GISCO - Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics 2021 (NUTS 2021), May 2021

The 'GISCO NUTS 2021' data set represents the NUTS 2021 regulation and statistical regions by means of multipart polygon, polyline and point topology. The NUTS geographical information is completed by attribute tables and a set of cartographic help lines to better visualize multipart polygonal regions. The NUTS nomenclature is a hierarchical classification of statistical regions defined by Eurostat. The NUTS classification subdivides the EU economic territory into 3 statistical levels. The NUTS 2021 classification has been established through the Commission Delegated Regulation 2019/1755, which entered into force on 8th August 2019 and applies from 1st January 2021. A non official NUTS-like classification has been defined for the EFTA countries and the candidate countries. At present, six scale ranges (100K, 1M, 3M, 10M and 20M, 60M) are maintained in the GISCO geodatabase. The polygon and boundary classes delineate the regions, while the points provide an anchor for each region. Associated tables contain basic information such as the name of the region. The public data set will be available at 1M, 3M, 10M, 20M, 60M, while the full data set at 100K is restricted. The data set covers EU Member States, EFTA countries, EU candidate countries and the UK. Following the departure of the UK from the European Union, the UK is no longer flagged as an EU Member State but retains its place in the NUTS and statistical regions data set. This dataset (NUTS_2021) is derived from the EuroBoundary Map 2020 (EBM2020) from Eurogeographics as well as GISCO NUTS 2016 (from Türkiye). The list of NUTS2021 codes including changes with respect to NUTS2016 is available on https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/documents/345175/629341/NUTS2021.xlsx. The public metadata for NUTS 2021 released by Eurostat is available here: https://gisco-services.ec.europa.eu/distribution/v2/nuts/nuts-2021-metadata.xml. This revision (May 2021) includes minor changes in the dataset such as (see https://gisco-services.ec.europa.eu/distribution/v2/nuts/nuts-2021-release-notes.txt): * 2020-10-05 Point snapping is disabled in all datasets, number of decimals increased for 01M datasets. * 2020-11-18 Inclusion of Jan Mayen and Svalbard in to Norways Statistical Regions.

WISE WFD Reference Spatial Datasets reported under Water Framework Directive 2010 - PUBLIC VERSION - version 1.7, Jul. 2024

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 1st 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 abovementioned 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 1st RBMPs which were due in 2010 (hereafter WFD2010). See http://rod.eionet.europa.eu/obligations/521 for further information on the WFD2010 reporting. It was prepared to support the reporting of 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. The data reported in WFD2010 were updated using data reported in WFD2016, whenever the spatial objects are identical in 2010 and 2016. For WFD2010 objects, some information may be missing, if the objects no longer exist in the 2nd River Basin Management Plans, and were not reported in WFD2016. Where available, spatial data related to the 3rd RBMPs due in 2022 (hereafter WFD2022) was used to update the WFD2016 data.

Menschliches Bioklima in der Arktis im Zeitalter des Klimawandels

Der Klimawandel hat in der Arktis weitreichende direkte und indirekte Auswirkungen auf die Gesundheit der indigene und nicht-indigene Bevölkerung. Die Klima- und Wetterbedingungen der nördlichen Breiten und die jüngsten dramatischen Klimaveränderungen führen zu Temperaturextremen, die sich auf die soziale und wirtschaftliche Struktur der städtischen und ländlichen Gebiete auswirken werden. Eine eingehende Analyse dieser Veränderungen sollte sich sowohl mit den spezifischen natürlichen und sozialen Merkmalen befassen als auch mit den Anliegen der indigenen Bevölkerung. Das menschliche Wohlbefinden im Kontext von Klima- und Wetterextremen lässt sich mit dem Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) erfassen. Während die Lufttemperatur allein ein guter Indikator für die aktuellen und zukünftigen Wetter- und Klimabedingungen ist, kann das Wohlbefinden durch starke Winde und hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit beeinflusst werden. Gerade in Küstengebieten verschärfen sich die klimatischen Situationen im Winter durch das Zusammenspiel von Wind und Kälte. Das Projekt zielt darauf ab, die aktuellen bioklimatischen Bedingungen zu identifizieren und mittels dem UTCI zu bewerten. Der Schwerpunkt liegt auf der thermischen Belastung für den menschlichen Körper und der Bewertung der sozialen Anfälligkeit, die sich aus den rezenten extremen klimatischen Schwankungen in der Arktis ergeben. Es werden auch die positiven Folgen der globalen Klimaerwärmung und der gesellschaftliche Nutzen aus diesen Veränderungen der nördlichen Breitengrade diskutiert. Zur Bestimmung der sozialen Verwundbarkeit und der sozialen Sensibilität und Anpassungsfähigkeit in den nördlichen Breiten berechnen wir den Social Vulnerability Index (SVI). Die SVI konkretisiert die sozialen Probleme, die sich aus dem fortschreitenden Klimawandel ergeben und liefert Erkenntnisse für die Entwicklung von Anpassungsstrategien in dieser Region. Um sich in die regionalen Details des SVI zu vertiefen, wird das sozioökonomische Umfeld der Gemeinden im Norden Norwegens als Fallstudie betrachtet. Die Ergebnisse des Projekts können als nützliches Instrument zur Minimierung von Bevölkerungsverlusten und zur Gewährleistung der sozialen Sicherheit in der Arktis dienen und politischen Entscheidungsträgern eine solide wissenschaftliche Grundlage für die Prävention und Eindämmung von Klimakatastrophen bieten, was für die Menschen in den nördlichen Gebieten äußerst wichtig ist in Zeiten des Klimawandels.

Urban Heat Island (UHI) intensity modelling, Jan. 2020

The raster dataset of urban heat island modelling shows the fine-scale (100m pixel size) temperature differences (in degrees Celsius °C) across 100 European cities, depending on the land use, soil sealing, anthropogenic heat flux, vegetation index and climatic variables such as wind speed and incoming solar radiation. In the framework of the Copernicus European Health contract for the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S), VITO provided 100m resolution hourly temperature data (2008-2017) for 100 European cities, based on simulations with the urban climate model UrbClim (De Ridder et al., 2015). As the cities vary in size, so do the model domains. They have been defined with the intention to have a more or less constant ratio of urban vs. non-urban pixels (as defined in the CORINE land use map), with a maximum of 400 by 400 pixels (due to computational restraints). From this data set, the average urban heat island intensity is mapped for the summer season (JJA), which is the standard way of working in the scientific literature (e.g. Dosio, 2016). The UHI is calculated by subtracting the rural (non-water) spatial P10 temperature value from the average temperature map. The 100 European cities for the urban simulations were selected based on user requirements within the health community.
