Drivers & Pressures
Drivers are anthropogenic activities that may have an environmental effect [1], for example:
- Agriculture
- Urbanization
- Industry
- Water supply
- Navigation and transport in general
- Fisheries
- Recreation
- Flood protection
Pressures are the direct effect of the driver, for example, an effect that causes a change in flow or a change in the water quality.
The main hydromorphological pressures affecting European freshwater systems have been identified in the EFI+ project and EU Intercalibration process. These pressures have been organized into pressure groups, indicated below as Subcategories, according to the Water Framework Directive. Click in the subcategory to see the pressures contained in it. The complete list of pressures in alphabetical order is presented at the bottom of the page under Pages in category "Pressures"
For each pressure group a number of possible restoration and rehabilitation measures are discussed in the section Aims & Measures.
