Assessment of the river habitat quality within European Water Framework Directive : application to different catchments in Czechia

Auteur :
MATOUŠKOVÁ, M.

Description :
The paper presents the method of ecomorphological assessment of river habitat quality EcoRivHab, based on field mapping with possible usage of distance data. Overall ecohydrological state is evaluated by five degrees (ES I-V), characterizing the state of the watercourse in the context of the EC Water Framework Directive. The goal of this research was to assess the ecohydromorphological state of selected catchments in Czechia, representing varied relief types, and at the same, representing landscape with differing degrees of anthropogenic impact. - (EN)
