The present report contains six case studies that illustrate regional adaptation to key water resource issues resulting from climate change and other causes such as increased water use. In addition to detailed literature analysis for each region, the case studies included interviews with...

In this study, long-term measurements of rural background ozone levels are analysed and compared with modelling results and sensitivity analyses. Rural background stations are used in order to rule out the influence of local conditions close to sources of ozone precursors (mainly traffic)....

The Eionet priority data flows identify a set of agreed, stable, well-defined objectives to provide a focus for countries when they are putting procedures in place for regular reporting. The objective is to encourage countries towards better performance through “compétition amicale”...

This report presents particulate matter (PM10) and ground‑level ozone concentration maps covering the whole of Europe. The interpolated maps are based on a combination of measurement and regional modelling results. Using measured concentrations as a primary source of information, the report...

Die EUA verfolgt das Ziel, nachhaltige Entwicklung zu fördern und zu einer erheblichen und messbaren Verbesserung der Umwelt in Europa beizutragen. Dazu stellt sie zeitgerechte, zielgerichtete, relevante und zuverlässige Informationen für politische Akteure und die Öffentlichkeit bereit.

The EMEP/EEA air pollutant emission inventory guidebook (formerly referred to as the EMEP CORINAIR emission inventory guidebook) provides guidance on estimating emissions from both anthropogenic and natural emission sources. It is designed to facilitate reporting of emission inventories by...

The European environment — state and outlook 2010 (SOER 2010) is aimed primarily at policymakers, in Europe and beyond, involved with framing and implementing policies that could support environmental improvements in Europe. The information also helps European citizens to better understand,...

Ozone levels during summer 2009 were as low as during summer 2008 and according to several indicators were among the lowest since reporting of Europe-wide data commenced in 1997. In contrast to previous summers, in 2009 there were no pan-European multi-day episodes. Summer 2009 was characterised...

The last few years have seen a growing awareness of environmental change and the need for urgent policy action. In 2009 the EEA started to implement its new 5‑year strategy in response to this. The EEA will consolidate and improve the timing, spatial resolution and quality of environmental...

The present report considers the status and trends of pan-European biodiversity in a range of ecosystems, and the implications of these trends for biodiversity management policy and practice. It considers the key biodiversity policy instruments currently applied in Europe, the threats to...
