Description parameter
Based on the available concentration data sets per station, a "State" metric (concentration of the substance under consideration) is defined according to different statistical models. The method used to calculate the "State" metric is an adapted version of the method used in OSPAR assessments (http://dome.ices.dk/osparmime/help_methods_biota_metals.html and http://dome.ices.dk/osparmime/help_methods_less_thans.html). A trend metric over the period 2010-2015 was also defined for each station where the time series of concentration data allowed a trend analysis (i.e. a time series of at least 5 years). Number of stations for which the contaminant reaches good status: 106Number of stations for which the contaminant does not reach good status: 0 The absence of a threshold for the percentage of stations for which the contaminant reaches good status does not allow conclusions to be drawn on whether or not the parameter being assessed has been reached.
For each station monitored: comparison of the threshold with the standardised concentration of the contaminant using a statistical approach derived from that developed by OSPAR (http://dome.ices.dk/OSPARMIME2016/help_methods_sediment_metals.html). Note that only one sediment value per substance*station pair is available every six years, i.e. between 2010 and 2015. The thresholds considered in the sediment are the Effects Range Low (ERL) developed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US-EPA) Number of stations for which the contaminant reaches good status: 74Number of stations for which the contaminant does not reach good status: 13 The absence of a threshold for the percentage of stations for which the contaminant reaches good status does not allow conclusions to be drawn on whether or not the parameter evaluated has been reached.

A "Trend" metric for the period 2010-2015 was also defined for each station where the time series of concentration data allowed for trend analysis (i.e. a time series of at least 5 years). No thresholds are currently available for chromium concentrations. Therefore, only the metric "Trend" is analysed for this contaminant. Number of stations for which the contaminant does not reach good status: 6Number of stations for which no conclusion on whether or not the good status of the contaminant has been reached (stable or negative trend): 44 The absence of a threshold for the number of stations for which the contaminant does not reach good status does not allow to conclude on the non-achievement of the parameter evaluated. It should be noted that for chromium, this parameter can only be used to assess failure to achieve good status (absence of threshold concentration value not to be exceeded).

Nickel concentrations in sediment exceed the threshold for 80% of the monitored stations with no known major sources for this element. Two hypotheses can be made: either the origin of the nickel is not well traced or the threshold is not appropriate, at least in France, with a proposed value that is too low. The latter hypothesis is notably supported by the fact that the threshold value is close to the geochemical background concentration. However, these hypotheses need to be further investigated and verified. Moreover, for nickel in bivalves, no threshold is currently available but concentrations are increasing between 2010 and 2015 at the coastline from the Tech mouth to Grau d'Agde (Hérault mouth) and in the Gulf of Fos.

Description overall status
The assessment is carried out for each contaminant in two compartments of the marine environment (sediments - bivalve molluscs) at the level of the basic unit of assessment which is the station. There is therefore no aggregation at the scale of the MRU, which does not make it possible to conclude on the overall status of the substance. Moreover, no threshold value is currently defined at the level of the overall status of the attribute. However, the assessment of D8C1 in this "Coast" MRU shows that:1/ In sediments, some contaminants are not in good condition on at least one station. This is the case for the 7 metals evaluated, for most hydrocarbons (PAHs) and for all polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), in particular for a "dioxin" congener, CB 118. Exceedances of the threshold value for metals are observed at the stations located between the east of Fos-sur-Mer and Nice and in Corsica, for PAHs over the whole of the Western Mediterranean marine sub-region and for PCBs from the mouth of the Petit-Rhône to the Bay of Marseille and the Bay of Nice.2 / In bivalve molluscs, some contaminants are not in good condition at several stations: lead at three stations around Toulon - PCB 118 in the Fos - Marseille - Toulon region - PAHs at many stations along the Spanish border, as well as between Fos and Toulon - and all organochlorine pesticides monitored at several stations throughout the Western Mediterranean Marine Sub-Region. In addition, threshold value exceedances are observed for tributyltin (TBT) at 20 stations (37% of the stations monitored), 11 of which are near the mouth of the Rhone.

The assessment is carried out for each contaminant in two compartments of the marine environment (sediments - bivalve molluscs) at the level of the basic unit of assessment which is the station. There is therefore no aggregation at the scale of the MRU, which does not make it possible to conclude on the overall status of the substance. Moreover, no threshold value is currently defined at the level of the overall status of the attribute. However, the assessment of D8C1 in this "Coast" MRU shows that:1/ In sediments, some contaminants are not in good condition on at least one station.

Description parameter
This parameter is based on measurements of contaminant concentrations in two species of fish that were carried out during the fishing campaigns over the period 2014-2015 (territorial waters and offshore coverage area). For each fish species, a "State" metric is defined and corresponds to the 95 percentile of the concentrations measured for the contaminant in question. The "State" metric obtained for the contaminant in question, and for each species, is compared with the available threshold.

Description overall status
The assessment is carried out, for each contaminant, at the level of the basic unit of assessment which is the species. There is therefore no integration of the species, which does not allow conclusions to be drawn on the overall state of the substance in the environment. Moreover, no threshold value is currently defined at the level of the general status of the GES component. However, the assessment of D8C1 in this "Large" MRU shows that threshold exceedances are observed for various PCB congeners in mackerel and hake in the Western Mediterranean marine sub-region.
