The Floods Directive (FD) was adopted in 2007 (https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=celex:32007L0060). The purpose of the FD is to establish a framework for the assessment and management of flood risks, aiming at the reduction of the adverse consequences for human health, the environment, cultural heritage and economic activity associated with floods in the European Union. ‘Flood’ means the temporary covering by water of land not normally covered by water. This shall include floods from rivers, mountain torrents, Mediterranean ephemeral water courses, and floods from the sea in coastal areas, and may exclude floods from sewerage systems. This reference spatial dataset, reported under the Floods Directive, includes the areas of potential significant flood risk (APSFR), as they were lastly reported by the Member States to the European Commission, and the Units of Management (UoM).
"Carte Géologique Internationale de l'Europe et des Régions Méditerranéennes 1 : 1 500 000" - Anlässlich des 2. Internationalen Geologen-Kongresses in Bologna 1881 wurde von der neu gegründeten "Kommission für die geologische Karte von Europa" der Beschluss zur Herausgabe einer Internationalen Geologischen Karte von Europa im Maßstab 1 : 1 500 000 (IGK 1500) gefasst. In den Händen der Kommission lag die Kompilierung und Herausgabe des Kartenwerkes; Redaktion und Druck oblag der Preußischen Geologischen Landesanstalt und ihrer Nachfolger, sprich dem Reichsamt für Bodenforschung und der Bundesanstalt für Geowissenschaften und Rohstoffe. 1913 - 32 Jahre nach dem Beschluss zur Erstellung des Kartenwerks - wurde die 1. Auflage mit 49 Blättern fertig gestellt. Für eine 2. Auflage entschied man sich bereits 1910. Doch bedingt durch die beiden Weltkriege wurden zwischen 1933 und 1959 nur 12 Blätter gedruckt. 1960 fiel der Vorschlag für eine kombinierte 2. und 3. Auflage der Karte. Im Zuge dieser Neukonzeption erschien 1962 eine neue Legende, 1970 deren Erweiterung. 1964 wurden die ersten Blätter der Neuauflage gedruckt. Ende 1999 lagen alle 45 Kartenblätter der Neuauflage vor, wobei das letzte Blatt "AMMAN" bereits digital mit Freehand 8 erstellt ist. Titelblatt und Generallegende, die auf zwei Blättern des Kartenwerks platziert sind, wurden im Frühjahr 2000 - 87 Jahre nach Abschluss der 1. Auflage - gedruckt. Das vollständige Gesamtwerk der Internationalen Geologischen Karte von Europa im Maßstab 1 : 1 500 000 (IGK 1500) wurde auf dem Internationalen Geologen-Kongress in Rio de Janeiro im August 2000 vorgestellt. Die IGK 1500 zeigt auf 55 Blättern die Geologie des europäischen Kontinents vom Osten des Uralgebirges bis Island sowie der gesamten Mittelmeerregion. Die Geologie wird unterschieden nach Stratigraphie, magmatischen und metamorphen Gesteinen. Zusätzlich gibt es zwei Legendenblätter und ein Titelblatt. Die Sprache des Kartenwerks ist Französisch.
Die Internationale Hydrogeologische Karte von Europa im Maßstab 1:1.500.000 (IHME1500) ist ein Kartenwerk hydrogeologischer Übersichtskarten, das aus 25 Kartenblättern mit dazugehörigen Erläuterungen besteht und das den gesamten europäischen Kontinent und Teile des Nahen Ostens abdeckt. Die nationalen Beiträge zu diesem Kartenwerk werden von Hydrogeologen und Spezialisten anderer verwandter Wissenschaftsbereiche unter der Schirmherrschaft der Internationalen Assoziation der Hydrogeologen (IAH) und ihrer Kommission für Hydrogeologische Karten (COHYM) geleistet. Das Kartenprojekt wird von der Kommission für die Geologische Weltkarte (CGMW) unterstützt. Die wissenschaftlich-redaktionelle Arbeit wird finanziell durch die Regierung der Bundesrepublik Deutschland über die Bundesanstalt für Geowissenschaften und Rohstoffe (BGR) und die Organisation der Vereinten Nationen für Bildung, Wissenschaft und Kultur (UNESCO) gesponsert. Beide Organisationen sind für die Kartographie, den Druck und die Publikation der Kartenblätter und Erläuterungen verantwortlich. In der IHME1500 werden die hydrogeologischen Gegebenheiten von Europa als Ganzes ohne Berücksichtigung politischer Grenzen dargestellt. Gemeinsam mit den begleitenden Erläuterungsheften kann das Kartenwerk für wissenschaftliche Zielstellungen, für regionale Planungen und als Grundlage für detaillierte hydrogeologische Kartierarbeiten genutzt werden.
