The Corine Land Cover status layers are modified for the purpose of consistent statistical analysis in the land cover change accounting system at EEA. Corine Land Cover (CLC) data are produced from 1986 for the European (EEA member or cooperating) countries. Pan-European CLC and CLCC data are available as vector and raster products.
The WISE Water Accounts database contains monthly water accounts for the years 1990-2015 for 117 European river basins extracted from the ECRINS functional river basin districts. This resource contains the spatial vector data related to the water accounts tabular data. The water accounts tabular data can be accessed here: https://sdi.eea.europa.eu/catalogue/srv/eng/catalog.search#/metadata/73f4f0ae-aa2c-49fd-9fc4-9feb4792e646 Extensive clarifications on the development of the European water accounts can be found in the following reports published by the European Commission (DG ENV): "Guidance document on the application of water balances for supporting the implementation of the Water Framework Directive" (http://ec.europa.eu/environment/water/blueprint/balances.htm) and "Water ecosystem accounts reports" (http://ec.europa.eu/environment/water/blueprint/balances.htm)
The European Red List of Habitats provides an assessment of the risk of collapse of marine, terrestrial and freshwater natural and semi-natural habitats based on a consistent set of criteria and categories and detailed data and expertise. The geographical coverage is the European Union and adjacent regions. The European Red List of Habitats project was funded by the European Commission. Subsequent projects carried out by the European Environment Agency (EEA) and European Red List habitats project coordinators further refined the codes and names and enhanced crosslinks to other habitat typologies.

The Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive concerns the collection, treatment and discharge of urban waste water and the treatment and discharge of waste water from certain industrial sectors. The objective of the Directive is to protect the environment from the adverse effects of the above mentioned waste water discharges. This series contains time series of spatial and tabular data covering Agglomerations, Discharge Points, and Treatment Plants.
Waterbase is the generic name given to the EEA's databases on the status and quality of Europe's rivers, lakes, groundwater bodies and transitional, coastal and marine waters, on the quantity of Europe's water resources, and on the emissions to surface waters from point and diffuse sources of pollution.
The WISE Water Accounts database contains 1) monthly water accounts for the years 1990-2015 for 117 European river basins extracted from the ECRINS functional river basin districts. The WISE Water Accounts database holds also 2) The Water Accounts Spatial Units dataset which is an extraction of the European catchments and Rivers network system (ECRINS), aggregation catchments and reference layers. It contains 117 river basins extracted from the ECRINS functional river basin districts (EcrAgg). The Ecrins river basin districts are delineated according to the hydrological thresholds and do not necessarily follow administrative boundaries. The main purpose of the data set is to display the EEA water accounts outputs at the river basin level.
The EU Bathing Waters Directive requires Member States to identify popular bathing places in fresh and coastal waters and monitor them for indicators of microbiological pollution (and other substances) throughout the bathing season which runs from May to September
