This indicator measures marine protected area (MPA) coverage at the EU and Member State levels in this coverage over time. It considers MPAs reported as both Natura 2000 sites and nationally designated protected areas.
An indicator comparing water use versus renewable freshwater resources as percentage in a given area and time resolution e.g. annual water scarcity at country level.
This indicator measures marine protected area (MPA) coverage at the EU and Member State levels and trends in this coverage over time. It considers MPAs reported as both Natura 2000 sites and nationally designated protected areas.
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’.
