Specification of information needs: how?• Water management analysis
– Policy / water management objectives– Legal obligations– Inventory of water resources use / land use
• Function-issue table• Cause-effect relationship for each
function-issue combination• Define DPSIR indicators• Define parameters for each indicator

Defining indicatorsEcological functioning
Driving force Pressure State Impact Response Number of individual households Amount of water consumption for municipal purposes
The load of P and N from WWTP´s discharged into the river and its tributaries from point sources
Concentrations of P and N in groundwater Concentration of chlorophyll Water consumption index per capita
Changes in diversity, abundance and distribution of species, number of species of flora and fauna Number and area of algae blooming (blue-green algae, diatoms, green algae), including the algae toxic for the water fauna, for cattle and people
Number of sewage systems Number of new sewage treatment plants constructed Costs of removing N and P from the sewage
Eutrophication
Agricultural land use area and distribution in the basin Amount of artificial and natural fertilisers used in agriculture
Amount of nutrients washed off into the river
N and P concentrations, O2 concentration
Turbidity, changes in diversity and abundance in fish populations, timing and number of fish kills, timing and number water bloom
Investment into good agriculture practices in € per year
