Hydromorphological pressures causing altered habitats is the other major pressure in European lakes, affecting the majority of water bodies in Member States with a large proportion of lakes in moderate or worse ecological status or potential (Fig. 4.11.d). [A large share of these lakes is heavily modified or artificial reservoirs.] In Member States with better ecological status or potential this pressure and impact affect less than 50% of the classified lakes. Some of these pressures may also affect only a part of the lake shore, and thus may in some cases not be sufficient to degrade the ecological status of the whole lake water body.
