Environmental assessment of aquatic micro pollutants should consider the spatial and temporal variability of emission, transport and transformation. Simulation models coupled with Geographic Information Systems (GIS) provide digital maps of concentration patterns caused by the overlay of multipoint and diffuse emissions and natural attenuation processes in river basins. The paper gives an overview on GIS-based models for river basins and demonstrates the applicability by using some illustrating examples with GREAT-ER. Main Features. Georeferenced models have several advantages: visualization of concentration patterns, investigation of spatial and temporal concentration profiles, analysis of exceedance of environmental quality standards, embedding in integrated river basin management systems. Results and Discussion. GIS-based models allow a more realistic assessment. Monitoring programmes should be designed to deliver appropriate measured data for the evaluation and improvement of models. Recommendation and Perspectives. The combination of digital maps, simulation models and environmental monitoring would provide better approaches for the risk assessment and water quality management of aquatic micro pollutants. © 2006 Ecomed Verlag (Verlagsgruppe Hüthig Jehle Rehm GmbH). |
