Third UK Habitats Directive report (2013) - Habitat details (Country level plus offshore)

This dataset comprises the Country specific source data used to compile the individual Habitats reports that formed a major part of the 3rd UK Habitats Directive Report for 2013. Every six years, all EU Member States are required (under Article 17 of the Directive) to report on the implementation of the EU Habitats Directive. The 3rd UK Habitats Directive Report was submitted to the European Commission in 2013. The Report considered the conservation status of all terrestrial and marine habitats listed under Annex I of the Directive that were present within the UK during the reporting period (2007-2012). This included: *69 terrestrial habitats within the UK Atlantic region; *8 marine habitats within the UK Marine Atlantic region; The report submitted by the UK was an amalgamation of data from each of the four UK Countries and the offshore environment (> 12 nautical miles from the coast). This dataset presents the source data provided from the above five sources. It contains a range of parameters for each habitat as described in the UK Approach Document. http://jncc.defra.gov.uk/pdf/A17_2013_UKApproach.pdf本数据集收录了用于编制各欧盟成员国生境报告的国别原始数据，此类报告为2013年第三届英国《欧盟生境指令》（EU Habitats Directive）报告的核心组成部分。根据该指令第17条规定，所有欧盟成员国需每六年提交一次关于欧盟《生境指令》执行情况的报告。第三届英国《欧盟生境指令》报告已于2013年提交至欧盟委员会。 本次报告评估了报告期（2007-2012年）内英国境内所有列入指令附件一的陆地与海洋生境的保护现状，具体涵盖： * 英国大西洋区域内的69种陆地生境； * 英国海洋大西洋区域内的8种海洋生境； 英国提交的本次报告整合了英国四个构成国及离岸海域（距海岸12海里以上区域）的相关数据。本数据集即收录自上述五个来源的原始数据，包含英国《实施方法文件》（UK Approach Document）中规定的各生境相关多项参数。 http://jncc.defra.gov.uk/pdf/A17_2013_UKApproach.pdf
