Beach Litter count data collected across 10 beaches of the Belgian coast in 2023 and 2024 by volunteers of the citizen science association Proper Strand Lopers. One of the key indicators of abundance, composition and trends of litter in the marine environment is the amount on beaches. OSPAR monitors litter on 100m stretches at over 70 beaches in the North-East Atlantic following common monitoring guidelines. The monitoring records litter in 112 predefined litter items in 11 types: Plastic / polystyrene, Metal, Paper and cardboard, Wood, Sanitary waste, Cloth, Rubber, Glass, Pottery/ceramics, Medical waste and Faeces.

UNDER EMBARGO - This dataset is part of BE/2023 sampling campagn in SW Greenland fjords (Igaliku and Tunulliarfik) and includes measurements of pelagic community respiration to assess microbial metabolic activity across fjords with contrasting glacial influence and seasonal conditions. Pelagic community respiration rates were determined following Martínez-García et al. (2009): seawater samples (200 mL; n = 4 replicates) were incubated with INT (final concentration 0.8 mM). Control samples were fixed with formaldehyde (2% final concentration) prior to incubation. After incubation, samples were filtered (0.2 μm), and the reduced INT (formazan) retained on filters was extracted with 1-propanol. Formazan concentration was determined spectrophotometrically at 485 nm, subtracting non-metabolic absorbance from controls. INT reduction rates were calculated as μmol INTf L⁻¹ h⁻¹ and subsequently converted to O₂ consumption rates (μmol O₂ L⁻¹ h⁻¹) following Martínez-García et al. (2019).

The Royal Decree of 20 March 2026 establishing the marine spatial plan for the period 2026 to 2034 in the Belgian marine areas defines 1 cultural heritage (wrecks) zones: Protected shipwrecks (Art. 26§1). It replaces the 2020 Marine Spatial Plan. Please refer to the Belgian official gazette ("Moniteur belgeBelgisch Staatsblad") for official reference information.

Since August 2019, users of the RMI smartphone app are able to send an observation of the meteorological conditions at a certain place and a certain time. The observations provide information about the weather conditions and potentially severe weather to the other users and to RMI. The collection of citizen weather reports is a valuable complement to the information obtained with the classical instruments like stations, radar and satellite. The data can be exploited for nowcasting, warnings and model verification, and eventually in assimilation. A general introduction of the data and their characteristics can be found in Reyniers et al. (2023). A basic quality control is implemented on the received observations via a plausibility check. This plausibility check determines whether an observation is plausible, suspicious or false, by comparing it to the INCA-BE nowcasting system using a simple thresholding scheme. INCA-BE is RMI's operational nowcasting system described in Reyniers et al. (2021). There is no strict spatial extent since there is no restriction at the input side: users can send observations from all over the globe. The bulk of the observations are received from within Belgium. Note that the plausibility check is not available for reports from outside Belgium.

Summer and winter mean relative humidity given in %. The relative humidity fields are available for the future target year 2085, which corresponds to the middle of the 30-year period 2071-2100, and for mean and high impact scenarios corresponding respectively to the 50th and 5th percentiles of the change factors.

Real estate sales - Profile of the buyers corresponds to the dataset describing the profile of the buyers (natural persons) of real estate. This dataset is composed of seven classes. The first class shows, at the national level, for each cadastral nature and by price range the number of real estate property that was sold as well as the number of buyers broken down by age and gender categories. The second class includes this information at the level of the three regions. The following classes do the same at the level of provinces, arrondissements, municipalities, cadastral divisions and statistical sectors. The dataset can be freely downloaded as a zipped CSV.

The national wastewater-based epidemiological surveillance monitors public health parameters in several wastewater treatment plants across Belgium. The PMMoV virus is an indicator of human faecal contamination used to estimate the population load in wastewater samples. The results of this dataset consist of PMMoV concentrations over time as well as other data needed for the interpretations such as the flow rates of the treatment plants and the population covered.

UNDER EMBARGO - This dataset is part of BE/2023 sampling campagn in SW Greenland fjords (Igaliku and Tunulliarfik). Samples for DNA extraction were collected along fjord transects at several depths of the water column. The focus of the study was to determine the taxonomical composotion of bacterial community in two Arctic fjords.

Points Of Interest - Cult elements contains point elements relating to the cult, namely churchs (anglican, catholic, orthodox, protestant), mosques, synanogues, buddhist temples, chapels, abbeys, priories and other religious buildings or small monuments in Belgium.
