This product contains observations and gridded files from two up-to-date carbon and biogeochemistry community data products: Surface Ocean Carbon ATlas SOCATv2021 and GLobal Ocean Data Analysis Project GLODAPv2.2021. The SOCATv2021-OBS dataset contains >25 million observations of fugacity of CO2 of the surface global ocean from 1957 to early 2021. The quality control procedures are described in Bakker et al. (2016). These observations form the basis of the gridded products included in SOCATv2020-GRIDDED: monthly, yearly and decadal averages of fCO2 over a 1x1 degree grid over the global ocean, and a 0.25x0.25 degree, monthly average for the coastal ocean. GLODAPv2.2021-OBS contains >1 million observations from individual seawater samples of temperature, salinity, oxygen, nutrients, dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity and pH from 1972 to 2019. These data were subjected to an extensive quality control and bias correction described in Olsen et al. (2020). GLODAPv2-GRIDDED contains global climatologies for temperature, salinity, oxygen, nitrate, phosphate, silicate, dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity and pH over a 1x1 degree horizontal grid and 33 standard depths using the observations from the previous iteration of GLODAP, GLODAPv2. SOCAT and GLODAP are based on community, largely volunteer efforts, and the data providers will appreciate that those who use the data cite the corresponding articles (see References below) in order to support future sustainability of the data products.

ERA‐40 is a re‐analysis of meteorological observations from September 1957 to August 2002 produced by the European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF)

This product displays for Lead, positions with percentages of all available data values per group of animals that are present in EMODnet regional contaminants aggregated datasets, v2024. The product displays positions for all available years.

This visualization product displays the total abundance of marine macro-litter (> 2.5cm) per beach per year from non-MSFD monitoring surveys, research & cleaning operations. EMODnet Chemistry included the collection of marine litter in its 3rd phase. Since the beginning of 2018, data of beach litter have been gathered and processed in the EMODnet Chemistry Marine Litter Database (MLDB). The harmonization of all the data has been the most challenging task considering the heterogeneity of the data sources, sampling protocols and reference lists used on a European scale. Preliminary processing were necessary to harmonize all the data: - Exclusion of OSPAR 1000 protocol: in order to follow the approach of OSPAR that it is not including these data anymore in the monitoring; - Selection of surveys from non-MSFD monitoring, cleaning and research operations; - Exclusion of beaches without coordinates; - Some categories & some litter types like organic litter, small fragments (paraffin and wax; items > 2.5cm) and pollutants have been removed. The list of selected items is attached to this metadata. This list was created using EU Marine Beach Litter Baselines and EU Threshold Value for Macro Litter on Coastlines from JRC (these two documents are attached to this metadata). - Exclusion of surveys without associated length; - Normalization of survey lengths to 100m & 1 survey / year: in some case, the survey length was not 100m, so in order to be able to compare the abundance of litter from different beaches a normalization is applied using this formula: Number of items (normalized by 100 m) = Number of litter per items x (100 / survey length) Then, this normalized number of items is summed to obtain the total normalized number of litter for each survey. Finally, the median abundance for each beach and year is calculated from these normalized abundances per survey. Percentiles 50, 75, 95 & 99 have been calculated taking into account other sources data for all years. More information is available in the attached documents. Warning: the absence of data on the map doesn't necessarily mean that they don't exist, but that no information has been entered in the Marine Litter Database for this area.

