The QualityHSWater table contains aggregated data on hazardous substances in seawater, measured at Eurowaternet transitional, coastal or marine water monitoring stations. Each station has been assigned a unique Waterbase identifier (WaterbaseID) which can be used to link the Quality data with their respective Stations and Pressure data.
