Description
Assessment of the ecological quality of coastal water bodies in Réunion as part of the monitoring programme of the Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC) for phytoplankton. Only the biomass index is taken into account, as composition and abundance cannot yet be defined.
Sampling shall be carried out in sub-surface areas. The management plan is monitored every year on the basis of two campaigns per sampled period: Southern winter (July/August), warm season November/December), mid-cyclonic season (February/March).
