Target description |
The global objective is: "Seas with sustainably and carefully used resources". The objective is implemented by means of the operational objectives TSO4.1, UZO4.2, UZO4.3, UZO4.4, UZO4.5 and UZO4.6. The environmental objectives established in 2012 and their description under the 2012 MSFD report continue to apply. They are the basis for the 2016-2021 programme of measures for notified to the European Commission in 2016. Since the implementation of the measures was only started in 2016, an assessment of the progress and effectiveness of the measures as a basis for updating the environmental objectives is often not yet possible. Where possible, the text report shows the achievement of objectives and/or the state of implementation of the measures. Only in individual cases where an indicator assessment is available on progress towards achieving the target will this be reported in the Progress Assessment.

Within the protected areas in the German Baltic Sea, the protection objectives and purposes a priority. Particular attention should be paid to the specific public interests of coastal protection in the exploitation of non-living resources, and should only be taken into consideration after careful assessment of alternatives.
The environmental objectives established by Germany in 2012 are the basis for the 2016-2021 programme of measures notified to the European Commission in 2016. Since the implementation of the measures was only started in 2016, an assessment of the progress and effectiveness of the measures as a basis for updating the environmental objectives is often not yet possible. Where possible, the text report shows the achievement of objectives and/or the state of implementation of the measures. Only in individual cases where an indicator assessment is available on progress towards achieving the target will this be reported in the Progress Assessment. However, in relation to birds, it was found that the environmental objective was not achieved.
|
The exploitation or exploration of non-living resources will not damage or seriously disrupt the ecosystem components of the German Baltic Sea, in particular the fragile, declining and protected species and habitats. Breeding, rearing, moulting, hibernation and migration periods, as well as the breeding, resting and feeding sites of the species concerned, shall be particularly taken into account.

The objective is "seas without interference from anthropogenic energy inputs". The objective is implemented by means of the operational objectives UZO6.1, UZO6.2, UZO6.3, UZO6.4 and UZO6.5.
The environmental objectives established in 2012 and their description under the 2012 MSFD report continue to apply. They are the basis for the 2016-2021 programme of measures notified to the European Commission in 2016. Since the implementation of the measures was only started in 2016, an assessment of the progress and effectiveness of the measures as a basis for updating the environmental objectives is often not yet possible. Where possible, the text report shows the achievement of objectives and the state of implementation of the measures respectively. Only in individual cases where an indicator assessment on progress towards achieving the target is available, will this be reported in the Progress Assessment.
|
The anthropogenic heat input does not have negative spatial and temporal impacts and does not exceed the agreed limit values respectively. In territorial waters, a temperature increase of 2 K in 30cm depth and in the EEZ an increase of 2 K in 20cm sediment depth respectively will not be exceeded.

The objective is "seas with natural hydro-morphological characteristics". The objective is implemented by means of the operational objectives UZO7.1, UZO7.2 and UZO7.3.

Where possible, the text report shows the achievement of objectives and/or the state of implementation of the measures. The indicator evaluation on progress towards achieving targets is reported in the Progress Report on operational objectives.

Changes in habitats and, in particular, habitat functions (e.g. spawning, nursery and feeding grounds, or migration routes of fish, birds and mammals) due to man-made alterations of the hydrographical situation do not lead, alone or cumulatively, to a risk to species or habitats or to the loss of populations respectively.
