EMODnet Chemistry

EMODnet (European Marine Observation and Data Network) is the long term marine data initiative supported by the European Commission since 2009 to ensure that European marine data will become easily accessible, interoperable, and free on restrictions on use. EMODnet Chemistry provides access to standardized, harmonized and validated chemical data collections for water quality evaluation at a regional scale, as defined by the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD). The data portal has adopted and adapted SeaDataNet standards and services, establishing interoperability between the data sets from the many different providers (more than 60 in EMODnet Chemistry network). Concentration maps of nutrients, chlorophyll-a and dissolved oxygen are computed on a standard grid, providing information at a regular time interval, per season and over several vertical layers, including the deepest one. Dedicated OGC standard services for browsing, viewing and downloading chemistry observation, data and data products for the European waters have been developed, and are actively maintained and monitored.

Statement
Observations, checked and completed with a standard set of metadata that provide the basic information necessary for their long-term use, flow from the network of National Oceanographic Data Centers (NODCs). Data aggregation and regional QC are performed at regional scale, following a common protocol, and in synergy with the data collators (NODCs) correcting errors or anomalies in the original copy of the data available in the EMODnet infrastructure. Data products suitable to visualize the time evolution of a selected group of measurements specifically relevant for MSFD descriptor 5 (eutrophication), 8 (chemical pollution), and 9 (contaminants in seafood) are created at regional scale.
