| Abstract | Data results supporting IA2017 Indicator Assessment Winter Nutrient Concentrations in the Greater North Sea, Kattegat and Skagerrak. Winter nutrient concentrations indicator 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 of indicators can diagnose eutrophication. Winter concentrations of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) and phosphorus (DIP) have decreased significantly in the southern North Sea and, for DIN, in the Kattegat, Sound and offshore areas of the Skagerrak since 1990. Since 2006, average winter concentrations of DIN and DIP in the area assessed have shown little change. [Version 001] |
