The report consists of two parts, a regional data analysis based on an international dataset of biological and water chemical records, and a collection of national contributions on monitoring and assessment of biological recovery in different countries. The regional analysis showed that 47% of all included rivers 21 sites, for the period 1994 2018 and 35% percent of all lakes 34 sites, for the period 2000 to 2018 showed significant increases in species richness. Correlations between species diversity and water chemical components ANC, pH, SO4 were found, supporting that the biological responses were related to chemical recovery. Additionally, the composition of functional traits in rivers underwent significant changes over time. Both parts of the report demonstrate ongoing biological recovery from acidification in European acid sensitive freshwater environments. https //niva.brage.unit.no/niva xmlui/handle/11250/3081617 Responses of benthic invertebrates to chemical recovery from acidification 2023_NIVA Biol recovery.pdf Rapporto di ricerca Research report s.n. . 1682 3982 ICP Waters report ICP Waters report ICP Waters rep.
