Assessment of the ecological status of the Northern Adriatic coastal waters: testing and adapting two phytoplankton indices

Francé, Janja (author), Mozetič, Patricija (author)

As stated in the WFD, the response of phytoplankton to eutrophication of coastal waters needs to be assessed by evaluating biomass, composition and abundance, and blooms. We present the application of two indices (Ie, Iss), which goes beyond the only metrics (Chlorophyll a concentrations) considered till now in the Mediterranean intercalibration group.
