Description [Targets] |
The determination of pollutant effects and prevailing trends in contaminants concentrations in the water column, sediments and ecosystems |
To achieve GES, hazardous substances should be kept at low levels and ultimately reach background values or zero. Therefore, the concentrations and impacts of hazardous substances are evaluated according to threshold values (limit reference points) suggested. |