In recent years, large datasets of in situ marine carbonate system parameters (partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2), total alkalinity, dissolved inorganic carbon and pH) have been collated. These carbonate system datasets have highly variable data density in both space and time, especially in the case of pCO2, which is routinely measured at high frequency using underway measuring systems. This variation in data density can create biases when the data are used, for example for algorithm assessment, favouring datasets or regions with high data density. A common way to overcome data density issues is to bin the data into cells of equal latitude and longitude extent. This leads to bins with spatial areas that are latitude and projection dependent (eg become smaller and more elongated as the poles are approached). Additionally, as bin boundaries are defined without reference to the spatial distribution of the data or to geographical features, data clusters may be divided sub-optimally (eg a bin covering a region with a strong gradient). To overcome these problems and to provide a tool for matching in situ data with satellite, model and climatological data, which often have very different spatiotemporal scales both from the in situ data and from each other, a methodology has been created to group in situ data into ‘regions of interest’, spatiotemporal cylinders consisting of circles on the Earth’s surface extending over a period of time. These regions of interest are optimally adjusted to contain as many in situ measurements as possible. All in situ measurements of the same parameter contained in a region of interest are collated, including estimated uncertainties and regional summary statistics. The same grouping is done for each of the other datasets, producing a dataset of matchups. About 35 million in situ datapoints were then matched with data from five satellite sources and five model and re-analysis datasets to produce a global matchup dataset of carbonate system data, consisting of 287,000 regions of interest spanning 54 years from 1957 to 2023. Each region of interest is 50 km in diameter and 5 days in duration, improving the spatial and temporal resolution of the previous version (v3.4). The list of sources added in this dataset includes: - sea surface temperature and sea ice concentration from Copernicus Climate Service Multi-satellite L4 (http://dx.doi.org/10.5285/62c0f97b1eac4e0197a674870afe1ee6) - sea surface salinity from the Copernicus Marine service Multi Observation Global Ocean Sea Surface Salinity and Sea Surface Density (https://doi.org/10.48670/moi-00051) - Surface ocean sea-air CO2 fluxes and total alkalinity from ETH Zurich OceanSODA-ETHZ-v2 gridded dataset (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.11206366) - salinity and mixed layer depth from SODA v3.4.2 reanalysis (https://doi.org/10.1175/JCLI-D-18-0149.1) - chlorophyll-A from ESA Ocean Colour CCI v6 (doi:10.3390/s19194285) - wind at 10 m and mean sea level pressure from ERA5 reanalysis - nitrate, silicate, phosphate, oxygen, temperature and salinity from World Ocean Atlas 2018 - sea level anomaly from Global Ocean Gridded L4 Sea Surface Heights And Derived Variables Multi-Year dataset by Copernicus Marine Service Information (https://doi.org/10.48670/moi-00148) - sea surface salinity from ESA Salinity CCI L4 v3.2.1 (https://dx.doi.org/10.5285/5920a2c77e3c45339477acd31ce62c3c) - sea surface salinity from JPL SMAP Level 3 CAP Sea Surface Salinity (https://doi.org/10.5067/SMP40-3SPCS) - temperature and salinity from Coriolis Observation Re-Analysis CORA5.2 by Copernicus Marine Service (https://doi.org/10.17882/46219) - subskin sea surface temperature from NOAA OISST SST (http://doi.org/10.5067/GHAAO-4BC01) - sea surface salinity from the Arctic salinity dataset (https://doi.org/10.20350/digitalCSIC/9065) the Barcelona Expert Center (http://bec.icm.csic.es/) - pH and spCO2 from Copernicus Marine Service Surface Ocean Carbon Dataset (https://doi.org/10.48670/moi-00047) An example application, the reparameterisation of a global total alkalinity algorithm, is shown. This matchup dataset can be updated as and when in situ and other datasets are updated, and similar datasets at finer spatiotemporal scale can be constructed, for example to enable regional studies. This dataset was funded by ESA OceanHealth / Ocean Acidification project which aims at developing the use of satellite Earth Observation for studying and monitoring marine carbonate chemistry.

to deliver maps showing the extent of the trawling fishing grounds for identifying the areas which are most disturbed by bottom trawling and the changes in level of disturbance over the past ten years and identifying the gaps of fishing vessels’ tracking systems in the Mediterranean Sea

Seawater samples (500 mL) were taken during the PIRATA FR-32 cruise to measure surface inorganic carbon and alkalinity. The analyses were realised by potentiometric titration using a closed-cell at the SNAPO-CO2, LOCEAN in Paris.
