Realignment Wrauster Bogen

Degree of synergistic effects and conflicts according WFD aims

Table 2: Effect of the measure concerning the main pressures in the freshwater zone of the Elbe estuary
Indicator Group Code Main pressures freshwater zone Elbe Effect? Description: Aims of the measure ‘Wrauster Bogen’
- - - 0 + + +
S.I. - Habitat loss and degradation during the last about 100 years: Subtidal     0      
S.I. 1.1 Habitat loss and degradation during the last about 100 years: Intertidal         + + Creation of new marsh habitats and intertidal areas
S.I. 1.4/ 1.5 Gross change in morphology/hydrographic regime during the last about 100 years     0      
S.I. 3.1/3.2 Decrease of water and sediment chemical quality     0      
D.I. 2.3 Discharge of nutrients or harmful substances     0      
D.I. 1.3 Land claim during the last about 100 years         ++ Creation of new marsh habitats and intertidal areas
D.I. 2.6 Capital dredging     0      

S.I. = state indicator; D.I. = driver indicator

The measure ‘Wrauster Bogen’ was implemented before the WFD become effective. But nevertheless the measure has a positive influence on the main pressures of the freshwater zone.
