Target description
Reduction of overexploitation of fish within the transitional waters to the level that the key species natural diversity, abundance, size, and age structure is achieved
Reduction of overexploitation of marine species in the open sea to the level of natural share of large fish in the structure of fish communities.
Maintain or reduce the pressures relating to the input of the nutrient, synthetic and non-synthetic compounds, and organic matter into marine environment, in order to maintain zooplankton size structure and biomass at the current level.
Reduction of the impact of human activity to the level that enables the ecosystem to achieve a state where all elements of the marine trophic chain will show a natural and stable level of abundance and diversity, and the productivity of biotic components guarantees the proper functioning of the food web.
Reduction of the nutrients and organic matter load to the sea, and reduction of the level of exploitation of species listed in the Habitats Directive and Birds Directive to a level that guarantees natural diversity of trophic guilds
Reduction of the nutrients and organic matter load to the sea, and reduction of the level of exploitation of species listed in the Habitats Directive and Birds Directive to a level that guarantees the balance of abundance between trophic guilds.
Not increasing the level of nutrients and organic matter in the environment in order to maintain or increase the share of diatoms in relation to the share of Dinoflagellates in the phytoplankton structure.
Not increasing the pressure associated with the introduction of biogenic substances and organic matter and the scale of exploitation of the species listed in the Birds Directive and the Habitats Directive to a level that guarantees maintenance of the natural size distribution of individuals in the trophic guild.
Not increasing the pressure associated with the introduction of biogenic substances and organic matter and the scale of exploitation of the species listed in the Birds Directive and the Habitats Directive to a level that guarantees maintenance of the natural productivity of trophic guilds.
Reducing the pressures associated with the introduction of biogenic, synthetic, non-synthetic substances, organic matter into the environment as well as pressure related with extraction and compaction of the substrate causing secondary abrasion and siltation in order to restore close to the natural structure of macrozoobenthos communities. In relation to substance introduction, the targets are consistent with those for D5, D8 and D9. In terms of impact on the seabed, the targets are consistent with those for the criteria D6C1, D6C2, D6C3 and D7C1 and D7C2
Maintaining or increasing the productivity of the white-tailed eagle by maintaining or reducing the current level of anthropogenic pressure associated with the introduction of synthetic and non-synthetic compounds into the environment and disturbance in breeding sites.
