The map shows distribution and delineation of Marine Protected Areas (MPA) networks in MPA assessment areas of the European regional seas. Here, MPA networks consist of <\/SPAN>all the different considered networks: Natura 2000, Nationally Designates Sites (NDS), and Regional Sea Convention (RSC) sites.<\/SPAN> <\/SPAN>The baseline information<\/SPAN> is based on MPA data reported at the end of 2019. <\/SPAN><\/P>

<\/P>

The spatial extent of the MPA assessment areas was defined as the marine waters surrounding the EU countries whose outer limit is defined by the 200 NM boundary from the coast (possibly coinciding with formally recognised EEZ boundaries) or the equidistance (in cases of opposite neighbouring EU countries), or by the presence of a boundary defined by an agreed treaty.<\/SPAN><\/P>