This metadata refer to the dataset presenting the annual change in the basic reproduction number (R0) for chikungunya transmission in the period 1951-2021. The basic reproduction number of chikungunya from Aedes mosquitos is calculated using a model to capture the influence of temperature and rainfall on mosquito vectorial capacity and mosquito abundance, and overlaying it with human population density data to estimate the R0 (i.e., the expected number of secondary infections resulting from one infected person).
The service contains information on the European monitoring sites used for the assessment of the status of surface water bodies and groundwater bodies in the 2nd River Basin Management Plans (RBMP). The information was reported to the European Commission under the Water Framework Directive (WFD) reporting obligations. The dataset compiles the available spatial data related to the 2nd RBMPs due in 2016 (hereafter WFD2016). See http://rod.eionet.europa.eu/obligations/715 for further information on the WFD2016 reporting. Relevant concepts: Monitoring site: [Operational definition. Not in the WFD] Monitoring point included in a WFD surveillance, operational or investigative monitoring programme. Surface water body: Body of surface water means a discrete and significant element of surface water such as a lake, a reservoir, a stream, river or canal, part of a stream, river or canal, a transitional water or a stretch of coastal water. Surface water: Inland waters, except groundwater; transitional waters and coastal waters, except in respect of chemical status for which it shall also include territorial waters. Groundwater body: 'Body of groundwater' means a distinct volume of groundwater within an aquifer or aquifers. Groundwater: All water which is below the surface of the ground in the saturation zone and in direct contact with the ground or subsoil.
The initial study area of the cruise MSM14/2 GeoNORM (Geophysik im noerdlichen Roten Meer) was the northern Red Sea. However, because of not given research permissions from Egypt and Saudi Arabia, the study area had to be changed to the alternative study area Eratosthenes Seamount (ESM), south of Cyprus. The ESM is supposed to represent a continental fragment of the former African-Arabian Plate that is entering the subduction zone south of Cyprus i.e. the subduction turns into collision in the area of the ESM. This changed the entire tectonic setting in the Eastern Mediterranean. Therefore, the tectonic evolution of the area is rather complex with phases of extension, subduction, compression, salt tectonics and gravitational processes and not comprehensively understood. Because of the isolation of the ESM as a continental fragment this region is an ideal spot to investigate the transition from regular subduction to continental collision and its associated tectonic processes i.e. faults were activated or reactivated, transform motion has to be compensated, the overriding plate has been elevated. This impacts the ongoing geological and tectonic processes in this region but also influences the social and economic life in the Eastern Mediterranean as earthquakes and submarine landslides are possible geohazards and the entering of the ESM to the subduction trench alters the thermal history of the adjacent sedimentary basins significantly what should have an influence on the maturity processes within the source rock sediments and new faults open new migration paths for hydrocarbon fluids or gases.
This dataset provides data on how much financial, capacity building and technology support the EU Member States and other countries have either planned, committed, or provided to developing countries in relation to climate change mitigation or adaptation. The dataset holds further details on the provided support, e.g., the recipient of support, the financial instrument, the funding source, the concrete projects which benefited or the targeted sector. The Member States submit their data to the European Environment Agency (EEA) via the online platform Reportnet 3. Reporting is mandatory for EU Member States. Some information is only mandatory to report if the data is available. The data is then quality checked by DG CLIMA at the European Commission. DG CLIMA also performs aggregation of the data and combines them with other data sources (European Investment Bank, European Commission). This data is being collected under Article 19 of the Governance Regulation 2018/1999. The Regulation aims to help the EU meet its 2030 climate and energy targets by setting common rules for planning, reporting and monitoring. The Regulation also ensures that EU planning and reporting are synchronised with the ambition cycles under the Paris Agreement. Within the data download, there is an additional document providing detailed statistical metadata information on this dataset.
Additional reporting in the area of renewable energy is a dataset under the National Energy and Climate Progress Reports (NECPRs), which is reported every second year (starting in 2023) by EU Member States. The dataset provides information regarding Member States functioning system for guarantees of origin (GO), renewable energy surplus/deficits, biomass use and impacts, and renewable energy usage in buildings. The EEA collects and quality checks this data. The dataset links to data from Eurostat. This reporting obligation comes from the Governance Regulation 2018/1999, Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/2299 (Annex XVI).
Progress to targets for energy efficiency is a dataset under the National Energy and Climate Progress Reports (NECPRs), which is reported every second year (starting in 2023) by EU Member States. The dataset provides information regarding Member State's energy efficiency contributions and progress in achieving them. The EEA collects and quality checks this data. The dataset links to data from Eurostat regarding Primary Energy Consumption (PEC) and Final Energy Consumption (FEC) in the period of 2020-2030. This reporting obligation comes from the Governance Regulation 2018/1999, Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/2299 (Annex IV).
