Trends in dissolved inorganic nitrogen and orthophosphate concentrations in Europe’s transitional, coastal and marine waters, 1980-2021
Trends in concentrations of nitrogen (dissolved inorganic nitrogen—DIN) and phosphorus (orthophosphate) in the upper 10m of the water column in European seas during the season of low phytoplankton growth ...

Number of time series available showing increasing, decreasing or no trends in dissolved inorganic nitrogen and orthophosphate concentrations for each regional sea during the period 2017-2021
The different sea regions are presented in the Y axis. The X axis corresponds to the number of time series with statistically significant decreasing trends (green), increasing trends (orange) and no trends (grey). Statistical significance at p<0.05.…

Nutrients in Europe's transitional, coastal and marine waters
Eutrophication in marine, coastal and estuarine ecosystems is caused by human activities that introduce excess nutrients into water, leading to harmful effects. To address this, Europe adopted an integrated strategy to reducing nutrient inputs. Nutr…
Nutrients in Europe's transitional, coastal and marine waters (Indicator)
Key messages: Eutrophication is still a large-scale problem in the Baltic, Black and Greater North Seas and some coastal areas of the Mediterranean. Nutrient levels declined significantly between 1980 and 2021 but eutrophication remains an important …
