Marine Strategy Framework Directive - Review and analysis of EU Member States’ 2018 reports - Descriptor 11: Underwater Noise and Energy
Assessment (Art. 8), Good Environmental Status (Art. 9) and Targets (Art. 10)
EU Member States (MS) have reported under Article 17 of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) for updating Articles 8, 9 and 10 of the Directive, for the last 6-year reporting cycle (2012-2018). This report analyses the information on MSFD Descriptor 11 (Underwater Noise and Energy). Information has been retrieved from 14, 19 and 16 MS for Art.8, Art.9, and Art.10, respectively (out of the 22 EU MS with a sea border).
This analysis evaluates the consistency and comparability among MS and marine regions in the consideration of different elements and parameters concerning D11 and in the application of methodological standards for their assessment. The main aim is to highlight gaps and limitations in current assessments, identify items that need further work and provide recommendations for improvement in the next MSFD reporting cycle.
