	abstract = {<p>The present Standard Data-Entry Form (SDF) is conceived as an  operational tool made available to the relevant national authorities for  the implementation of this provision. It is designed to cover the  fields of information detailed in the Appendix to the Criteria, and the  specific criteria for the assessment of the importance of the site for  habitats and species (Art. 4, 5 and 6 of the Criteria). From a technical  point of view, this FSD is an adaptation to the specificity of the  Mediterranean of the SDFs developed within the NATURA 2000 and EMERALD  networks of sites, in the process of being established within the  European Union (Council Directives 79/409/EEC and 92/43/EEC) and the  Council of Europe (Resolution No. 3 (1996) of the Standing Committee of  the Bern Convention) respectively. This is made with the main objective  of ensuring the fullest compatibility possible and thus facilitate the  flow of data and information with the database systems established under  those initiatives.In conformity with the general objectives of the  inventories, the present Form is conceived with the main objectives of  :- assisting decision making concerning the management and, where  appropriate, the protection of the described sites;- providing a tool  for the long-term monitoring of the sites.The form is being designed  with a view to paper records and computerised entry and transfer of  data.</p>},
