Contaminants-Anthracene: stations below LOD/LOQ v2019

This product displays the stations where anthracene 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).  
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

Data sources: observational data from SeaDataNet/EMODNet Chemistry Data Network. 
Description of DIVAnd analysis: the computation was done with DIVAnd (Data-Interpolating Variational Analysis in n dimensions), version 2.7.4, using GEBCO 15 sec topography for the spatial connectivity of water masses. The horizontal resolution of the produced DIVAnd maps is 0.01 degrees. Horizontal correlation length is defined seasonally (in meters): 150000 (winter), 100000 (spring), 70000 (summer), 115000 (autumn). Vertical correlation length was optimized and vertically filtered and a seasonally-averaged profile was used (DIVAnd.fitvertlen). Signal-to-noise ratio was fixed to 1 for vertical profiles and 0.1 for time series to account for the redundancy in the time series observations. A logarithmic transformation (DIVAnd.Anam.loglin) was applied to the data prior to the analysis to avoid unrealistic negative values. Background field: the vertically-filtered data mean profile is substracted from the data. Detrending of data: no, advection constraint applied: no.

Vertical correlation length is defined as twice the vertical resolution. Signal-to-noise ratio was fixed to 1 for vertical profiles and 0.1 for time series to account for the redundancy in the time series observations. A logarithmic transformation (DIVAnd.Anam.loglin) was applied to the data prior to the analysis to avoid unrealistic negative values. Background field: a vertically-filtered profile of the seasonal data mean value (including all years) is substracted from the data. 
Detrending of data: no, advection constraint applied: no.
