According to the Water Framework Directive (WFD), which requires Member States to take measures in order to protect, enhance and restore the superficial water bodies, looking to attain a good water quality status, the work at hand aims at assessing the ecological status of the Rio Grande water bodies, by implementing the Predicted Ecological State methodology. This methodology allows the division of the fluvial ecosystem in sections with homogenous features, the identification of its degradation level through the measurement of local anthropogenic pressures and plan rehabilitation measures and actions so as to achieve the goal set by the WFD.
