Indicator Specification
Archived
Status of marine fish stocks The indicator assesses both the status of the commercial fish stocks in Europe´s regional seas and the level of pressure exerted by fisheries on those stocks against their sustainable reference levels. It also provides an overview of the availability of information to provide such analysis. To that end it reports on: The availability of information for assessing the status of the  level of exploitation and the reproductive capacity. This is  reflected by the proportion of the total landings (as a proxy of catch) from commercial fisheries per regional sea covered by quantitative stock assessments (i.e. providing information on the 2 indicators fishing mortality and spawning stock biomass and their sustainable reference levels). The status of the assessed marine fish and shellfish stocks based on the current level of exploitation and the reproductive capacity (i.e. the status of  fishing mortality and spawning stock biomass compared to their sustainable reference levels)
Indicator Specification Aquaculture: effluent water quality from finfish farms Annual trend in release of nutrients into the marine environment as a result of aquaculture practices.
