Layer: Ship wakes disturbance of habitats (ID: 0)

Name: Ship wakes disturbance of habitats

Display Field: BenBroadHa

Type: Feature Layer

Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;font-size:12pt"><P><SPAN>This vector dataset represents the benthic broad habitat types in Europe Seas potentially affected by the ship wakes.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>When navigating, the propellers of ships generate a turbulent mixing of the water that can produce sediment re-suspension in soft bottoms of shallow areas. This can increase the turbidity in those areas, affecting the seafloor organisms (especially those that are directly dependent on light, such as aquatic plants). It may also contribute to an increase of the the eutrophication level of the ecosystem (since the turbid waters may become warmer, which may turn into a reduction of dissolved oxygen in water). Finally, turbidity can produce an increase in the inputs of contaminants and microbial pathogens, since those can become attached to the suspended solids.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The dataset has been prepared in the context of the development of the first European Maritime Transport Environmental Report (https://www.eea.europa.eu/publications/maritime-transport).</SPAN></P></DIV>
