  • 1) Demographic traits These data are published data of age-specific mortality rates, age-specific lengths or weights, length and age at maturity, fecundity-length relationships, and egg size for 84 populations from 49 species of primarily commercial teleost fishes. The populations included are those for which all the life history traits under study have been estimated over a period shorter than 10 years. Traits were estimated from within the ten year window or averaged across it when data were available. Only studies in which reference population, sample size, techniques used for ageing fish and counting eggs, and models used for estimating mortality were reported are included. When only a size or age range was available, the midpoint between the extreme values was used. Raw data were converted into seven demographic traits: - Time-to-5%-survival (T.05): the time elapsed from sexual maturity until 95% of a cohort is dead. T.05 fwas estimated from an exponential mortality model, based on total mortality coefficients estimated by Virtual Population Analysis (age-structured model) in most cases or cohort analysis or catch curves. - Length-at-5%-survival (L.05). In fishes, adult size is difficult to measure because of their indeterminate growth. Adult size reported here is length at time-to-5%-survival. - Age at sexual maturity (Tm): median age at maturity was estimated directly from the data or by fitting a logistic curve to age-specific proportion mature data. When only an age range was available, the midpoint between minimum and maximum is reported. - Length at sexual maturity (Lm): median length at maturity was estimated as age at maturity. - Slope of the fecundity-length relationship (Fb): fish fecundity, defined as the number of eggs present in the ovaries immediately before spawning, is known to increase intraspecifically with the size of females. This increase is usually described by a power-law F = aLb. The exponent of this relationship, b (slope of the log-log fecundity-length regression), accounts for the increase in fecundity with size. - Fecundity at maturity (Fm): fecundity in the year of maturity was estimated from length at maturity, the fecundity-length relationship and the number of spawning bouts per year for batch spawners. - Egg volume (Egg): When information on egg size was unavailable in specific papers, values were borrowed from other studies, using the following criteria in the descending order: from the same period, the same population, the same species. In five species of Perciformes no estimate was available for any population, thus egg volume was estimated from other species of the same family. 2) Fishing pressure Three types of environments with low, moderate and high fishing pressure were defined. - To scale the pressure exerted by fishing to the natural population turn-over, it was expressed as the ratio of fishing mortality to natural mortality rates (F/M). Data were gathered from the literature together with demographic traits. Authors use the following methods to estimate natural mortality rates: intercept of a regression of total mortality on fishing effort, linear relationship known between estimates of natural mortality, growth parameters and the temperature, or multispecies models. Fishing mortality rates were estimated from Virtual Population Analysis or cohort analysis, or as the difference between total and natural mortality. Three levels of fishing pressure were defined: low fishing pressure (fishing mortality lower than natural mortality, F/M < 1), intermediate (1 <= F/M < 2) and high (F/M >= 2).

  • The Ocean Heat Content ("OHC") is estimated from the measurement of the thermal expansion of the ocean based on differences between the total sea-level content derived from altimetry measurements and the mass content derived from gravimetry data, noted “altimetry-gravimetry”. The Earth Energy Imbalance ("EEI") indicator is derived from the temporal variations of the ocean heat content, i.e. by calculating its derivative (called the ocean heat uptake). The product is delivered in two distinct files. The main one contains the essential variables like Global Ocean Heat Content, Earth Energy Imbalance time series and their relative variance-covariance matrices. The second file contains more variables than the first product like time series of Ocean Mass, Sea Level et Steric Sea Level change grids. It also includes additional variables that were not used for the Global ocean heat content calculation, such as the Global mean of ocean mass, Global mean sea level and Global mean steric sea level time series, but which may nevertheless be of interest to users. Users will therefore be able to find, among other things : - the regional map of the Ocean Heat Content trends (see image associated with this metadata sheet), - global ocean heat content change time series (representative of the globe within the extent of data availability), - earth energy imbalance time series (from global OHC filtered-out from signals lower than 3 years), - the uncertainties associated with these two datasets.

