The dataset contains time series of nutrients, organic matter, hazardous substances and other chemicals in rivers, lakes, groundwater, transitional, coastal and marine waters. A list of spatial object identifiers with selected attributes, reported through WFD and WISE Spatial data reporting, is added to dataset as spatial reference. The data has been compiled and processed by EEA. Please refer to the metadata for additional information. The dataset is split into two parts: Part 1: DisaggregatedData; Part 2: AggregatedData, AggregatedDataByWaterBody, SpatialObject_DerivedData
