New legislation for the protection of inland surface waters, transitional waters, coastal waters and ground waters has recently
been established in Italy. This law presents a new integrated approach, where all water bodies are considered as complex ecosystems
to be studied in each of their components. The new concept of environmental quality of the water body, based on the ecological
and chemical status, is also introduced. At the same time (i.e. the end of 2000), the European Community approved the European
Water Framework Directive based on the same basic environmental concepts and criteria of the new Italian law. This paper analyses
the important points and innovations required by the new Italian legislation for monitoring and classification of marine coastal
waters. Details of definitions, parameters, analysis and monitoring programs are discussed. A comparison with the European
Water Framework Directive is eventually given, underlining the specific characteristics of the Mediterranean sea, which have
to be taken into consideration when applying the European Directive to this particular ecoregion. 相似文献

A new benthic index, named Daphne, is proposed for the Northern Adriatic coastal area, near the Po river delta. It is based on six characteristics of the community that do not require in-depth taxonomic expertise: number of mollusc species, % of bivalves, % of polychaetes, abundance of the opportunistic species Corbula gibba, % of amphipods and number of 'typical mollusc species' that are individuated by multivariate analysis. The application of the index in selected stations along a gradient of decreasing disturbance shows that it is simple to use in regular monitoring campaigns and that the results are consistent with environmental quality data in the special conditions of this area subjected to considerable river runoff. The index can be used in addition and as a complement to more widespread indices (such as M-AMBI); a comparison of the two indices performance is discussed. 相似文献
