Changes in water quality variables during the last two decades: -
Located in Data and maps › Maps and graphs
Percentage of natural, heavily modified, artificial and unknown status for river, lake, transitional and coastal water bodies: The graphs illustrate the designation of heavily and artificial water bodies

Distribution of chemical status of groundwater, rivers, lakes, transitional and coastal waters.: Number of Member States contributing to the dataset: Groundwater (26); Rivers (25); Lakes (22); Transitional (15) and Coastal (20). Percentages shown for rivers, lakes, transitional and coastal are by water body count. Groundwater percentages, however, are expressed by area. The total number of water bodies is shown in parenthesis. Data from Sweden are excluded from surface water data illustrated in the figure. This is because Sweden contributed a disproportionately large amount of data and, classified all its surface waters as poor status since levels of mercury found within biota in both fresh and coastal waters exceed quality standards.

Proportion of classified groundwater bodies in different River Basin Districts in poor chemical status: The figure shows percentage of the total area of classified water bodies. See the indicator specification for more details

Proportion of classified water bodies in different RBDs affected by pollution pressures, for rivers and lakes (left panel) and for coastal and transitional waters (right panel): The percentage is based on total number of classified water bodies. See the indicator specification for more details.

Proportion of classified surface water bodies in different RBDs holding less than good ecological status or potential, for rivers and lakes (left panel) and for coastal and transitional waters (right panel): The figure shows percentage of the total number of classified water bodies. See the indicator specification for more details.

Ecological status or potential of classified river water bodies in different Member States (a), and proportion of river water bodies affected by diffuse pollution and hydromorphology pressures (b): The graphs illustrate the ecological status of river water bodies (a) and percentage of river water bodies affected by diffuse pollution and hydromorphology pressures
Located in Data and maps › Maps and graphs
Ecological status or potential of lake water bodies in different Member States (a), and proportion of lake water bodies affected by diffuse pollution and hydromorphology pressures (b): The graphs illustrate the ecological status of lake water bodies (a) and percentage of lake water bodies affected by diffuse pollution and hydromorphology pressures
