As part of EEA's ongoing security and identity management improvements, we are currently migrating the system to Entra ID authentication.
We kindly ask all users to start using Entra ID credentials when logging in to the system. 

Please note that LDAP authentication will be phased out and disabled by the end of August 2026.
We encourage you to verify that you can successfully access the system and that your account and permissions function as expected after Entra ID login.
Should you encounter any issues or require assistance during this transition, please contact Laszlo Cseh at laszlo.cseh@eaudeweb.ro 
Thank you for your cooperation and support.

Description overall status
There are no clear trends in recent years for the populations of cephalopods and an assessment of the current state of the various cephalpoda populations is not possible at present because of the uncertain data situation. As a general rule, the assessments should be based on the migration and wide spread of many octopus in biologically relevant reference areas, which generally exceed national competences. Therefore, the evidence base and valuation methods for conditions and pressures affecting octopus should be improved as well as regional coordination and evaluation by OSPAR.
