    Pie charts give good overview. But... see comments above:

    • indicate the maximum of increase and decrease instead of “…more than 2meters…”
    • Relate the trend results to the overall number of sites (1 site in GR is compared with 1214 sites in FR. Strange)

      Thank you for your comment.

      For the first part, please refer to response provided above.

      The number of sites are added in the note section of the figure. In addition, Greece was removed from the indicator assessment (see resonse to previous comment)

    It should be recalculated with using the same units.
