Translation of "Données océanographiques de niveau 0 " (French → English) :

This means that everyone can have a say on standards that will harmonize the EU-wide approach to data about natural risk zones, atmospheric conditions, meteorological geographical features, oceanographic geographical features, sea regions, habitats and biotopes, species distribution, and energy and mineral resources.

1. Member States shall carry out research surveys at sea to evaluate the abundance and distribution of stocks, independently of the data provided by commercial fisheries, and to assess the impact of the fishing activity on the environment.

4. Member States shall ensure that the primary data collected under the research surveys at sea are transmitted to international scientific organisations and appropriate scientific bodies within regional fisheries management organisations in accordance with the international obligations of the Community and the Member States.

The GMES Space Component consists of space observation infrastructure addressing service data needs with missions observing land, atmospheric and oceanographic parameters.

Eligible expenditure shall be related to data collection activities (collection of data on the sampling sites, at-sea-monitoring of commercial and recreational fisheries, research surveys at sea), data management activities (database and website development, storage, quality control and validation, processing, etc.) and data use activities (production of data and their uses to support scientific analysis, biological parameter estimates, and preparation of sets of data for stock assessment, bio-economic modelling and corresponding scientific analysis).

the development of the Indicator should fully respect the responsibility of Member States for the organisation of their education systems and should not impose undue administrative or financial burdens on the organisation and institutions concerned; the method for data-gathering should take account of previous work in the field at international, Union and Member State level, and be devised and implemented in a cost-effective manner; the European Indicator of Language Competence shall be put in place as soon as possible, in accordance with the following terms of reference: data should be gathered on competences in first and second foreign languages: via a common suite of tests administered to a representative sample of the target populatio ...[+++]n in each Member State; from a representative sample of pupils in education and training at the end of ISCED level 2; where a second foreign language is not taught before the end of ISCED 2, Member States may, in the first round of data-gathering, choose to gather data for the second foreign language from pupils at the level of ISCED 3; for those languages for which there exists a suitable representative sample of learners in a given Member State; test scores should be based on the scales of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages ; because respect for linguistic diversity is a core value of the European Union, the Indicator should be based upon data concerning the knowledge of all the official languages of the European Union taught as foreign languages in the Union; but for practical reasons it would be advisable, in the first round of data-gathering, for tests to be made available in those official languages of the European Union that are most widely taught in the Member States, to the extent that they provide a sufficiently large sample of testees ; Member States shall themselves determine which of those official languages are to be tested; the Indicator should assess competence in the four productive a ...
