ETC/WTR under contract to the EEA Status of Groundwater in Europe 03.04.2000

Status of GW in Europe about the EEA ETCs under contract to the EEA Report: GW quality and quantity in Europe Eurowaternet (EWN) Groundwater

The EEA mission “The EEA aims to support sustainable development and to help achieve significant and measurable improvement in Europe’s environment through the provision of timely, targeted, relevant and reliable information to the policy making agents and the public”

The DPSIR Framework Drivers Responses Pressures Impact State e.g. Clean production, Public transport, Regulations, Taxes Information etc. e.g. Industry & Transport Pressures Impact e.g. Ill health, Biodiversity loss, Economic damage e.g. Polluting emissions State e.g. Air, Water, Soil quality The role of the EEA is: To provide information on the DPSIR elements and their interconnections, and on the effectiveness of responses

Key clients EU institutions National environmental authorities European Commission Other institutions and bodies National environmental authorities International organisations Business community General public

EEA - Topic Centres ETC Water ETC Terrestrial Environment ETC Air and Climate Change ETC Nature Protection and Biodiversity ETC Waste and Material Flows

ETC on Water Led by WRc (UK) Federal Environment Agency - Working Group on Water (AT) CEDEX - Hydrographic Institute (ES) Centre for New Technology, Energy and Environment, ENEA (IT) National Centre for Marine Research (GR) Institute of Meteorology and Water Management (PL) International Office for Water (IOW) with IFREMER (FR) Environmental Research Institute - NERI (DK) Institute for Water Research NIVA (NO) Vituki Consult (HU)

Groundwater quality and quantity in Europe Environmental Assessment Report main objectives: pan European report based an measured data main emphasis on nitrate and pesticides; furthermore chloride, el. cond., alkalinity and pH over exploitation, saltwater intrusion, endangered wetlands procedure based on DPSIR approach questionnaires to 44 European countries response from 37 countries data collection in 1996/97; published in 1999

Pesticides monitored in GW

GW-overexploitation and saltwater intrusion

Further parameters

Objectives of Eurowaternet Groundwater objective, reliable and comparable information at the European level a survey of important groundwater bodies in the EEA area description of the status of groundwater quantity and quality in the EEA area information about trends in groundwater quantity and quality status long-term assessment about the impacts of measures basis for reports

Eurowaternet - Groundwater Collected Information - Update 2001 General characterisation - General Info, Hydrology, (Hydro-)Geology, Pressures, GIS-Map Network design - types of sampling sites, frequency Groundwater quality - aggregated data on nitrogen compounds (NO3, NO2, NH4), dissolved oxygen pesticides in groundwater

Eurowaternet - groundwater

Eurowaternet - groundwater / NO3

Eurowaternet - groundwater

Outlook EWN-GW based on best available data is currently the most adequate information source at the European scale Currently Update 2001, environmental signals report 2002, Kiev-report 2003 Revision of EWN - guidelines (slight adaptations with regard to WFD) .
