{"projectrec":{"ProID":3091,"StandardTitle":"Relationships between ecological and chemical status of surface waters","OrigTitle":"Relaties tussen de ecologische en chemische toestand van oppervlaktewater","Acronym":"REBECCA","AbstractEnglish":"The objective of REBECCA is to provide underpinning for one of the key scientific principles on which the Water Framework Directive (WFD) is based, i.e. that relationships between the biological state and physical and chemical properties of surface waters are sufficiently well understood to enable the management of catchments and rivers to achieve ecological objectives. Historically, there has been great success in maintaining and improving the quality of surface waters by developing and understanding of the links between anthropogenic pressures (e.g. water abstraction, agriculture, and effluent discharges) and the chemical status of waters, although there remain many challenges in reliably designing and implementing the necessary programmes of measures. Our present understanding of the link between chemical properties and ecological state, while good in some instances, is generally not adequate to support management intervention against ecological objectives.","AbstractOtherLang":"De doelstelling van het project REBECCA is het onderbouwen van wetenschappelijke uitgangspunten waarop de kaderrichtlijn water zich baseerd, namelijk dat het verband tussen de biologische, fysische en chemische toestand van het oppervlaktewater wel bekend zijn zodat het beheer van bekkens en rivieren er op gericht kan zijn om de ecologische kwaliteitsdoelstellingen te behalen. Tot nog toe is er reeds veel succes geboekt in het behouden en verbeteren van de oppervlaktewaterkwaliteit door het beter begrijpen van de relatie tussen antropogene invloeden (zoals waterontrekking, landbouw en effluent lozingen) en de chemische kwaliteit van het water. Desondanks zijn er nog vele uitdagingen in de ontwikkeling en implementering van meetprogrammas. Onze huidige kennis over de relatie tussen de chemische kwaliteit en de ecologische status is over het algemeen onvoldoende om beheersmaatregelen voor het bereiken van ecologische kwaliteitsdoelstellingen te ondersteunen.","DateLastModified":{"date":"2024-05-06 10:25:46.257000","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+00:00"},"ParentProID":null,"BeginYear":2003,"EndYear":2006,"BMonth":12,"EMonth":11,"BeginMonth":"December","EndMonth":"November","OrigTitleLangCode":"nl","OrigTitleLangID":41,"OrigTitleLangNL":"Nederlands","OrigTitleLang":"Dutch","OtherAbstractLangCode":"nl","OtherAbstractLangID":41,"OtherAbstractLang":"Dutch","OtherAbstractLangNL":"Nederlands","Progress":"Completed","ProgressNL":"Afgelopen","PublicFlag":1,"CheckedFlag":0,"ND":"2009-08-17","UD":"2009-08-17","DMPFlag":0,"Budget":null,"BudgetCurrency":"EUR"},"parent":null,"persons":null,"projects":null,"events":null,"datasets":null,"institutes":[{"instituterec":{"Acronym":"ECOBE","ProPartID":10913,"PublicFlag":1,"OrigNameLangCode":"en","OrigNameLangID":15,"FullOrigName":"University of Antwerp; Faculty of Sciences; Department of Biology; Ecosystem Management Research Group","Line1":"Universiteitsplein 1","Line2":"2610 Wilrijk","Line3":null,"Line4":null,"InsID":39,"FullStandardName":"Universiteit Antwerpen; Faculteit Wetenschappen; Departement Biologie; Onderzoeksgroep Ecosysteembeheer","Role":"Partner","RoleID":17,"EncAddress":"Universiteitsplein 1, 2610 Wilrijk, Belgium"},"parent":null,"institutes":null,"references":null,"conferences":null,"datasets":null,"persons":[{"Surname":"Meire","Firstname":"Patrick","Initials":"P.","LeaderFlag":0,"PersID":25,"Role":null,"RoleID":null,"PastInstitute":1,"BeginDay":null,"BeginMonth":null,"BeginYear":null,"EndDay":null,"EndMonth":null,"EndYear":null}],"pastpers":null,"subpers":null,"projects":null,"urls":null,"pictures":null,"published":null,"affrefs":null,"collections":null,"thesterms":null,"taxterms":null,"geoterms":null,"thestermsFRIS":null,"nXtins":null,"previns":null,"spcols":null,"resmessage":"no id specified","complete":0,"participantrec":null,"peerrevs":null,"urlmaps":null}],"refs":null,"urls":null,"thesterms":[{"ThesaurusTerm":"Aquatic ecology","ThestID":506,"ThesTypID":1,"ThesType":"ASFA Thesaurus List","OrigThesTerm":"Aquatic ecology","DutchTerm":"Aquatische ecoloige","Code":"c_2fb3c2b5"},{"ThesaurusTerm":"Contamination","ThestID":84039,"ThesTypID":2,"ThesType":"CSA Technology Research Database Master Thesaurus","OrigThesTerm":"Contamination","DutchTerm":null,"Code":null},{"ThesaurusTerm":"Estuaries","ThestID":2895,"ThesTypID":1,"ThesType":"ASFA Thesaurus List","OrigThesTerm":"Estuaries","DutchTerm":"Estuaria","Code":"c_2673"},{"ThesaurusTerm":"Sediments","ThestID":7403,"ThesTypID":1,"ThesType":"ASFA Thesaurus List","OrigThesTerm":"Sediments","DutchTerm":"Sedimenten","Code":null},{"ThesaurusTerm":"Water quality","ThestID":96086,"ThesTypID":3,"ThesType":"Transportation Research Thesaurus","OrigThesTerm":"Water quality","DutchTerm":"Waterkwaliteit","Code":"Jfaw"}],"taxterms":null,"geoterms":null,"funderids":null,"othtermsFRIS":[{"OtherTerm":"Priority substances","DutchTerm":null,"OthtID":18293},{"OtherTerm":"Water framework directive","DutchTerm":null,"OthtID":9180}],"pictures":[],"spcols":null,"resmessage":"","complete":1}
