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 by the end of August 2026. 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.

Monitoring strategy description
The Driver-Pressure-State-Impact-Response (DPSIR) approach considers human activities as an integral part of the ecosystem. Main drivers for changes in costal fish biodiversity are human pressures via eutrophication (mainly contribution from agriculture and rivers), aquaculture escapes, fishery and infrastructure interventions in the coastal zone (mainly for tourism purposes). As a pressure of these activities, specific fish indicator species were identified, while their abundance and biomass were used for assessment of impact. Responses include measures against habitat modifications and sustainable fisheries management.

Gaps and plans
During implementation phase, some issues are recognised as weak points: namely missing relevant data for determination of criteria D1C1 and D1C5. Established sampling plan with defined stations and frequencies probably won’t be sufficient to complete these issues. Thus, additional effort must be invested to find the most appropriate way to obtain relevant data and / or new methods to determine these criteria.

Programme description
Fish community: Fish biodiversity is assessed through the state of fish communities, since fish as top predators are crucial for supporting the structure of the community, the food-web and the marine ecosystem as a whole. Changes in the fish community are driven by climate but are also impacted by human pressures, such as eutrophication, introduction of non-indigenous species and fishing. The proposed indicators aim to discriminate change in the fish community in Croatian waters due to human pressure from those caused by natural variability (in time and space). Survey sites are present along the eastern Adriatic coast encompassing the open and coastal waters. Selected sites at coastal waters reflect areas under various anthropogenic pressures.
