Times series of water level at four stations of the Gironde Estuary (Pointe de Grave, Le Marquis, Bordeaux and Cadillac) for the the years 1953, 1971, 1982, 1994, 2005 and 2014. The dataset includes all of the time seris used in the publication: To what extent multidecadal changes in morphology and fluvial discharge impact tide in a convergent (turbid) tidal river (2018), Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans.

Portal to view and download observations of Vulnerable Marine Ecosystem (VME) indicators and habitats in the North Atlantic. A central portal for data on the distribution and abundance of Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs), (and organisms considered to be indicators of VMEs) across the North Atlantic has been set up by the Joint ICES/NAFO Working Group on Deep-water Ecology (WGDEC). Criteria used to select habitats and indicators for inclusion in the database were those described in the FAO International Guidelines for the Management of Deep-sea Fisheries in the High Seas (FAO, 2009). The database is comprised of: - 'VME habitats' that are records for which there is unequivocal evidence for a VME, e.g. ROV observations of a coral reef - 'VME indicators' which are records that suggest the presence of a VME with varying degrees of uncertainty. For VME indicators a weighting system of vulnerability and uncertainty is provided as part of the database to aid interpretation. The VME database may be used for many purposes. ICES uses it when providing scientifically-robust advice on the distribution of VMEs and recommending possible management solutions such as bottom fishing closures within North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)​ waters to protect VMEs.

Auteur(s): Dubourg Stephane , Projet de parc urbain qui s'inscrit dans une friche portuaire située à proximité du centre urbain de bordeaux dans le quartier de la Bastide. Le projet tente de renouer avec le fleuve, avec la mémoire du site en retrouvant la logique de ce territoire, ses lignes fondatrices. La mémoire devient l'élément fédérateur du projet.

This data set presents the resulting assessment grid (based on the EEA reference grid) with the classification of chemical status of the transitional, coastal and marine waters in the context of the Water Framework Directive (WFD) and the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD), providing a mapping of contamination 'problem areas' and 'non-problem areas' based on measurements of biological effects. This classification has been performed using the CHASE+ tool, with classifications of the of contaminant status of indicators of biological effects. The status is evaluated in five classes, where NPAhigh and NPAgood are recognised as ‘non-problem areas’ and PAmoderate, PApoor and PAbad are recognised as ‘problem areas’. Monitoring biological effects is restricted to a few indicators (e.g. imposex) and data coverage is currently limited. Biological effects have thus been addressed in only 134 assessment units, mostly in the Baltic Sea, the North Sea and the North-East Atlantic Ocean. This data set underpins the findings and cartographic representations published in the EEA report “Contaminants in Europe’s seas” (No 25/2018). See the mentioned report for further information.

The dataset presents the potential combined effects of land-based pressures on marine species and habitats estimated using the method for assessment of cumulative effects, for the entire suite of pressures and a selected set of marine species groups and habitats by an index (Halpern et al. 2008). The spatial assessment of combined effects of multiple pressures informs of the risks of human activities on the marine ecosystem health. The methodology builds on the spatial layers of pressures and ecosystem components and on an estimate of ecosystem sensitivity through an expert questionnaire. The raster dataset consists of a division of the Europe's seas in 10km and 100 km grid cells, which values represents the combined effects index values for pressures caused by land-based human activities. The relative values indicate areas where the pressures potentially affect the marine ecosystem. This dataset underpins the findings and cartographic representations published in the report "Marine Messages" (EEA, 2020).

These products contain global near real time (NRT) Level 2P skin Sea Surface Temperature (SST) derived from SLSTR-A on Copernicus Sentinel-3 at full-resolution swath (1 km at nadir) in GHRSST compliant NetCDF format. All SSTs from the Sea and Land Surface Temperature Radiometer (SLSTR) series of instruments are SST skin measurements. For more details please see “What is SST?” on the GHRSST web pages. At night, the skin temperature is typically a few tenths of a degree cooler than the temperature measured by in situ systems; in the day, the skin can be considerably higher if strong diurnal warming is present. The SLSTRs are dual-view self-calibrating radiometers with SST retrieved from spectral bands at nominally 3.74, 10.85 and 12 µm (referred to as S7, S8 & S9). Corrections for water vapour atmospheric absorption are performed using a triple window at night, and a split window during the day as the 3.7 µm channel is not used due to solar contamination. All pixels in the dual-view part of the swath are viewed twice, via nadir and oblique views with different atmospheric path lengths, allowing for correction for aerosol effects. Consequently, there are four possible retrieved SSTs, referred to as N2 (nadir-only 11 µm and 12 µm), N3 (nadir-only 3.7 µm, 11 µm and 12 µm), D2 (dual-view 11 µm and 12 µm) and D3 (dual-view 3.7 µm, 11 µm and 12 µm). The L2P file contains the best SST available for each pixel and flags are included to identify which retrieval is used. If the observation is in the nadir-only / single-view part of swath then "sst_algorithm_types" is N2 or N3, and if the observation is in the dual-view part of swath then "sst_algorithm_types" is D2 or D3. For D2 or D3 pixels it is possible to generate their N2 or N3 equivalent by subtracting the value in the "dual_nadir_sst_difference" field. Users are advised to use only QL = 5 dual-view SSTs for reference sensor applications and to use single-view (all quality levels) and quality level 3 and 4 dual-view data only for other qualitative analysis. Users are reminded to apply the SSES bias adjustments as SLSTR-B is harmonised to SLSTR-A through SSES. Users can consider using the "theoretical_uncertainty" for weighting observations rather than the simple SSES standard deviation values. Primary access to data is via the EUMETSAT Data Store (linked below). Other access methods can be found in the EUMETSAT Product Navigator https://navigator.eumetsat.int/product/EO:EUM:DAT:SENTINEL-3:SL_2_WST___NRT?query=slstr&results=22&s=advanced. Please also read the EUMETSAT SLSTR Product Notices (linked below) as they provide a lot of useful information. All products currently contain SLSTRA-MAR-L2P-v1.0 as the GHRSST Collection ID in the file metadata, which will be revised in a future release.
