Hydromorphological Quality Elements (HYMOQE)

For the implementation of the Water Framework Directive, the assessment of ecological status of water bodies may be complemented with use of hydrogeomorphological (HYMO) indicators. For inland surface waters these are:

Hydrological regime

River continuity

Morphological conditions
