Macroalgae (seaweeds)

This dataset stems from the Joint Research Centre (JRC) Biomass Mandate (https://knowledge4policy.ec.europa.eu/projects-activities/jrc-biomass-mandate_en) and it is available for viewing and download on EMODnet - Human Activities web portal (www.emodnet-humanactivities.eu) and on the platform from the European Commission's Knowledge Centre for Bioeconomy (https://knowledge4policy.ec.europa.eu/visualisation/bioeconomy-different-countries_en#algae_prod_plants). Its aim is to build a reliable database to characterize the algae sector and to support informed European policies on Blue Growth and Bioeconomy. More detailed information on the Status of the Algae Production Industry in Europe can be found in a JRC-led study published in Frontiers in Marine Science (https://publications.jrc.ec.europa.eu/repository/handle/JRC122250). Information on the location (geographic coordinates) of the production facilities, group of produced organism (macroalgae, microalgae and spirulina), production method (Fermenters, Harvesting , Photobioreactors, Open ponds, Semi Open ponds, land-based or at sea Aquaculture, Integrated multi-trophic or not) and species (see dataset) have been collected in the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Faroe Islands, France, Germany, Greece, Greenland, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the UK. In November 2021, the JRC has updated the database with the latest information on the production units operational at the time.

本数据集源自欧洲联合研究中心（Joint Research Centre, JRC）的生物质指令（https://knowledge4policy.ec.europa.eu/projects-activities/jrc-biomass-mandate_en），并可于EMODnet - 人类活动网络门户（www.emodnet-humanactivities.eu）以及欧洲委员会生物经济知识中心平台（https://knowledge4policy.ec.europa.eu/visualisation/bioeconomy-different-countries_en#algae_prod_plants）进行查阅与下载。其宗旨在于构建一个可靠的数据库，以描述藻类产业并支撑欧洲关于蓝色增长和生物经济的明智政策制定。关于欧洲藻类生产产业现状的更详细信息，可在由JRC主持发表在《海洋科学前沿》（Frontiers in Marine Science）的研究中找到（https://publications.jrc.ec.europa.eu/repository/handle/JRC122250）。收集了以下国家生产设施的位置（地理坐标）、生产生物群（大型藻类、微型藻类和螺旋藻）、生产方式（发酵罐、收割、光生物反应器、开放式池塘、半开放式池塘、陆地或海洋水产养殖、综合多营养类养殖或非综合养殖）以及物种（见数据集）等信息：奥地利、比利时、保加利亚、克罗地亚、捷克共和国、丹麦、爱沙尼亚、法罗群岛、法国、德国、希腊、格陵兰、匈牙利、冰岛、爱尔兰、意大利、拉脱维亚、荷兰、挪威、葡萄牙、西班牙、瑞典、瑞士和英国。2021年11月，JRC已更新数据库，包含当时运营的生产单位最新信息。
