Arctic Species Trend Index (ASTI) : Freshwater

The Circumpolar Biodiversity Monitoring Program, a cornerstone programme of the Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna (CAFF), Arctic Council working Group is an international network of scientists, government agencies, Indigenous organizations and conservation groups working together to harmonize and integrate efforts to monitor the Arctic's living resources.CBMP experts are developing four coordinated and integrated Arctic Biodiversity Monitoring Plans to help guide circumpolar monitoring efforts. Results will be channeled into effective conservation, mitigation and adaptation policies supporting the Arctic. These plans represent the Arctic's major ecosystems(Marine, Freshwater, Coastal, Terrestrial).
It is important that monitoring programs develop the most effective reporting strategies if they are to inform decision making. To facilitate effective and consistent reporting, the CBMP has chosen a suite of indices and indicators that provide a comprehensive picture of the state of Arctic biodiversity – from species to habitats to ecosystem processes to ecological services. These indices and indicators are developed in a hierarchical manner, allowing users to drill down into the data from the higher-order indices to more detailed indicators. These are being developed through an expert consultation process. The Arctic Species Trend Index (ASTI) is part of this suite of indicators and indices developed by CAFFs CBMP. It tracks trends in over 300 Arctic vertebrate species and comprises the Arctic component of the Living Planet Index. It is important to identify how wildlife and ecosystems are changing in order to develop effective conservation and adaptation strategies in the Arctic, an environment undergoing dramatic changes. The ASTI describes overall trends across species, taxonomy, ecosystems, regions and other categories.
Historical Kenyan-Belgian research datasets (1873-1999)

Belgium and Kenya have a long tradition of collaboration in marine sciences. In 2012 the Kenya Marine and Fisheries Institute (KMFRI) and the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ) renewed this collaboration with a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). A first step already started under the umbrella of LifeWatch with the recovery of biotic datasets resulting from joint Belgian-Kenyan marine research activities. This data collection combines all biotic data recovered from theses and reports resulting in the Eastern African region conducted between 1873 and 1999.

Populus J. et al 2017. EUSeaMap, a European broad-scale seabed habitat map. Ifremer. http://doi.org/10.13155/49975
DE003001

The map was produced by the Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency (BSH) and depicts the sediment conditions within the German Exclusive Economic zone and coastal areas in a scale of 1:250.000 (Laurer et al. 2014). Grain size fractions were classified according to the sediment calssification system of Figge (1981) and grouped to polygons data layers covering the entire area of interest (for detailed information please refer to Laurer et al. 2014). The sediment classes according to Figge (1981) formed the basis to differentiate the three EUNIS level 3 habitat types sublittoral sand, mud and coarse sediments.
Map of offshore benthic communities of the Irish Sea

NMGW was established by Royal Charter in 1907 as the National Museum of Wales. An independent registered charity, NMGW receives its core funding through grant-in-aid from the Welsh Assembly Government as an Assembly Sponsored Public Body. Its core activities involve developing, caring for, studying and sustaining access to its collections for the benefit of society in perpetuity. The work of the Marine Biodiversity Section is wholly concerned with benthic invertebrates. At the Museum, we look after the specimen collections (curation), carry out taxonomic research by describing new species, and investigate the distribution and richness of the invertebrate species in the waters around our coasts.
North & West of Anglesey (HabMap/MESH) cruise

The JNCC is the UK Government's wildlife adviser, undertaking national and international conservation work on behalf of the three country nature conservation agencies Natural England, Scottish Natural Heritage and the Countryside Council for Wales. In addition to leading the MESH project, JNCC's marine habitat mapping work involves the production and subsequent revision of the National marine habitat classification for Britain and Ireland which was also fully incorporated into the EUNIS classification system. Other work involves the provision of advice to the UK conservation agencies, government bodies and others on various mapping techniques and technologies. JNCC contributes to International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) work on marine habitat mapping and has produced a Marine Monitoring Handbook that holds procedural guidelines to many of these techniques and technologies.
366_HRDTM_14m_NorthAtlanticOcean_Donegal

This composite Digital Terrain Model (cDTM) is a high resolution bathymetry dataset highlighting measurement of depth of water in the ocean. This cDTM covers the North Atlantic Ocean off the coast of County Donegal Ireland. The EMODnet high resolution DTM covers bathymetry surveys completed between 2002 and 2016. Bathymetric data collected on board research vessels using multi-beam and single-beam echosounder instrumentation. Raw bathymetry processed within CARIS software to produce bathymetry products subsequently converted to NetCDF cDTM for EMODnet. Acquisition, processing and product delivery follows IHO standard s44 Edition 5. cDTM is composed of seven (7) images “merged simply” using GLOBE software. INFOMAR (Integrated Mapping for the Sustainable Development of Ireland’s Marine Resource) is a twenty year programme to map the physical, chemical and biological features of Ireland’s seabed established in 2006. INFOMAR is funded by the Department of Communications, Climate Action and Environment (DCCAE), and delivered by joint management partners Geological Survey Ireland and the Marine Institute. The programme is the successor to the Irish National Seabed Survey (INSS) which ran between 1999 and 2005. INFOMAR concentrates on creating integrated mapping products related to the seabed.
3339_Costinesti_MR_HR

The DTM is produced with Kongsberg multibeam echosounder survey, acquired in 2015 by Marine Research Ltd. The resolution is 1/256 arc-minutes (~7.2m). It is located in Costinesti, Romania, on the coastal region of the Black Sea. Depths are referenced to the Mean Sea Level and the coordinates are expressed into the WGS84 reference frame.
EMODnet Bathymetry - Source reference version 2020

The EMODnet DTM is comprised of tens of thousand individual datasets that are carefully selected and processed by the EMODnet Bathymetry team. In case datasets overlap the best possible solution is chosen to deconflict the overlap zone. As a result, the resulting EMODnet DTM is a patchwork of deconflicted individual dataset. The EMODnet source reference service is a graphical representation of this patchwork. It is based on a vector representation of all patches brought together in a topological non-overlapping network. 
The network is created based on a reverse engineering process using the DTM as input. To reduce the amount of noise in this network, the DTM has been reduced by a factor 5 before processing the network. As a result, small overlap with the detailed EMODnet coastline is possible. 
The same network is also used for the EMODnet Quality Index service. 
Each patch in the network defines a number of attributes: 
•	Dataset name (reference to either SeaDataNet or Sextant)
•	Area_type (patch is part of an individual survey or part of a composite DTM)
•	Dataset id (internal EMODnet DTM number)
The attributes are used in the EMODnet data portal to derive at an URL that gives access to the metadata service SeaDataNet of Sextant depending on the Area_type (i.e. the data layer is clickable). 
The colours used in the WMS are randomly generated and have no specific meaning other that to differentiate the patches from one another. 
The service is available in both WMS and WFS
