The quality of Belgian surface waters is monitored through a widespread monitoring network. All stations in this network are sampled 4 times a year, while the border stations are sampled each month. This study compiles the results of all stations along the Schelde river. 40 parameters per station are measured. Of these, 10 parameters have been chosen that are representative for the Schelde water quality. The data of these 10 parameters are analysed, compiled and interpreted graphically in this report.

The study of the pollution of the Yzer (West Flanders, Belgium) was created in the frame of the national programme for the physical and biological environment of the Interministrial Commission for Scientific Policy.
