022 UK EEZ sedimentary organic carbon vulnerability ranking estimates - Map Package

Outlines Layer Package
Description: Country outlines for England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland, and Wales. A UK shapefile and the UK EEZ shapefile
is also provided.

Type: Polygon
Projected Coordinate System: British_National_Grid
Projection: Transverse_Mercator

Constants Layer Package
Description: Constants used within the carbon vulnerability ranking calculation. Data sources are as follows:
Average SAR (2009 - 2017) - OSPAR (https://odims.ospar.org/en/maps/map-bottom-fishing-i_-surface-subsurface...)
Organic Carbon (OC) Content - Smeaton et al 2021
Sediment Type - Smeaton et al 2021
Potential Exposure Ratio - Calculated. See: Black et al 2022 for detail.
Sediment Lability Ratio - Smeaton et al 2022
Cio - Calculated. See: Black et al 2022 for detail.
Cio Linear - Calculated. See: Black et al 2022 for detail.

Type: Raster
Cell Size (X, Y): 0.056,0.056
Units: km^2

CVR Calculation Layers Layer Package
Description: The layers used for the carbon vulnerability ranking calculation sorted by fishing gear type. For each gear type the
fishing pressure (SAR), swept volume ratio (SVR), sediment lability loss (Lai), Carbon estimated to be lost (Cout), Carbon estimated to be lost
fuzzified (Cout Linear), and carbon vulnerability ranking (CVR) is provided. For detail on this calculation see Black et al 2022.

Type: Raster
Cell Size (X, Y): 0.056,0.056
Units: km^2

CVR by gear type/country Layer Package
Description: The carbon vulnerability ranking estimate split up into territorial water boundaries. The original jerk classifications for each class (e.g. Otter CVR: Very low, low, medium, high,
and very high jerk values) have been applied when classifying these country splits. This is to ensure that the spatial data classifications for each gear type are comparable with each other.

NOTE: OTTER TRAWLING ISLE OF MAN (IOM) HAS NO RECORDS FOR VERY LOW. BEAM TRAWLING ISLE OF MAN (IOM) HAS NO RECORDS FOR VERY LOW. BEAM TRAWLING NORTHERN IRELAND (NIRE) HAS NO RECORDS FOR VERY LOW OR LOW.

Type: Raster
Cell Size (X, Y): 0.056,0.056
Units: km^2
