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.
Kohäsive Feinpartikel sind potentielle Träger von anorganischen und organischen Schadstoffen und spielen eine entscheidende Rolle beim Stoffaustausch zwischen Wasserkörper, Schwebstoff und Sediment. Daher ist die Kenntnis der Depositionsdynamik dieser Feinpartikel ein wichtiger Baustein für ein effizientes Sedimentmanagement und eine physikalisch basierte Modellierung des Schadstofftransfers in Fließgewässern. Es überrascht jedoch, dass sich Untersuchungen zum Transport- und Sedimentationsverhalten kohäsiver Partikel bisher häufig auf definierte stationäre Randbedingungen im Labormaßstab und Trockenwetterbedingungen im Gelände konzentrieren. Weitgehend ungeklärt ist hingegen das Verhalten von Feinpartikeln und deren Speicherung im Gerinnebett während der dynamischen Phase von Hochwasserereignissen. Um die im Gerinne ablaufenden Prozesse weitgehend unabhängig von den Einzugsgebietsprozessen zu untersuchen hat sich in unserer Arbeitsgruppe seit nunmehr über 10 Jahren ein Ansatz mit künstlich generierten Hochwasserwellen bewährt. Es ist ein genereller Vorteil von solchen Geländeexperimenten, dass einzelne steuernde Größen ausgeschlossen oder gezielt kontrolliert werden können. Außerdem ist ein solcher Ansatz eine Voraussetzung, um die Aussagekraft experimentell gewonnener Laborergebnisse zur potentiell hohen Feinpartikel-Retention in Sand- und Kiessedimenten in einem natürlichen System zu validieren. Das übergeordnete Ziel des hier beantragten Projekts ist es, die Gerinnespeicherung kohäsiver Feinpartikel in einem natürlichen System bei variierenden hydrologisch-hydraulischen Randbedingungen zu quantifizieren. Zu diesem Zweck werden standardisierte Feinpartikeltracer (Kaolinit, d50 = 2ìm, ñ = 2,6 g/cm3) sowohl im Verlauf von künstlich generierten Hochwasserwellen als auch während stationärer Trockenwetterbedingungen in einen Mittelgebirgsbach induziert. Die Retention und Sedimentation der eingegebenen Feinpartikel wird gezielt in kleinräumig variierenden Flussbettstrukturen (Hyporheische Zone, Stillwasserzonen, Gerinnerandbereiche, Riffle-Pool-Sequenzen) und für einzelne Gerinneabschnitte erfasst. Die Quantifizierung der Speicherung erfolgt mit bereits erprobten Resuspensionstechniken und Sedimentfallen sowie einer in Pilotprojekten erfolgreich getesteten Tracerfrachtberechnung mittels FTIR-DRIFT Spektroskopie an mehreren Basismessstationen im Längsprofil. In einem interdisziplinären Forscherverbund mit Kollegen des 'Hydraulics Laboratory' und des 'Dept. of Civil Engineering' der Universität Gent, der 'Ecosystem Management Research Group, Dept. of Biology' der Universität Antwerpen und des 'Dept. of Hydrology and Hydraulic Engineering' der Freien Universität Brüssel in Belgien wird darüber hinaus die Transport- und Speicherdynamik der Feinpartikel mit der neuen, FORTRAN basierten Modellierungssoftware 'FEMME' ('Flexible Environment for Mathematically Modelling the Environment') abgebildet.
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
DWD’s fully automatic MOSMIX product optimizes and interprets the forecast calculations of the NWP models ICON (DWD) and IFS (ECMWF), combines these and calculates statistically optimized weather forecasts in terms of point forecasts (PFCs). Thus, statistically corrected, updated forecasts for the next ten days are calculated for about 5400 locations around the world. Most forecasting locations are spread over Germany and Europe. MOSMIX forecasts (PFCs) include nearly all common meteorological parameters measured by weather stations.

The WEI+ provides a measure of total water consumption as a percentage of the renewable freshwater resources available for a given territory and period. The WEI+ is an advanced geo-referenced version of the WEI. It quantifies how much water is abstracted monthly or seasonally and how much water is returned before or after use to the environment via river basins (e.g. leakages, discharges by economic sectors). The difference between water abstractions and water returns is regarded as ‘water consumption’.
