This dataset represents the underlying seawater data on core indicator Radioactive substances: Cesium-137 in-fish-and-surface-seawater. The core indicator evaluates the state of the environment using the concentration of the radioactive isotope cesium-137 (137Cs) in herring, in flatfish and in surface waters. Quantitative thresholds are used to evaluate if core indicators Achieve or Fail Good status or if the status is Not assessed. Good status is achieved when concentrations reach levels measured before the Chernobyl accident in 1986 when the biota of the Baltic Sea received the most significant contribution to their level of artificial radionuclides, predominantly in the form of 137Cs. This dataset displays the result of the indicator in HELCOM Assessment Scale 2 (Division of the Baltic Sea into 17 sub-basins). Attribute information: "KEY" = MORS Database unique sample identifier "COUNTRY" = Code for country of observation "YEAR" = Year of observation "STATION" = Unique text that identifies the station "TDEPTH" = Bottom depth at sampling site (m) "SDEPTH" = Sampling depth (m) "ASSESSMENT" = Name of the HELCOM scale 2 assessment unit (subbasin) "NUCLIDE" = Nuclide measured "VALUE_Bq_m" = Value of measurement in Bq/m3
