Drivers & Pressures

The main hydromorphological pressures affecting European freshwater systems have been identified in the EFI+ project and EU Intercalibration process. These pressures have been organized in pressure groups, indicated below as Subcategories, according to the Water Framework Directive. For each pressure group a number of possible restoration and rehabilitation measures are discussed in the section Aims & Measures. The complete list of pressures is presented at the bottom of the page under Pages in category Pressures.
