This indicator shows the concentration of the following pollutants in coastal seawater and sediments. • Coastal seawaters: ammonium nitrogen (NH4),
dissolved oxygen (O2), oil hydrocarbons (OH), phenols, synthetic surface‐active compounds (SSAC), chlorinated pesticides (CP), faecal coliform, and heavy metals (Cd, Co, Cu, Cr, Fe, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn)
• Sediments: chlorinated pesticides, oil hydrocarbons and heavy metals.

F2: Fertilizer consumption /F2: Внесение минеральных и органических удобрений
Suggestion to delete the note at the end of the F2-table or to use different words for the description of calculating fertilizer consumption. This would allow to use two definitions for the volume of fertilizer: 1. Preferred option: use the reporting
data of fertilizer in the soil; 1. For countries that do not have
accounting data of fertilizer in the soil: by calculation (production + imports - exports - unused fertilizer).
Предлагаем также исключить примечание после таблицы F-2 в части использования формулы для расчета потребления удобрений либо изложить его в другой редакции, позволяющей использовать два варианта определения объемов внесения удобрений: 1. Предпочтительный вариант: использование
отчетных данных о внесении удобрений в почву;
1. Для стран, не имеющих отчетных данных о
внесении удобрений в почву: расчетным путем (производство + импорт – экспорт – неиспользованные удобрения).
