Description parameter |
The threshold value of GES has been set according to the methodology developed by WG HELCOM FISH PRO II (http://www.helcom.fi/baltic-sea-trends/indicators/abundance-of-key-coastal-fish-species/assessment-protocol/). Depending on background conditions, the threshold values of GES are set using different methodologies for different MRU-s. Therefore the threshold values of GES have transferred to scale 0-1. According to the methodology, GES values over 0,6 are showing GES. |
