Q4f - Programme description | The monitoring programme for seabed habitats consists of about 16 subprogrammes that fulfils the main parts of the DPSIR causal framework:
"Seabed habitats
• Mobile species (species composition, abundance)
• Mobile species population characteristics (body size, age ,sex, fecundity, mortality)
• State of habitats (habitat for species, extent, suitability)
• Mortality rates from anthropogenic activities
• Distribution and extent (incl. habitat forming species and biogenic reefs)
• Physical characteristics (topography, bathymetry, organics, oxygen levels)
• Chemical characteristics (nutrients, Oxygen, ph/CO2)
• Community characteristics (species composition, abundance and/or biomass)
• Benthic species (species composition, abundance, coverage)
Pressures
• Physical loss –distribution and extent (infrastructure)
• Physical loss –dredging and disposal of dredged materials
• Pysical disturbance from sand and gravel extraction
• Pysical disturbance from bottom trawling
Activities
• Extracting linving ressources
• Extracting non-living ressources
• Permanent infrastructures |

Information on hydrological changes of watercolumn, infrastructure and recreational activities will be included in the programme at a later stage in order to render a more complete description of the main elements. However, in many of the other programmes of the MSFD information can be made available e.g. from habitatmapping, characterisitcs of the watercolumn. |

Q4l - Links of monitoring programmes of other Directives and Conventions | The purpose of the sand eel dredge survey is to collect sand eels buried in the seabed and compare catches (number and age composition) with the previous year's collections to assess year class strength of the lesser sand eel (Ammodytes marinus) in the different areas adopted by ICES in 2009. Data from the dredge survey is the basis for calculating a 0-group index, which is used in stock assessment. The 2014 survey is planned to be conducted with the commercial fishing vessel Salling. All species are specified and counted and weighted and station information with depth and temperature is recorded. On all new positions a bottom sample (a Van Veen grab) is taken to determine the sediment chracteristics and/or type.

- 165 dredge hauls and 40 sediment grab sample distributed over 55 planned sample positions. |
There are no specific technical descriptions of the methods behing the distribution maps. It takes place in two phases - mapping of bottom substrates using either side scan sonar or multibeam sonar and surveys of the biological compositions of the areas using videosurveys. Definitions of the habitattypes follows a habitattype description written by the Danish Nature Agency in coorperation with DCE.

The monitoring program is developped for both the Water Frame directive and addapted and expanded for the Habitats directive. It monitors development, species composition and biodiversity on reefs at different depths. It will therefor contribute to the monitoring of meassures regarding biodiversity and development for macroalgae on reefs. |

DTU Aqua has access to VMS data from all Danish commercial vessels from 2005 (above 15 meters) and from 2012 (above 12 meters). VMS data has been linked to logbook data and can therefore show pressure on the seabed by gear and target species. The access is to all Danish vessels within this size category in all waters. |

Q4j - Description of spatial scope | The sand-eel survey is conducted on sandbanks in the North Sea where sandeel is or has been present historically. The stations have been selected in cooperation with the industry and are fixed stations. If new stations are added to the survey sediment sample is taken to confirm that the bottom environment is suitable for sand eels. |
The monitoring is not systematic. Larger scale distribution mapping of reefs, bubbling reefs and sandbanks started in 2006. (Mapping of sandbanks started in 2011)Mapping takes place within Natura 2000 areas and specific mapping of deep muddy bottom and shallow mud surfaces are not mapped. |
Some areas have older monitoring than others. Monitoring started in 1989 and was expanded in 2004 to include all open water reefs designated as SAC and macroflora along coastal hard substrates
The monitoring was originally intended to describe the state of the reef in relation to the Water frame directive. It now also supplies data for the state of the reefs for the habitat directive. As such most monitoring stations are found within the Natura 2000 areas |
The program including rationale for the geographic scope can be found here:

The program including rationale for the geographic scope can be found here:
http://naturstyrelsen.dk/naturbeskyttelse/national-naturbeskyttelse/overvaagning-af-vand-og-natur/novana-program/ |
Vessel monitoring systems (VMS) are used in commercial fishing to allow environmental and fisheries regulatory organizations to monitor, minimally, the position, time at a position, and course and speed of fishing vessels. They are a key part of the Danish monitoring control and surveillance programs. |
All our dumping cites for dredged materials are placed within the coastal water zone. |
The geographic scope of the programme depends on the needs for marin sand and gravel material. |

Q9c - Monitoring method | In the manual all relevant information on the sampling type can be found. However, all fish/ animals are specified to species or species group counted and weighted and station information with depth and temperature is recorded. On all new positions a bottom sample (a Van Veen grab) is taken to determinied the sediment type. |
Methods are described in the mapping reports such as the 2011 report which can be found here: http://www2.nst.dk/Download/Udgivelser/N2000_Marin_raastof_naturtypekort_kattegat_oestersoe_2011.pdf |
Technical program description is currently under revision. Overall method is similar but varies between three selection methods: Data is gathered by a diver either along a transect coastally or at three or four stations at different depths on open sea reefs.

Q9g - Spatial resolution of sampling | Q9g - No. of samples | Sidescan data is gatherered covering most of the bottom of the mapped Natura 2000 sites. Number of videosamles vary |
In one year: 1) 32 annual open ocean reef samples are taken, 2) app 7 open ocean samples (with a total of app. 40 samples within 6 years) 3) app 50 coastal macroalgae transects are gathered every year. |
34% of the total vessels operating in this area were above 12 meters in 2013 |
The number of samples is different every year, depending on the need for sand and gravel. |
|||||
Q9i - Description of sample representivity | Monitoring frequency varies from every year to every six years for different sampling areas and sampling types within this subprogram. |
The Danish marine dumping sites occupy 68km3 of our coastal waters and as all dumping events are reported with respect to total amounts of dredged material dumped. It is within this logic concluded that 100% of the 68Km is monitored.
No samples are expected to be taken from the sea bottom within the proportion given above. Ass explained in C9 the data consists of material volumes and there levels of contamination with certain pollutants mentioned in 9a. These data are collected before the dredged material is dumped on the dumping sites. |
The volume of extraction is monitored every quarter or more often. The volume of extraction in common areas can be seen at the Danish Nature Agency homepage: http://naturstyrelsen.dk/vandmiljoe/havet/raastoffer/statistik-om-raastoffer/
Surveys (topography, bathymetri and seabed habitat types etc.) must be carried out before licens for sand and gravel extraction can be obtained in new areas. In 2014 approx 10 new areas have been investigated.
The Danish Nature Agency has since 2010 conducted surveys of a number of larger areas, e.g. the North Sea, Kattegat . |

Q10b - Other scale for aggregation of data | Currently the definitions of the habitat types are not agreed upon between countries,. The definition fits within the definition described in the habitatsdirective, but could still vary from country to country. However, if other countries have similar maps produced an overall view of the the distribution of habitat types should be possible. Danish data is currently used for fisheries regulation in an international setting - where other countries have fishing rights in Danish waters |
