Description element
Coastal areas were assessed based on indicator 5.2A (chlorophyll and biovolume), building on the assessment done according to the Water Framework Directive but aggregated to coastal water type. Good environmental status was reached for approximately 51 % of the coastal waters in the Swedish part of the Gulf of Bothnia (BAL-SE-AA-BG_Bottniska_Viken). No method is available for quantitative assessment of good environmental status at criteria level.
For the open sea, assessment was made based on regionally agreed indicators (indicators 1.6A, 5.3A, 5.3B) plus a national indicator species composition of phytoplankton (indicator 1.6B).For open sea areas, threshold values are reached for all indicators assessed in Bothnian Sea (BAL-SE-AA-U_Bottenhavet) och BothnianBay (BAL-SE-AA-U_Bottenviken) but not in BAL-SE-AA-U-Alands_Hav.

Coastal areas were assessed based on indicator 5.2A (chlorophyll and biovolume), building on the assessment done according to the Water Framework Directive but aggregated to coastal water type. Good environmental status was reached for approximately 26 % of the coastal waters in the Swedish part of the Baltic Proper (BAL-SE-AA-BG_Egentliga_Ostersjon). No method is available for quantitative assessment of good environmental status at criteria level
For the open sea, assessment was made based on regionally agreed indicators (indicators 1.6A, 5.3A, 5.3B) plus a national indicator species composition of phytoplankton (indicator 1.6B). No method is available for quantitative assessment of good environmental status at criteria level.For the open sea in the Baltic Proper threshold values for at least one of the indicators assessed were not reached in any of the five basins. No integration with other indicators could be done because of lack of quantitative thresholds for some indicators
