# Assessment of eutrophication status in European seas using HEAT+, May 2019

The dataset presents the results of classification of eutrophication status of the European seas using the HEAT+ tool. Eutrophication status is evaluated in five classes, where NPAhigh and NPAgood are recognised as ‘non-problem areas’ and PAmoderate, PApoor and PAbad are recognised as ‘problem areas’.

Besides the overall Eutrophication status (HEAT+) are the results shown for three aspects of eutrophication: 
C1) Nutrient Concentrations
C2) Direct Effects
C3) Indirect Effects 

This dataset underpins the findings and cartographic representations published in the report "Nutrient enrichment and eutrophication in Europe's seas" (EEA, 2019): https://www.eea.europa.eu/publications/nutrient-enrichment-and-eutrophication-in.https://sdi.eea.europa.eu/geonetwork/srv/api/records/7c66cfd5-4246-4b9d-86af-624950aa49d4
