As part of EEA's ongoing security and identity management improvements, we are currently migrating the system to Entra ID authentication.
We kindly ask all users to start using Entra ID credentials when logging in to the system. 
Please note that LDAP authentication will be phased out and disabled in the upcoming months.
We encourage you to verify that you can successfully access the system and that your account and permissions function as expected after Entra ID login.
Should you encounter any issues or require assistance during this transition, please contact Laszlo Cseh at laszlo.cseh@eaudeweb.ro 
Thank you for your cooperation and support.

GES description
The marine environment of Cyprus is considered to be in good environmental status by the year 2020 if non-indigenous species (NIS) introduced by human activities are at levels that do not adversely alter the ecosystem. Due to the high uncertainty as to the impacts of widespread invasive alien species, and the highly invasive nature of the better studied species, the environmental status of Cyprus waters with regards to Descriptor 2 is determined at the level of the descriptor to be 0.5, i.e., Cyprus waters are not in GES with respect to Descriptor 2.
