CONCLUSIONS
BACKGROUND
Environment managers increasingly have to take intervention
measures to meet ecological standards requested by, for instance,
the European Water Framework Directive
Such intervention measures often come with the obligation to
monitor for their effects

CONCLUSIONS
PROBLEM DEFINITION
Determination of statistically significant trends in response
parameters is commonly inhibited by large seasonal fluctuations in
the tested parameters
Using trend analysis, one can detect significant intervention effects
after several years only, hence making monitoring expensive
