Quality index of the shoreline of benthos monitoring stations

The Riparian Quality Index (IQBR) is used to assess the ecological condition of the shoreline environment. It is built from nine components that have been weighted according to their potential to perform ecological functions in terms of the protection of aquatic ecosystems.

Data on shoreline quality come from benthos monitoring stations sampled between 2003 and 2023.This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).
