- The main pressures are point and diffuse source pollution, and various hydromorphological pressures. Diffuse pollution affects 37 % and point source pollution 18 % of the surface water bodies, while hydromorphological pressures affect 41 % of water bodies.

Please check the figures on proportion of SWBs affected by main pressures (which look to be the main significant pressures) and harmonize them among sub-chapters and figures 2.8 and 6.2 because these are different -please see below :
......Diffuse pollution affects 37 % and point source pollution 18 % of the surface water bodies, while hydromorphological pressures affect 41 % of water bodies.
Figure 2.8. Proportion of water bodies affected by main pressures of all surface water bodies and by categories: rivers, lakes, transitional and coastal waters - Diffuse pollution affects 38 % and point source pollution 18 % of the surface water bodies, while hydromorphological pressures affect 40 % of water bodies.
Figure 6.2. - Diffuse pollution affects 37 % and hydromorphological pressures affect 41 % of water bodies.
Also at the page 55 -Key messages it is mentioned : Diffuse sources (62 %) and hydromorphological pressures (40 %) are the main significant pressures on surface water bodies, followed by point sources (21 %) and abstraction (7 %).
Also please check/indicate at the page 55 -Key messages if these figures represent the proportion of water bodies affected by main pressures and indicate that Diffuse sources (62 %) include also the atmospheric deposition
