Environmental Performance Indicators: Marine environment potential indicators
for physical and chemical processes, and human uses and values
This report provides technical detail for some of the indicators for the marine
environment. The marine environment encompasses three of the original
strands of the EPI programme: coasts and estuaries, marine biodiversity
and fisheries. These strands were merged to promote an ecosystem approach
to developing indicators for the marine environment. However, the technical
reports were commissioned before the merge was implemented. Consequently,
the technical details of the indicators are provided in documents that
reflect the original strand divisions. The final discussion document
will report the indicators for the marine environment as an integrated
set.
