It has not been possible to do cross-species integration.
Only one species has been studied within this GES component. It has not been possible to make integration across other species. |

The assessment obtained by calculating the parameter directly informs the corresponding criterion, for a given marine mammal species, without an integration rule.

| Integration rule description for criteria | GES defined as: When the threshold values for all indicators of each species under all relevant criteria are achieved in the assessment area. GES defined as: When the threshold values for all indicators of each species under relevant criteria are achieved in the assessment area. |
It has only been possible to integrate across D2, D4 and D5 for one species. It has not been possible to make an integration for D1 and D3.
|
The assessment of the criteria was derived from the partial evaluations of the species evaluation under the Habitats Directive.
|
No integration
|
The integration between the criteria and species (element) levels is carried out on the basis of the "One Out All Out" (OOAO) method. Therefore, if one of the criteria for a given species is not in good status in the marine sub-region, then the species (item) is not in good status.
The int... |
Collective expert judgement was used to determine criteria integration. |
Los resultados de la evaluación de los mamíferos marinos en el proyecto MISTIC SEAS 2 no se han integrado porque se consideró inadecuado o, al menos, prematuro, con el nivel actual de información y conocimiento. The OOAO method has been applied directly in the case of primary criteria. In the case of secondary criteria, the expert criterion has also been taken into account for integration. |
For assessment and integration of environmental status it is essential to collect a wider/diverse set of data, filling gaps for a precision assessment. the suggested integration rule OOAO (WG BEA, 2017) could offer a reliable and robust integration method if the status of each element, criterion,...
