Certain river basins and NUTS2 regions, which were significantly affected by seasonal water scarcity in 2019, are found in Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Malta, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Sweden, Spain and Turkey (seasonal WEI+ > 20%; see further NUTS2 seasonal WEI+ results and River basin seasonal WEI+ results).

    We don't find the same results for French regions as those shown on the previous map

      Thank you for your comment, as mentioned earlier we will re-assess the French case in the context of underlying data to identify the reason for differences with your own calculation. In order to be able to undertake such analyses, we kindly request to provide the results of your WEI+ computation. In the case we could not achieve the close WEI+ values to your calculation for French basin(s), could you please let us know about the next steps? Either we can accommodate a disclaimer to the map indicating the difference of WEI+ results between the EEA and France; or we can omit those French basins from the map.

    Italy:

    According to our previous comments we cannot validate the statement that certain Italian river basins and NUTS2 regions were significantly affected by seasonal water scarcity in 2019

      Thank you for your comment, we will re-assess the Italian case in the context of underlying data to identify if there is any data or computation related errors to be corrected. Please be informed that the spatial delineations used in this assessment are based on the EEA ECRINS spatial database an integral part of the EEA water accounts system. The basis of this spatial system is the functional elementary catchments (FEC) which allow us to - quite accurately - aggregate to other scales such as Subbasins, RBDs, NUTS2 and Country.

      Similar to the previous feedback to France, we kindly ask you to provide your WEI+ computation to make an accurate comparison to improve the EEA results for Italian basin(s). If such results are not available, please let us know the next steps to be taken. Either we can accommodate a disclaimer to the map indicating the difference of WEI+ results between the EEA and Italy; or we can omit those Italian basins from the dataset and map.
