Emodnet Chemistry
EMODnet Chemistry provides the public with interoperable quality data and products on marine water quality issues.
The activity of Emodnet Chemistry is firstly to collect, validate and provide access to marine pollution data streams, and secondly to generate and publish corresponding data products. The datasets collected since the 1970s on marine chemistry number over 1 million and have been assembled for different groups of variables in seawater, sediment and biota.
Six major European marine regions are currently covered by EMODnet Chemistry: the Arctic Ocean (the Norwegian Sea including the Barents Sea), Baltic Sea, the north-eastern Atlantic Ocean (Celtic Sea, Iberian Coast and Bay of Biscay, Macaronesia), North Sea, Black Sea, Mediterranean Sea.
