From an ecological point of view, available light is one of the primary physical parameters influencing and structuring the biological communities in the marine environment, as it is the driving force behind the primary production by providing the energy for the photosynthesis - energy that ultimately is transferred to other organisms not capable of photosynthesis. The depth of the photic zone is traditionally defined, for benthic plants, as the depth where 1% of the surface irradiance (as measured just below the water surface) is available for photosynthesis. Only two intervals based on light regime were used in the dataset, because they reflect the significant ecological difference between the shallow water depth with the presence of submerged aquatic vegetation, and the deeper waters where fauna (and bacteria) dominate diversity of species, abundance, and biomass. The intervals are: I. The photic zone (where at least 1% of the available light touches the seabed). II.

(Data source: DHI Water - Environment - Health and ICES, produced by BSR INTERREG IIIB project BALANCE) For the purpose of mapping the photic zone in the Kattegat and Baltic Sea water transparency has been calculated utilizing Secchi disc depth. The data have been collected at the ICES homepage, http://www.ices.dk/Ocean/project/secchi/ (Aarup 2002). The data covers measurements of Secchi disc depth (SD) from the period 1903 to 1998. However, for this study only data from 1980-1998 was used. Also, only data between March to October have been included to account for the productive period providing approximately 20.000 records. In situations where frequent data are available at the same station, the data have been averaged per station resulting in approximately 2800 records covering most of the Baltic Sea area and Kattegat. These 2800 records have been spatially interpolated and extrapolated to cover the Baltic Sea. With this approach the station locations is weighted equally with the number of measurements. Despite the rich amount of data, the measurements of SD are not evenly distributed and areas in the Baltic Proper, Gulf of Riga and southern Baltic are not well covered.
