Process
Intercalibratie fase 1 • Eerste resultaten officieel in 2008 • Niet compleet – belangrijke lacunes – Niet alle BQEs, soms alleen parameters (Chl‐a) – Niet alle GIGs – Heterogeniteit in methodologie (door ‘learning by doing’) – Problemen met referentiecondities
• Tweede fase noodzakelijk • Doel: alles klaar in 2011
Preparation of continuation after 2006…
Preconditions
Guidance for Phase 2
Q1. Do all national assessment methods meet the requirements of the Water Framework Directive?
NO
Exclude methods not meeting the requirements.
NO
Establish groups of methods within which intercalibration is carried out and exclude methods that do not fit in any group.
YES IC feasibility check 1
Q2. Do all national methods address the same common type(s) and pressure(s), and follow a similar assessment concept?
• Preconditions
YES
• Harmonised process for all GIGs, BQEs covering the different IC ‘options’ • Only intercalibrate WFD compliant methods at BQE level – Compliance check of methods with common criteria
Q3. Do all countries apply a common assessment method (but different classifications)?
YES
NO
Data basis for IC analysis Common Dataset
Common Dataset Common Dataset feat. partial datasets
IC option
1 – Common Assessment Method
• Datasets and Intercalibration options
2 – Use of Common Metrics
3 – Direct Comparison supported by Use of Common Metrics
Selection of common metric(s) IC feasibility check 2
Q5. Are all methods reasonably related to the common metric(s)? YES
• Common data sets and common metrics wherever possible • Harmonised criteria to assess comparability of class boundaries
Q4. Is the BQE data sampling and processing generally similar, so that all national assessment methods can reasonably be applied to the data of other countries?
NO
YES
NO Improve common metric(s) or reconsider step Q2.
Benchmarking
Q6. Do the intercalibration datasets contain sites in near-natural conditions? YES Screen for sites using abiotic reference criteria, validate with biological data.
NO Screen for sites using abiotic criteria representing selected environmental status, validate with biological data.
• Benchmarking
Description of IC type-specific reference/biological benchmark communities at GIG level, considering possible biogeographical differences Boundary comparison/ setting
Q7. Do the good ecological status boundaries of the national methods comply with the WFD normative definitions? YES
NO
Demonstrate national boundary setting and compare national classifications.
Design and apply Boundary Setting Protocol at GIG level.
Description of IC type-specific biological communities at GIG level representing moderate deviation from reference conditions (goodmoderate boundary), including associated environmental conditions
• Boundary setting • Boundary comparison and harmonization

Conclusies • 10 jaar WFD Æ ontwikkeling biologische methodes – Rivieren: voor alle BQEs – Meren: voor de meeste BQEs; vissen relatief problematisch – Kust/overgangswateren: meet problematisch
• Grote mate van heterogeniteit in methodes • Intercalibratie was complexer dan verwacht – Eerste ronde was onvolledig – Tweede ronde loopt af in 2011
