Abstract Data results supporting IA2017 Indicator Assessment Concentrations of Dissolved Oxygen Near the Seafloor. Dissolved oxygen is one of a suite of five eutrophication indicators. When assessed and considered together in the OSPAR Common Procedure in a multi-step method, the suite can be used to diagnose eutrophication. Overall, there is not a problem with dissolved oxygen concentrations near the seafloor in the areas assessed. However, there is oxygen depletion in some localised areas. Improvements in levels of dissolved oxygen concentrations have been observed in the Kattegat. [Version 001]
