This dataset represents the physical loss of the seabed in the European seas.
<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This raster dataset represents the physical loss of the seabed in the European seas. Physical habitat loss is an extreme pressure on the marine ecosystem which was defined to include all impacts on the seabed which take more than 12 years to recover, a time span influencing even long living marine mammals and seabirds. Habitat is lost if its substrate, morphology or topography is permanently altered.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The dataset is an aggregation of several different human activities that cause physical loss in the seabed: dredging and dumping of dredged material, oil and gas rigs, offshore installations, ports, sand and gravel extraction and windfarms. The resulting dataset is a raster (10km grid cell) derived from EMODnet, MED-IAMER and 4C Offshore datasets and with temporal reference from 2012 to 2017. Higher values mean more loss causing activity in the area. Due to its resolution, loss causing activity in a cell does not usually mean that all the seabed habitat in the area is lost.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>This dataset has been prepared for the calculation of the combined effect index, produced for the ETC/ICM Report 4/2019 "Multiple pressures and their combined effects in Europe's seas" available on: https://www.eionet.europa.eu/etcs/etc-icm/etc-icm-report-4-2019-multiple-pressures-and-their-combined-effects-in-europes-seas-1.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>

The dataset was created by combining 5 different human activities layers:
1. Dredging and dumping of dredged material (EMODnet Human Activities - Dredging: https://www.emodnet-humanactivities.eu/search-results.php?dataname=Dredging, Dumping: https://www.emodnet-humanactivities.eu/search-results.php?dataname=Dredge+Spoil+Dumping+%28Points%29, https://www.emodnet-humanactivities.eu/search-results.php?dataname=Dredge+Spoil+Dumping+%28Polygons%29)
2. Oil and gas rigs, offshore installations (EMODnet: https://www.emodnet-humanactivities.eu/search-results.php?dataname=Offshore+Installations, MED-IAMER: https://www.msp-platform.eu/projects/med-iamer-integrated-actions-mitigate-environmental-risks-mediterranean-sea)
3. Ports (based on EMODnet vessel density 2017, which metadata is available on: https://www.emodnet-humanactivities.eu/search-results.php?dataname=Vessel+Density+)
4. Sand and gravel extraction (EMODnet Human Activities: https://www.emodnet-humanactivities.eu/search-results.php?dataname=Aggregate+Extraction+Points)
5. Windfarms (4C Offshore database: https://www.4coffshore.com/windfarms/)
All human activities layers were normalized and then summed into one raster. The temporal extent varies between the data sources.
