This product displays the stations present in EMODnet validated dataset where lead levels have been measured in sediment. EMODnet Chemistry has included the gathering of contaminants data since the beginning of the project in 2009. For the maps for EMODnet Chemistry Phase III, it was requested to plot data per matrix (water,sediment, biota), per biological entity and per chemical substance. The series of relevant map products have been developed according to the criteria D8C1 of the MSFD Directive, specifically focusing on the requirements under the new Commission Decision 2017/848 (17th May 2017). The Commission Decision points to relevant threshold values that are specified in the WFD, as well as relating how these contaminants should be expressed (units and matrix etc.) through the related Directives i.e. Priority substances for Water. EU EQS Directive does not fix any threshold values in sediments. On the contrary Regional Sea Conventions provide some of them, and these values have been taken into account for the development of the visualization products. To produce the maps the following process has been followed: 1. Data collection through SeaDataNet standards (CDI+ODV) 2. Harvesting, harmonization, validation and P01 code decomposition of data 3. SQL query on data sets from point 2 4. Production of map with each point representing at least one record that match the criteria The harmonization of all the data has been the most challenging task considering the heterogeneity of the data sources, sampling protocols. Preliminary processing were necessary to harmonize all the data : • For water: contaminants in the dissolved phase; • For sediment: data on total sediment (regardless of size class) or size class < 2000 μm • For biota: contaminant data will focus on molluscs, on fish (only in the muscle), and on crustaceans • Exclusion of data values equal to 0

Aiken, J. (2006), a semi-analytic model for the derivation of ocean color inherent optical properties. The RRS product is defined as the spectral ratio of upwelling radiance and downwelling irradiance which can also be expressed as the ratio of normalized water leaving Radiance (nLw) and the extra-terrestrial solar irradiance (F0). The KD490 product identifies the turbidity of the water column, i.e., how visible light in the blue-green region of the spectrum penetrates within the water column. It is directly related to the presence of scattering particles in the water column. Inorganic Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM) is defined as all inorganic matter that stays on a glass fibre filter with an approximate pore size of 0.7 micrometres. Heavy metals and various organic micropollutants adsorb to SPM, the transport of which can affect the ecosystem. High concentrations of SPM cause turbidity which in turn affects the underwater light conditions, thus influencing primary production by phytoplankton and other algae in coastal waters. Products derived from OLCI are Rrs (400, 412, 443, 490, 510, 560, 620, 665, 674, 681, 709) and KD490. From the CCI multiple-sensor product are derived Rrs (410, 443, 490, 510, 560, 665nm), the Inherent Optical Properties, IOPs (ADG, APH, ATOT) and SPM. These products are remapped at nominal 300m (OLCI) and 1 Km spatial resolution using cylindrical equirectangular projection. '''Description of observation methods/instruments:''' Ocean colour technique exploits the emerging electromagnetic radiation from the sea surface in different wavelengths. The spectral variability of this signal defines the so called ocean colour which is affected by the presence of phytoplankton. By comparing reflectances at different wavelengths and calibrating the result against in-situ measurements, an estimate of in water absorption parameters can be derived.

Specification of the desirable and recommended product attributes for generating spatial layers of annual avergae internal energy for the last 20 years.

This product displays the stations where hexachlorobenzene has been measured and the values present in EMODnet Chemistry infrastructure are always below the limit of detection or quantification (LOD/LOQ), i.e quality values found in EMODnet validated dataset can be equal to 6 or Q. It is necessary to take into account that LOD/LOQ can change with time. These products aggregate data by station, producing only one final value for each station (above, below or above/below).
