Anthropogenic impulsive sound dataset in support of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) Descriptor 11 (D11C01, 2018 Reporting)
type: Dataset
abstract: This dataset is part of the 2018 Belgian submission for the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) linked to descriptor 11, criterion 1. This dataset describes the impulsive noise generated during percussion pile emplacement for offshore wind farm construction and unexploded ordnance (UxO) explosions. Impulsive underwater sound (pressure) was measured during pile driving operations in Belgian waters, for different types of foundations (monopiles of different diameters, foundations of ducts with a smaller diameter) and hydraulic hammers with different energy powers. The results of measurements at Bligh Bank and Thornton Bank, with a resulting extrapolation of zero to peak noise level (Lz-p) at 750m and Sound Exposure Level (SEL) (no mitigation measures deployed), are presented (Norro et al., 2013).

Contaminants in sediment dataset in support of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) Descriptor 8 (D08C01, 2018 Reporting)
type: Dataset
abstract: This dataset is part of the 2018 Belgian submission for the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) linked to descriptor 8, criterion 1. This dataset contains the contaminant concentrations measured in sediments at 10 monitoring stations in the Belgian part of the North Sea between 2011 and 2015. 88 parameters are measured in the upper part of the sea bottom by a Van Veen grab sampler. The contaminants are analyzed on the fraction < 63 µm. PCBs (Polychlorinated biphenyls) and heavy metals are analyzed by the Instituut voor Landbouw-, Visserij- en Voedingsonderzoek (ILVO) and Sciensano. Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and organotin compounds are analysed by RBINS-OD Nature, PAHs and organotin based on an accredited method (ISO/IEC 17025).

data quality: The rainfall composite combines 2D products from the Wideumont, Jabbeke and Zaventem weather radars. Reflectivity values are converted into rainrates using the Marshall-Palmer relation. For each pixel, the maximum value of the three products is taken. The effective coverage of the composite is smaller than the bounding box. It is determined by the maximum ranges of the three radars, i.e. 250 km for Wideumont, 300 km for Jabbeke, and 250 km for Zaventem.

data quality: Hail detection module is an implementation of two hail detection algorithms: of Witt and of Waldvogel (Waldvogelet al., 1979). The module takes radar observations and temperature information and estimates probability of hail (POH, %), probability of severe hail (POSH, %) and maximum expected size of hail (MESH, mm). The implementation of the Waldvogel algorithm is based on the Holleman's equation (I. Holleman, 2001), which was verified for Belgium by Delobbe et al. (2003). The POH is derived in the algorithm from the presence of a substantial updraft detected above the freezing level (0º-isoterm). The implementation of the Witt algorithm is based on the weighted integration of the reflectivity values between the heights of 0º-isoterm and -20º-isotherm (Witt et al., 1998). This algorithm provides POSH and MESH estimates.
