The hydromorphological status was determined by a monitoring compliant with the Water Framework Directive (Directive 2000/60/EU). The elaboration of a structural quality mapping is one part of this monitoring. Within the scope of the work on the structural quality mapping, a total of 31 parameters in the area of the river bed, the river bank and the floodplain are assessed so that the structural quality mapping contains detailed information on the river morphology and the river continuity. In this case, the evaluation of the mapped sections is based on seven classes. The results of the evaluation were aggregated into an overall evaluation per mapped section.
-
Cartography of cross profiles of a representative river section every 1000 meters. The assessment of the rate of river incision was calculated from the ratio between bankfull height and bankfull width.
-
Detailed cartography of substrate based on the analysis of 100 meters representative river sections, every 1000 meters.

In this case, the evaluation of the mapped sections is based on five classes. The areas river bed, left river bank, right riverbank, left floodplain and right floodplain are represented in 5 strips.
-
Detailed inventory of transversal structures which represent an obstacle to the ecological continuity for fish or sediments (e.g. weirs, dams, ramps, waterfalls).
-
Detailed inventory of crossing structures which represent an obstacle to the ecological continuity for fish or sediments (e.g. culverts).

-
Restoration of the ecological continuity for fish, macroinvertebrates, sediments and terrestrial animals by culverts, through its permanent suppression, or through its adaptation in order to reach natural conditions of substrate, depth, flow rate, luminosity and riverbank structure.
-
Riverbanks improvement by permanent removal of heavy stabilization techniques or by their replacement with plant engineering solutions, in order to recreate near-natural riverbanks with typical vegetation and diversified structures, thus creating microhabitats for aquatic flora and fauna.
-
Enable an autonomous dynamic development of the river within clearly defined zones (ideally within a river corridor), leading to the formation of riverbed and riverbanks’ structures compliant with the river typology.
