Map shows classification of direct effects of nutrient enrichment for marine waters all over Europe, based on HEAT+ tool. The direct effects of nutrient enrichment include an accelerated growth of either phytoplankton in the upper part of the water column or perennial macroalgae in shallow coastal waters.<\/SPAN><\/P>

Status is evaluated in five classes:<\/SPAN><\/P>

- NPAhigh and NPAgood are recognised as \u2018non-problem areas\u2019<\/SPAN><\/P>

- PAmoderate, PApoor and PAbad are recognised as \u2018problem areas\u2019<\/SPAN><\/P>

Data coverage for coastal water is in general good for the Baltic Sea and most parts of the North Sea/Skagerrak/Kattegat regions. For open waters, data coverage is good for the Baltic Sea, for the southern and eastern parts the North Sea and for the Celtic Sea.<\/SPAN><\/P>

Data coverage regarding 'direct effects' is poor for the Black Sea and for most parts of the Mediterranean Sea as well.<\/SPAN><\/P>
