				<dd3:Methodology><![CDATA[Some EEA Member Countries and Marine Conventions have previously submitted data on yearly riverine inputs to transitional, coastal and marine waters. The input data, up to the last year of requested data, are available to be viewed and downloaded from the publicly accessible Waterbase, hosted by the EEA Data Service at:
http://dataservice.eea.europa.eu/dataservice/metadetails.asp?id=1045.

Data providers are asked to check and validate the published data, and include any amendments or missing information in the next delivery of data.

Comparable and harmonised data are requested on the concentrations and distribution of nutrients, organic matter and hazardous substances measured at transitional, coastal and marine water flux monitoring stations. The focus is on those hazardous substances included as Water Framework Directive Priority Substances, those noted in Lists I and II of the Dangerous Substances Directive, as well as HELCOM and OSPAR Priority Substances, and any other nationally monitored hazardous substances. All determinands are detailed in the codelist attached to the Determinand_InputDischarge field. This list is not exhaustive. Countries are asked to provide the name and CAS Number, if appropriate, of any additional determinands included in their data submissions.

Data should be provided for each flux station used in calculating riverine loads entering the sea. The national station identifier for the flux station should be the same as that provided for the river flux station. Details of the water body and the sea area into which the river discharges are also requested.

Loads of riverine inputs are requested as annual values and should be estimated with details of the type and method of estimation provided. Details of the water body and sea into which the river discharges are also required. 

The following fields combine to create a unique record in this table: CountryCode, NationalStationID, Year, Determinand_InputDischarge and Estimate.

We would like to encourage all countries to provide riverine input load data for as many determinands and for as long a time series as possible.]]></dd3:Methodology>
