NAPSEA Safe Ecological Limits

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This deliverable addresses the Safe Ecological Limits in the four NAPSEA case studies. For the Wadden Sea, new limits were derived from seagrass and phytoplankton composition. The reduction needed to reach these Safe Ecological Limits were put into perspective of three riverine case studies (Rhine Catchment, Elbe estuary, Hunze catchment) each with their own unique environmental setting and reduction needs.