  • Particularly suited to the purpose of measuring the sensitivity of benthic communities to trawling, a trawl disturbance indicator (de Juan and Demestre, 2012, de Juan et al. 2009) was proposed based on benthic species life history traits to evaluate the sensibility of mega- and epifaunal community to fishing pressure known to have a physical impact on the seafloor (such as dredging and bottom trawling). The selected biological traits were chosen as they determine vulnerability to trawling: mobility, fragility, position on substrata, average size and feeding mode that can easily be related to the fragility, recoverability and vulnerability ecological concepts. Life history traits of species have been defined from the BIOTIC database (MARLIN, 2014) and from information given by Le Pape et al. (2007), Brindamour et al. (2009) and Garcia (2010). For missing life history traits, additional information from literature has been considered. The five categories retained are life history functional traits that were selected based on the knowledge of the response of benthic taxa to trawling disturbance (de Juan and Demestre, 2012). They reflect respectively the possibility to avoid direct gear impact, to benefit from trawling for feeding, to escape gear, to get caught by the net and to resist trawling/dredging action, each of these characteristics being either advantageous or sensitive to trawling. Then, to allow quantitative analysis, a score was assigned to each category: from low vulnerability (0) to high vulnerability (3). The five categories scores were then summed for each taxon (the highly vulnerable taxon could reach the maximum score is 15) and this value may be considered as a species index of sensitivity to trawling disturbance. The scores of 773 taxa commonly found in bottom trawl by-catch in the southern North Sea, English Channel and north-western Mediterranean were described.

  • The Mean Dynamic Topography (MDT) is the temporal mean of the Sea Surface Height above the Geoid over a reference period (here 1993-2012). The Hybrid Mean Dynamic Topography contains the MDT-CNES-CLS18 for the global coverage and the MDT CMEMS 2020 for the Black Sea (MDT-CMEMS2020-BLK) and the Mediterranean Sea (MDT-CMEMS2020-MED).

  • These datasets contain 4D (x, y, z, t) weekly temperature and marine heatwaves (MHW) categories estimated from the surface up to 300-m depth, at a 0.25°x0.25° horizontal grid resolution and for 4 areas of interest that are: • Area 1 (around the Madeira Islands): 30°N-35°N, 15°W-20°W • Area 2 (Tropical Pacific Ocean): 30°S-30°N, 120°E-130°W • Area 3 (Mediterranean Sea): 40°N-45°N, 15°W-20°W • Area 4 (Global): 82.875°S-89.875°N, 0.125°E-359.875°E The weekly MHW are centered on the date of the file (±3days). For the temperature reconstruction, 2 approaches have been used: - for the regional areas, the temperature has been computed with a 2 steps method: a first estimate of the vertical temperature profiles by using a machine learning approach (Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP)) and then, a combination of this field with in situ temperature profiles observations through an optimal interpolation algorithm. The Copernicus Marine Service ARMOR3D dataset was used as the targeted temperature field for the MLP. The input data used are: • First step: ◦ SST data are from daily OSTIA analyses [from Copernicus Marine Service: SST_GLO_SST_L4_REP_OBSERVATIONS_010_011 product] interpolated over the 0.25°x0.25° targeted grid resolution; ◦ SLA data are from the Copernicus Marine Service product SEALEVEL_GLO_PHY_L4_REP_OBSERVATIONS_008_047/dataset-duacs-rep-global-merged-allsat-phy-l4 • Second step: ◦ The in situ data are from the Copernicus Marine Service In Situ TAC and contains several observations type: CTD, Argo floats, drifting buoys, moorings, marine mammals). - For the global area, the temperature comes from the Copernicus Marine Service product ARMOR3D (MULTIOBS_GLO_PHY_TSUV_3D_MYNRT_015_012 (https://doi.org/10.48670/moi-00052). The MHW categories are derived from the Hobday’s method [Hobday et al.,2018] for the 4 areas. Each MHW event is classified among four categories (moderate to extreme), identified in terms of multiples of the local difference between the 90th percentile and climatological values, and defined as moderate (1-2×, Category I), strong (2-3×, Category II), severe (3-4×, Category III), and extreme (>4×, Category IV). When the category is zero, this means that there is no MHW. The period 1993-2021 is used as a baseline for defining the climatology to be as close as possible to the 30-year period suggested by Hobday. This choice is motivated by the need of altimetry data to constrain the vertical temperature reconstruction, which is required for most ocean reanalyses as well, therefore the baseline period slightly differs from the one used for the 2D atlas.
