Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | Shapefile delineating the United Kingdom (UK) Marine Stategy Framework Directive (MSFD) marine strategy area, MSFD subregions for the Greater North Sea and Celtic Seas and reporting areas used in Charting Progress 2 and the UK MSFD Initial Assessment. |
Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | This dataset was produced using a number of datasets supplied to Cefas. This included the boundary of the MSFD area (based on the UK Renewable Energy Zone and limits of the UK continental shelf), Water Framework Directive (WFD), Coastal and Transitional waterbodies (supplied by Environment Agency, Scottish Environmental Protection Agency and Northern Ireland Environment Agency) and using boundaries between Charting Progress 2 reporting areas. The attributes were developed in line with MSFD reporting requirements. |
