Figure 4.4 Proportion of water bodies in different River Basin Districts affected by hydromorphological pressures for rivers and lakes (left panel) and for coastal and transitional waters (right panel).

Note: percentage, based on number of classified water bodies

"No data reported" is not appropriate for Cyprus' coastal waters.

In the Cyprus "EU-summary report Articles 5 & 6" (submitted March 2005), in Table SWPI6-1, five out of 25 coastal water bodies (20%) were reported to be affected by morphological alterations. Please revise the map accordingly. We are available for any clarifications.

Swiss data on rivers could be included based on the Hydromorphology study (as % of river length). The respective data is found here: http://www.bafu.admin.ch/umwelt/indikatoren/08525/08586/index.html?lang=en, where the sum of all categories except "natural/near natural" would correspond to the EEA category "...affected by hymo pressures for rivers".

No corresponding study/national overview exists on lakes.
