Presentation Transcript

  1. Intercalibration in transitional waters (TW) Phase 2:Milestone 4 Reports (M4R) Presented by Nikolaos ZampoukasJoint Research CentreInstitute for Environment and Sustainability

  2. Contents of the presentation • Fact sheets for each important topic in the intercalibration process: • Responsibilities • Participation • Availability and status of national methods • Feasibility (incl. typology, pressures & assessment concepts) • Dataset collection • IC procedure progress (choice of option) • Common metrics development • Worries emerging from reports and conclusions

  3. Biological Quality Elements (BQEs) for TW • Phytoplankton • Angiosperms • Macroalgae • Benthic invertebrate fauna • Fish

  4. Is IC feasible in the Stetting Lagoon (Baltic Sea) ? DE: Natural CW due to non significant influence of fresh water Currently in poor status. According to DE: IC not meaningful with the Polish WB as they are designated in different water categories PL: HMTW Ecological status not known

  5. Conclusions • According to the guidance document no 14 there should already be preliminary IC results by now. • For many BQEs/GIGs there are still major gaps in methods and data! However for most BQEs/GIGs there is hope for results by October 2011 (new extended deadline)

  6. Thank you for your time and attention
