Progress with implementation of EUROWATERNET - Rivers Steve Nixon ETC/Water
Austria Bosnia & Herzegovina Bulgaria Denmark Estonia Finland France FYROM Germany Greece Hungary Ireland Latvia Lithuania Netherlands Norway Poland Slovak Republic Slovenia Spain Sweden United Kingdom 2001 Update - 22 countries updated
2001 Update 2 countries not updated • Czech Republic • Italy • 24 countries participating in EUROWATERNET Basic river network
Albania Belgium Iceland Luxembourg Portugal Romania “New” Mediterranean EEA countries Turkey Cyprus - no rivers Malta - no rivers Countries that have not yet implemented EUROWATERNET-rivers
Number of updated representative plus reference river stations (1)
Number of updated representative plus reference river stations (2)

% of target for representative plus reference river stations (2) % of target
Number of representative/reference EUROWATERNET stations in countries that have not YET updated their data
Numbers of different types of river monitoring stations in WATERBASE
Size distribution of rivers in WATERBASE (2764 stations with upstream catchment area)
Number of stations with geographic co-ordinates, discharge and altitude data in WATERBASE (3329 stations in total)
Countries providing catchment population density and % land use data
Austria Belgium Bosnia Bulgaria Finland FYROM Greece Ireland Italy Lithuania Netherlands (pop. density) Norway (land use) Portugal Romania Spain Sweden (pop. density) Countries not YET providing catchment population density and % land use data
Disaggregated data submitted • Austria • France • FYROM • Slovenia • Spain • Sweden • UK
EUROWATERNET - RiverImpact network • Nomination of “Impact” stations as well as representative and reference • Priority Substances (selected pesticides for groundwater) • List I/II substances (Dangerous Substances Directive) • Any other hazardous substances monitored • Disaggregated data • Station physical characteristic and proxy pressure information
Trends in orthophosphate and nitrate concentrations in rivers mg N/l µg P/l
Trends in total phosphorus concentrations in EU countries µg P/l
Trends in orthophosphate concentrations in different sized rivers in EU countries µg P/l
Concentration of nitrate in different sized rivers in relation to agricultural land use in upstream catchment % agricultural land use mg N/l
Concluding comments - rivers EWN • Progress being made with “Basic” network in terms of countries and numbers and types of station, and determinands • Biggest gap still gaps in proxy pressure data - collaboration with JRC-IES • First steps in “Impact” network • Geographical coverage will increase to include new EEA Mediterranean countries and NIS • Disaggregated data for re-assessment of statistical power • More experience being gained for step-by-step development of fully “Representative” EWN
