Presentation Transcript

  1. Northern GIG - Organisation • Sweden (Swedish EPA coordinator), Finland, Norway, + UK, Ireland joined from 2004 • Work started in 2002, funded by EPAs and supported by Nordic Council of Ministers • Collaboration between national EPAs and national research institutes (SLU Sweden, SYKE Finland, NIVA and NINA Norway, CEH UK) • Only rivers and lakes (coastal waters will IC with North- East Atlantic region or Baltic region)

  2. Northern GIG – IC Options • Option 1 not realistic since the member states do not have the same classification system • Option 2 will be attempted for IC, using a combination of common metrics and national metrics. Test intercalibration in autumn 2004 for three lake types and three river types and some common metrics, and range of sites from high to poor/bad status. • Option 3 can also be used if the common metric approach fails.
