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. Amendment to Serbia NUTS BN line status. * 2020-12-05 Fixed broken utf-8 encoding. * 2021-03-15 Added LAU 2011,2012,2013,2014,2015,2020 * 2021-04-26 Fixed country labels 2001, 2006 (incorrect Kosovo coordinates) IMPORTANT NOTE: Additional information, including the conditions of use and acknowledgement notice is included in the document provided with the dataset "GISCO NUTS 2021 Additional Information.pdf".

Beach sand deposits on the coast of southern Norway as a natural experimental setup to test hypotheses on soil development and luminescence dating

Beach sand deposits are widespread in the area around Sandefjord, at the western coast of the Oslofjord, southern Norway. The age of the deposits continuously increases with elevation, as the area has been subject to steady glacio-isostatic uplift throughout the Holocene. Existing local sea level curves provide age control related to elevation. Thus, the area offers excellent conditions to test hypotheses on soil formation and OSL dating. A chronosequence covering the last 10 000 years will be established. A preliminary study showed that soil formation leads to Podzols within 4300 - 6600 years. Micromorphological analyses suggest that clay illuviation takes place before and below podzolisation. It is hypothesised that clay translocation goes on contemporarily with podzolisation, but at greater soil depth, where the chemical conditions are suitable. This hypothesis will be proved by more detailed micromorphological investigation and chemical analyses. The factors controlling soil forming processes and their rates, will be determined by analyzing elemental composition, primary minerals and clay mineralogy. Preliminary OSL dating tests suggest that the beach sand deposits are OSL dateable despite the high latitude. This hypothesis will be checked by comparing OSL datings to ages derived from the 14C-based sea level curves.

Schwerpunktprogramm (SPP) 527: Bereich Infrastruktur - International Ocean Discovery Program, Teilprojekt: Globale Relevanz von Gashydrat-gefüllten Rissen für Hangstabilität

Submarine Hangrutschungen stellen ein bedeutendes Risiko für Offshore-Infrastrukturen und Küstengebiete dar, da sie zum Beispiel gefährliche Tsunamis auslösen können, wie der Storegga Slide vor der Küste Norwegens. Neben anderen Präkonditionierung für Hangrutschungen, wie steile Hangneigung oder Überdruck in den Porenräumen der Sedimente verursach im Zusammenhang mit Eiszeiten, wurde die Auflösung von Gashydraten in vielen Studien diskutiert. Die weltweite räumliche Überscheidungen von submarinen Hangrutschungen und Gashydratvorkommen hat zu der Hypothese geführt, dass die Auflösung von Gashydraten in Zeiten von Meeresspiegelsenkung oder Erderwärmung eine Hangrutschung auslösen kann. Dieser Prozess entfernt die zementierenden Gasyhdrate aus den Porenräumen und das frei werdende Gas verursacht zusätzlichen Überdruck . Obwohl Studien mithilfe von numerischen Modellierungen gezeigt haben, dass diese Hypothese realistisch ist, konnte die Forschung keine geologischen oder geophysikalischen Beweise dafür finden, dass dieser Prozess wirklich eine Hangrutschung ausgelöst hat. Außerdem zeigen verschiedene Studien, dass viele submarine Hangrutschungen retrogressiv sind und auf dem mittleren bis unteren Kontinentalhang ausgelöst werden. Diese Beobachtung lässt vermuten, dass andere Prozesse die Rutschungen auslösen. Davon abgesehen gibt es keinen Zweifel, dass Gashydrate die geotechnischen Eigenschaften von Sedimenten stark beeinflussen. Daher ist es wichtig ihren Einfluss auf die Hangstabilität weiter zu untersuchen und neue Hypothesen zu testen. Das übergeordnete wissenschaftliche Ziel dieses Antrags ist es, (1) die globale Relevanz von Gashydratgefüllten Rissen für Hangstabilität zu ergründen und (2) den Einfluss von Scherfestigkeitsvariationen auf Störungsverläufe und Stressmerkmale, wie z.B. Bohrlochausbrüche, zu verstehen. Bis jetzt war es nicht möglich gewesen, den Zusammenhang zwischen Gashydraten und Hangstabilität herzustellen, da ein umfangreicher Datensatz aus geotechnischen, geologischen und geophysikalischen Daten aus einem Gebiet mit Gashydrate verursachten Rutschungen nicht verfügbar war. Die IODP Expedition 372 hat dies geändert. Uns stehen jetzt Logging-While-Drilling Daten und Sedimentkerne von dieser Expedition zur Verfügung, genauso wie ein hochauflösender 3D Seismik Datensatz, der mit dem GEOMAR P-Cable System im Jahre 2014 aufgezeichnet wurde. Diese Daten im Zusammenhang mit einer Scherzelle für Gashydrathaltige Sedimente auf dem neusten Stand der Technik am GEOMAR, die es erlaubt die Deformation der Probe live mit einem 4D X-ray CT zu beobachten, wird es uns ermöglichen, einen Entscheidenden Schritt vorwärts in der Gashydrat- und Hangstabilitätsforschung zu machen.

Percentage of urban hospitals located in Urban Heat Island Effect stronger than 2 degrees Celsius, Jun. 2022

This metadata refers to the vector data covering 100 cities in Europe in 2021, for which Urban Heat Island modelling is available, the percentage of healthcare services (hospitals) that are located within the extent of urban heat island of 2 degrees or more than the regional average. The Urban Heat Island intensity exacerbates high temperatures in cities and thus may pose additional risks to human thermal comfort and health. Urban heat island (UHI) is an urban or metropolitan area that is significantly warmer than its surrounding rural areas due to human activities. The temperature difference is usually larger at night than during the day, and is most apparent when winds are weak. UHI is most noticeable during the summer and winter. The main cause of the UHI effect is from the modification of land surfaces. The data is included in the European Climate and Health Observatory: https://climate-adapt.eea.europa.eu/observatory. The European Climate and Health Observatory platform provides easy access to a wide range of relevant publications, tools, websites and other resources related to climate change and human health.

Trachurus trachurus (Linnaeus, 1758) Holzmakrele, Stöcker Meeresfische und -neunaugen Ungefährdet

Für die Verantwortlichkeitsanalyse in Bezug auf die Holzmakrele (Abb.: siehe Publikation für Abbildungsnummer) wurde berücksichtigt, dass die Art durch die IUCN weltweit als gefährdet (Vulnerable) eingestuft wird (IUCN 2023). Das Verbreitungsgebiet der Holzmakrele umfasst das Mittelmeer und den Ostatlantik von Norwegen bis Südafrika. Insofern liegen die deutschen Meeresgebiete mit im Hauptareal der Art. Der Bestandsanteil der Holzmakrele beträgt hier weniger als 10% ihres Weltbestandes. Insgesamt ist Deutschland in hohem Maße für die weltweite Erhaltung der Art verantwortlich. Insbesondere im Sommer ist die Holzmakrele in der deutschen AWZ der Nordsee anzutreffen. Nach Einschätzung des ICES (ICES Advice 2022) liegt die Laicherbestandsbiomasse der Art im Nordostatlantik unterhalb des Referenzwertes (MSY Btrigger; zur Erläuterung siehe Glossar in Barz & Zimmermann 2024). Die fischereiliche Sterblichkeit liegt über dem Referenzwert (FMSY; zur Erläuterung siehe Glossar in Barz & Zimmermann 2024). OSTSEE: In der westlichen Ostsee tritt die Art mehr oder weniger regelmäßig im Beifang auf und gilt als nicht gefährdet.
