What about groundwater bodies?

Country: Poland, RBDs: 9 10
gruszprz 12 Apr 2012 15:23:48

I suggest adding an explanation of abbrevaition used in the heads of the column to make it completely understandable for any reader.
gruszprz 12 Apr 2012 15:32:38

Area unit shuld be defined and shown in the heads of relevant columns.

Rmanian corrections in the table for Romania related to the Table 2.6: Number of RBDs, water bodies, and river lengths, area of lakes, transitional and coastal waters per country:

For rivers: AvgL = 23 km instead 26 (74473:3262 = 22,83);

For lakes: AvgA= 8 skm instead 3 (993 : 131 = 7,58);

Table 2.6: Number of RBDs, water bodies, and river lengths, area of lakes, transitional and coastal waters per country. Lithuanian data on coastal and transitional waters is missing, however it has been reported. Please update following information: Transitional waters - number of water bodies: 4, average area: 128,75 km2, total area – 515 km2 ; Coastal waters – number of WBs – 2, average area: 57,38 km2, total area – 114,75 km2.

The number of lake water bodies for Cyprus is wrong. In the Cyprus "EU-summary report Articles 5 & 6" (submitted March 2005), Cyprus did report 18 lake water bodies in Table SWPI6-1.

Please correct. We are available for any clarifications.
