkeitskarten (in m) in 10 m und 50 m Intervallen erstellt.

Neubesiedelung von Inseln

Im Wild- und Naturschutzgebiet 'Wattenmeer Knechtsand/Eversand' - ca. 16 km vom Festland entfernt - hat sich um 1964 eine Duenenkette gebildet, die ueber die Hochwasserlinie herausragt. Die Besiedlung der Dueneninsel und der sie umgebenden Watten und Straende durch terrestrische Wirbellose wird untersucht.

Grossraeumige Modellierung des Nordfriesischen Wattenmeeres

Im Rahmen von Kuestenschutzmassnahmen im Bereich des Nordfriesischen Wattenmeeres haben viele Autoren die Nutzung von Dammbauwerken zur Erhaltung der Inselkuestelinien diskutiert. Im Bereich des Nordfriesischen Wattenmeeres existieren solche Dammbauwerke zwischen Nordstrandischmoor und dem Festland sowie zwischen der Inel Langeness und dem Festland. Das Land Schleswig-Holstein hat im letzten 'Generalplan Kuestenschutz' den Bau eines Sicherungsdamms zwischen der Insel Pellworm und dem Festland festgelegt. Durch einen solchen Dammm soll die in jeder Tideperiode einsetzende Umstroemung der Insel Pellworm verhindert werden. Langzeitmessungen zum Verlauf der Norderhever im Bereich Pellworm haben eine staendige Verbreiterung und Vertiefung der Norderhever in den letzten Jahrzehnten und einen Abtrag des Inselsockel gezeigt. Durch die Einengung des Flutraumes soll eine Stabilisierung dieser Wattrinne erreicht werden. Bedingt durch die im zu modellierenden Gebiet vorherrschende Tidedynamik fliessen waehrend einer Tideperiode netto etwa 80 Millionen Kubikmeter Wasser ueber den Schnitt des geplanten Sicherungsdammes von der Norderhever in die Aue und bilden damit verbunden die Grundlage fuer einen permanenten Materialtransport aus der Norderhever heraus. Die Auswirkungen des Dammbaus auf den Bereich des Nordfriesischen Wattenmeeres sollen mit HN-Modellen untersucht werden.

Late-Glacial and Holocene vegetational stability of southern South America

This project focuses on the long-term stability (or otherwise) of vegetation, based on a series of multi-proxy records in southern South America. We will build a network of sites suitable for high-resolution reconstructions of changes in vegetation since the Last Glacial Maximum, and use these to test a null hypothesis that changes in vegetation over the past 14,000 years are driven by internal dynamics rather than external forcing factors. The extent to which the null hypothesis can be falsified will reveal the degree to which we can expect to be able to predict how vegetation is affected by external events, including future climate change. The southern fringes of the South American landmass provide a rare opportunity to examine the development of moorland vegetation with sparse tree cover in a wet, cool temperate climate of the Southern Hemisphere. We present a record of changes in vegetation over the past 17,000 years, from a lake in extreme southern Chile (Isla Santa Inés, Magallanes region, 53°38.97S; 72°25.24W; Fontana, Bennett 2012: The Holocene), where human influence on vegetation is negligible. The western archipelago of Tierra del Fuego remained treeless for most of the Lateglacial period. Nothofagus may have survived the last glacial maximum at the eastern edge of the Magellan glaciers from where it spread southwestwards and established in the region at around 10,500 cal. yr BP. Nothofagus antarctica was likely the earlier colonizing tree in the western islands, followed shortly after by Nothofagus betuloides. At 9000 cal. yr BP moorland communities expanded at the expense of Nothofagus woodland. Simultaneously, Nothofagus species shifted to dominance of the evergreen Nothofagus betuloides and the Magellanic rain forest established in the region. Rapid and drastic vegetation changes occurred at 5200 cal. yr BP, after the Mt Burney MB2 eruption, including the expansion and establishment of Pilgerodendron uviferum and the development of mixed Nothofagus-Pilgerodendron-Drimys woodland. Scattered populations of Nothofagus, as they occur today in westernmost Tierra del Fuego may be a good analogue for Nothofagus populations during the Lateglacial in eastern sites. Climate, dispersal barriers and/or fire disturbance may have played a role controlling the postglacial spread of Nothofagus. Climate change during the Lateglacial and early Holocene was a prerequisite for the expansion of Nothofagus populations and may have controlled it at many sites in Tierra del Fuego. The delayed arrival at the site, with respect to the Holocene warming, may be due to dispersal barriers and/or fire disturbance at eastern sites, reducing the size of the source populations. The retreat of Nothofagus woodland after 9000 cal. yr BP may be due to competitive interactions with bog communities. Volcanic disturbance had a positive influence on the expansion of Pilgerodendron uviferum and facilitated the development of mixed Nothofagus-Pilgerodendron-Drimys woodland.

NECPR: Progress to targets for greenhouse gas emissions and removals (Annex I) dataset

Progress to targets for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and removals is a dataset under the National Energy and Climate Progress Reports (NECPRs), which is reported every second year (starting in 2023) by EU Member States. The dataset provides information regarding Member State's GHG and removals targets and progress in achieving them. The EEA collects and quality checks this data. The dataset links to data from GHG inventories and projections (also collected by the EEA), as well as Annual Emission Allocations (AEAs). This reporting obligation comes from the Governance Regulation 2018/1999, Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/2299 (Annex I).
