1 Development and validation of methods for integrated assessment of ecological status of rivers and lakes to support RBMP Lake macrophytes Warsaw, 9-10 February 2011 UWM:Hanna Ciecierska Joanna Ruszczyńska Jan Dziedzic Piotr Dynowski IEP: Agnieszka Kolada NIVA: Marit Mjelde Polsko-Norweski Fundusz Badań Naukowych / Polish-Norwegian Research Fund

2 To perform field survey of macrophytes in lakes of Wel river catchemnt by different surveyors and using different methods – COMPLETED To test and validatie macrophyte method used in Poland in lake ecological status assessment – COMPLETED To test and validate the applicability of different macrophyte metrics describing taxonomic composition and abundance in lake ecological status assessment – COMPLETED To estimate an uncertainty and risk of misclassification in lake assessment based on macrophytes concerning different surveyours and different methods – RUNNING To combine macrophyte-based assessment with assessment based on other biological elements, physico-chemical parameters and hydromorphology Aims:

3 Polsko-Norweski Fundusz Badań Naukowych / Polish-Norwegian Research Fund Relationships between macrophyte indicators and water quality parameters; values of determination coef. R 2 >0,6 marked in bold ESMI responds good enough to be applied for lake assessment !!! Testing ESMI:

4 Polsko-Norweski Fundusz Badań Naukowych / Polish-Norwegian Research Fund Testing ESMI: RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN ESMI AND WATER QUALITY PARAMETERS Relationships almost linear !!!

5 Polsko-Norweski Fundusz Badań Naukowych / Polish-Norwegian Research Fund Uncertainty: SOURCES OF UNCERTAINTY IN MULTIMETRIC ESMI 12 lakes surveyed by using four survey methods of different level of accuracy: Polish monitoring protocol based on transects and plant communities (synecological approach) method based on transects and plant species (autecological approach) method based on phytolittoral mapping sigma-association method (one lake = one reléve) METHOD ACCURACY 12 lakes surveyed on 6 to 26 spatially distributed transects: SPATIAL VARIABILITY 10 lakes surveyed by using Polish original monitoring protocol by two or three independent surveyors: WORKER ERROR
