Hydromorphological assessment and monitoring methodologies in coastal and transitional waters
This report summarises the collation of information from questionnaires sent to relevant member states in 2018 as part of the CIS ATG Work Programme, with information updates in 2020, primarily to determine the methods used by member states on Artificial/ Heavily Modified Water Body (A/HMWB) designation, Hydromorphological Status Classification and on preliminary Ecological Potential assessment approaches in Transitional and Coastal (TraC) waters.
The interpreted outputs facilitate an overview of the main hydromorphological reporting approaches across member states. With focus narrowing to hydromorphological classification and HMWB designation in the later request, case study examples further narrowed the focus to present classification approaches only;
