Surface water status, by river basin district (RBD)
Natura 2000 sites, public forests and riparian corridors: The connectivity backbone of forest green infrastructure
The map indicates, from red to dark blue, the rating of corridors with an increasing number of ecosystem services (i.e. erosion control, crop pollination, water retention, and outdoor recreation) above the average ecosystem services delivery outside Natura 2000 areas at the national scale of Spain.
Corine Land Cover 2006 (raster 100m) - version 16 clipped by Ireland country
Quietness of areas accessible at 1h time (detail). Area of Freiburg (DE)
The map displays the fraction of sites where the maximum chemical concentration exceeds the acute risk threshold (left) and the mean chemical concentration exceeds the chronic risk threshold (right) for any organism group. The color code in the map shows the level of chemical risk, from low chemical risk (green) to high chemical risk (red).
Water bodies have been classified under the Water Framework Directive. Blue areas are water bodies at good chemical status. Red streams are failing to achieve good chemical status. Grey areas are not classified for chemical status. The river and floodplain sediments have been contaminated with the waste and mine water over centuries. In the floodplains high lead and cadmium concentrations affect the agriculture at pasture and arable land along the river floodplains.
Ecosystem type map V2.1 - all classes - (EUNIS Level 2) derived from CORINE Land Cover and additional spatial explicite european datasets according to defined rule set. The rule set builds on the crosswalk between EUNIS nomenclature and CORINE Land Cover nomenclature. The multiple assignements are resolved using additional data like Art. 17 reporting data on habitat types, soil data, HANTS phenological data, potential natural vegetation, elevation zones, etc.
The dataset combines the Copernicus land service portfolio and marine bathymetry and seabed information with the non-spatial EUNIS habitat classification for a better biological characterization of ecosystems across Europe. As such it represents probabilities of EUNIS habitat presence for each MAES ecosystem type.
