Target description
DIN and DIP concentrations to be maintained or decreased
DIP and DIN to be maintained or decreased
Principle OneOutAllOut applied to maximum allowable concentrations from national legislation (Ord.161/2006) for each parameter (TP, NO3, NO2, NH4).
75 percentile of warm season chlorophyll a concentrations in water do not exceed the threshold values
At least 50% of Noctiluca scintillans biomass values do not exceed the threshold values: -cold season - 100mg/m3 -warm season - 350mg/m3
At least 50% of Noctiluca scintillans biomass values do not exceed the threshold values: -cold season - 60mg/m3 -warm season - 240mg/m3
At least 50% of Noctiluca scintillans biomass values do not exceed the threshold values: -cold season - 70mg/m3 -warm season - 240mg/m3
Percentile 90 of water transparency (warm season) should be higher than the threshold value
Percentile 90 of borttom oxygen saturation (warm season) should not be lower than the threshold value
Average biomass of opportunistic macroalgae expressed as ESGII (opportunistic/total biomass ratio percentage) does not exceed 40%.
