Eutrophication programme

Provides an up-to-date picture of the eutrophication sources

The Eutrophication Programme is intended to provide data on which to base action to combat eutrophication of our aquatic systems. It should provide an up-to-date picture of the source and size of eutrophication sources and their development over time. A key element is to provide material for monitoring achievement of the environmental objectives and international commitments. The programme should also analyse and assess the effectiveness of measures taken in various sectors of society.
