Resumen
La
adaptación
de
los
sistemas
de
monitorización
costeros
a
la
directiva
de
aguas
de
la
Comunidad
Europea
(EC,
2000)
va
a
exigir
en
un
futuro
que
se
estudie
con
una
periodicidad
semestral
la
composición
y
abundancia
de
los
taxones
del
fitoplancton
como
indicadores
de
calidad
ecológica
de
las
aguas
costeras.
Considera
la
directiva
tres
niveles
diferentes:
a)
muy
buen
estado,
b)
buen
estado
y
c)
estado
aceptable.
Si
bien
la
directiva
establece
para
los
niveles
de
contaminantes
químicos
una
cuantificación
concreta,
para
el
diagnóstico
de
la
calidad
biológica
fija
criterios
comparativos
entre
la
composición
y
abundancia
de
taxa
de
fitoplancton
en
condiciones
inalteradas
y
en
condiciones
con
signos
moderados
de
perturbación
(Directiva,
2000/60/CE).
The adaptation of coastal monitoring systems to the European Community water directive (EC, 2000) will require in the future that the composition and abundance of phytoplankton taxa be studied every six months as indicators of the ecological quality of the coastal waters. The directive considers three different levels: a) very good condition, b) good condition and c) acceptable condition. Although the directive establishes a specific quantification for the levels of chemical contaminants, for the diagnosis of biological quality it establishes comparative criteria between the composition and abundance of phytoplankton taxa in undisturbed conditions and in conditions with moderate signs of disturbance (Directive, 2000/ 60/EC).