The present dataset from Germany is encompassed in the European Biodiversa BioRodDis project (Managing BIOdiversity in forests and urban green spaces: Dilution and amplification effects on RODent microbiomes and rodent-borne DISeases. Project coordinator: Nathalie Charbonnel, Senior researcher (DR2, INRAE), nathalie.charbonnel@inrae.fr - https://www6.inrae.fr/biodiversa-bioroddis). The project comes with the purpose to explore on a large scale the relationship between biodiversity of rodents, rodent-borne diseases dynamics and differences over time in a changing climate and it includes data of small terrestrial mammals from temperate forests and urban parks from the following countries: Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland and Poland. The present dataset includes records of small mammals (Rodentia) occurrences trapped in urbanised and forested areas in northeast Germany in the district of Potsdam (Brandenburg). Samplings and data collection took place throughout three years and during a total of four seasons: winter 2020, spring 2021, autumn 2021 and spring 2022. The number of sampling sites varied between 2 and 4 per seasons, with two main sites (Germany EastA and Germany EastB) being permanent in each sampling season. These variations are mainly due to the impact of SARS-CoV-2 pandemic regulations (2020, 2021) on the organisation and the execution of fieldwork and to the exclusion subsequently of forested sites with very low density of animals (≤10 individuals: Germany EastC, Germany EastB). The two main sampling sites represent different levels of anthropisation. The site Germany EastA is around the Botanical Garden belonging to the University of Potsdam with a mixture of sealed and wooded areas and a constant human presence while the site Germany EastB is a forested sub-urbanised area outside of the city composed by mixed coniferous forests, meadows, crossed by a main road and with occasional human presence (hunters, foresters). All animals were live captured (as in Schirmer et al., 2019) using a combination of Ugglan and Longworth traps for a total of 100-150 traps, depending on site and year. Traps were placed in 4 to 6 lines with 25m distance, and each line was composed by a total of 25 traps placed with 10m distance from each other. Fieldwork actions generally started with 1-4 days of pre-baiting followed by 1-10 days of trapping, according to efficiency of trapping and subprojects included. The sites Germany EastC and Germany EastD were excluded from the last two seasons because of very low trapping success during the previous seasons. All the traps were controlled daily during early morning hours and were activated again in the evening, with animals spending not more than eight hours in the trap. Baiting mixture consisted of oat flakes and apples and all traps were equipped with insulating material, like hay or wood wool. Taxonomical identification was determined in the field at species level according to morphology and previously recorded species occurrences in the sampling area (Dolch, 1995). Molecular identification of Apodemus flavicollis and Microtus individuals that were subsequently dissected was performed by the CBGP (France) using CO1 sequencing for Microtus species following Pagès et al., 2010, and DNA fingerprinting (AP-PCR) for Apodemus species (Bugarski-Stanojević et al., 2013). Dissections and body measurements were performed following the protocols described in Herbreteau et al., 2011. At the end of all seasons, a total of 620 occurrences of rodents was recorded, belonging to two main families (Muridae, Cricetidae) and four different species (Apodemus flavicollis, Apodemus agrarius, Myodes glareolus and Microtus arvalis). Additionally, for a subset of individuals (n=264), body measurements like weight, body length, head width, tail length and hind foot length as well as sexual maturity data were recorded. Animals were captured in accordance with the applicable international and institutional guidelines for the use of animals in research. The trapping and collection of rodents was performed under the permission of “Landesamt für Arbeitsschutz, Verbraucherschutz und Gesundheit Brandenburg (LAVG)“ (no. 2347-A-16-1-2020 for procedure, LUGV_RW7-4744/41+5#243052/2015 and N1 0424 for trapping) and “Landesamt für Umwelt Brandenburg (LfU)” (no. LFU-N1-4744/97+17#194297/2020, for sites and species exemptions). This project was funded through the 2018-2019 BiodivERsA joint call for research proposals, under the BiodivERsA3 ERA-Net COFUND programme, and coordinated by the German Science Foundation DFG (Germany).

The Floods Directive (FD) was adopted in 2007 (https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=celex:32007L0060). The purpose of the FD is to establish a framework for the assessment and management of flood risks, aiming at the reduction of the adverse consequences for human health, the environment, cultural heritage and economic activity associated with floods in the European Union. ‘Flood’ means the temporary covering by water of land not normally covered by water. This shall include floods from rivers, mountain torrents, Mediterranean ephemeral water courses, and floods from the sea in coastal areas, and may exclude floods from sewerage systems. This reference spatial dataset, reported under the Floods Directive, includes the areas of potential significant flood risk (APSFR), as they were lastly reported by the Member States to the European Commission, and the Units of Management (UoM).
Data compiled are annual national total and sectoral emissions of air pollutants and associated activity data reported by EEA member and cooperating countries. Data are available for download in the UNECE/EMEP Nomenclature for Reporting (NFR) format used by countries. A consolidated dataset for all countries and consistent with the European Union's air pollutant emission inventory submission to the LRTAP Convention is also provided.
