100 % of the coastal waters are not in a good state with regards to visibility depth. The evaluation period is 2007-2012. The assessment was carried out on the basis of the individual water bodies and not on the basis of the aggregated evaluation units used for the EEA Prefill. The assessme...
81.4 % of coastal waters are in good condition with respect to ground-level oxygen concentrations. 18.6 % of the coastal waters lost their good status. The evaluation period is 2011-2016. The assessment was carried out on the basis of the individual water bodies aggregated over all coastal waters and not on the basis of the aggregated assessment units used for the EEA Prefill.
The element is also reported at the assessment level of the coastal waters of the Baltic Sea, as the WFD Prefill of the EEA cannot be checked for technical correctness. The evaluation is based on the period 2007-2012. The biological quality element macrophyte of the WFD is used to evaluate D5C6 opportunistic macroalgae. This includes both macrophytes and opportunistic macroalgae in an index.

Integration rule description parameter
At the level of the parameters and within the categories, weighted averaging was carried out. For the assessment in accordance with HELCOM, no weighting was applied to the units with a German share: Kiel Bay, Mecklenburg Bay, Arkona Basin and Bornholm Basin. Only a simple averaging of the individual parameters took place.

Mecklenburg-Vorpommern uses the national assessment method 'Phytoplankton Coastal Waters' (Saert et al. 2008) for the assessment of the biological quality component phytoplankton which also includes the biovolume of green algae (Chlorophyceae) and blue algae (cyanobacteria).
The biological quality element macrophytes was not created in the EEA Prefill although it was reported under the WFD. It was therefore completed here, but it was not possible to reconstruct the calculation method for the percentage of the MRU that had reached or missed the good status, which meant that this information could not be provided.

At the level of the parameters and within the categories, weighted averaging was carried out. For the assessment in accordance with HELCOM, no weighting was applied to the units with a German share: Kiel Bay, Mecklenburg Bay, Arkona Basin and Bornholm Basin. Only a simple averaging of the individual parameters took place (weighting factor 1).

Integration rule description parameter
At the level of the parameters and within the categories, weighted averaging was carried out. For the assessment in accordance with HELCOM, no weighting was applied to the units with a German share: Kiel Bay, Mecklenburg Bay, Arkona Basin and Bornholm Basin. Only a simple averaging of the individual parameters took place (weighting factor 1).
