Difficulties encountered: * Finding apropriate Parameters for Hazardous substances in sediment and biota * ½ of detection (quantification) limit Compatibility with EEA ** Transitional period beetwin old monitoring projects and new MSFD monitoring Annual Meeting, June 15-16 2015, Istanbul, Turkey 5 5

EMODnet chemistry can collect all missing Proposal: EMODnet chemistry can collect all missing parameters from partners, harmonize them, and then submit it to BODC parameters list. Othervise there be a many "variations" of the same parameter. Also EMODnet should be compatibile with EIONET data dictionary (and try to influence into it).
