Article 2, clause 7 of the WFD defines coastal waterbodies as '...a surface water on the landward side of a line, every point of which is at a distance of one nautical mile on the seaward side from the nearest point of the baseline from which the breadth of territorial waters is measured, extending where appropriate up to the outer limit of transitional waters'. Since waterbodies are attributed with a unique identifier 'EA_WB_ID' this dataset can be linked directly to other WFD data sources such as physical characteristics, risk, classification and proposed objectives. This dataset covers the layer for Cycle 1 of the Water framework Directive (2008 - 2013). The equivalent layer for Cycle 2 is covered under WFD Coastal Waterbodies Cycle 2.

Mae Cyrff Dŵr Arfordirol y Gyfarwyddeb Fframwaith Dŵr (WFD) yn set ddata ofodol sy'n crynhoi priodoleddau sydd wedi'u casglu fel y diffiniwyd ar gyfer gweithredu'r Gyfarwyddeb Fframwaith Dŵr (WFD). Mae Cylch 1af Cyrff Dŵr Arfordirol WFD yn diffinio Cyrff Dŵr Arfordirol ar gyfer gweithredu'r Gyfarwyddeb Fframwaith Dŵr (WFD). Mae Erthygl 2, cymal 7 y WFD yn diffinio cyrff dŵr arfordirol fel 'dŵr wyneb ar ochr y tir o linell sydd â phob pwynt ar bellter o un filltir fôr ar ochr y môr o'r pwynt agosaf ar y llinell sylfaen o ble mae maint y dyfroedd tiriogaethol yn cael ei fesur, gan ymestyn, pan fo hynny'n briodol, hyd at ffin allanol y dyfroedd trawsnewidiol'. Diffiniwyd dyfroedd arfordirol fel dyfroedd tiriogaethol 1 filltir forol o'r Penllanw Cymedrig a'r arfordir a gymerwyd yn uniongyrchol or OS 1: 50K MeridianTM 2. Diffiniwyd y newid rhwng dyfroedd arfordirol ac aberol fel cyrff dŵr trosiannol. Gan fod cyrff dŵr yn cael eu priodoli gyda dynodwr unigryw (EA_WB_ID) gellir cysylltu'r set ddata hon yn uniongyrchol â ffynonellau data eraill y Gyfarwyddeb Fframwaith Dŵr megis nodweddion ffisegol, risg, dosbarthiad a'r amcanion arfaethedig.
