It could be useful to add a caption to explain how the number of sites or rates are computed : for France case, there is 109 +1080 + 316 + 140 = 1645 sites , but the table indicates a total of 1763
Malta has been omitted from this table, when monitoring for pesticides in this reporting period 2013 to 2020 has occurred and no pesticides were detected in groundwater.
If available, additional information could be given for the type of groundwater monitoring sites i.e. monitoring well/spring
At least it needs to add the number of monitored pesticides.
Switzerland:
We are also not able to reconstruct the total number of reported monitoring sites for groundwater. The number do not correspond the data shown e.g. on the dashboard “Exceedances by Country by Year”.
Could you please provide more information on the methodology?
