The Member States are in Figure 4.5 ranked by the percentage of water bodies achieving at least good ecological status or potential, for coastal and transitional waters the ranking are for the sea regions. Estonia has, for example, the highest proportion of river water bodies with good ecological status or potential, while Belgium (Flanders) has the worst status. Both for rivers and lakes there are good agreement between the ranking by proportion of water bodies with good status and the proportion of water bodies affected by hydromorphological pressures and haltered habitats. Member States with high proportion of good ecological status also generally have lower proportion of water bodies being affected by hydromorphological pressures or altered habitats.
