T/CSES 13-2020 Guidelines for Developing Ecological Water Quality Standards
Basic Information
Scope
Scope: This document specifies the technical process for establishing water ecological benchmarks based on the water ecological zoning of river basins, quality assurance, selection of water environmental reference states, screening of benchmark parameters, investigation of parameters, benchmark derivation, benchmark review, and benchmark application. This document is applicable to guiding the derivation of water ecological benchmarks for rivers, lakes and reservoirs (collectively referred to as lakes and reservoirs) and estuaries in China's water ecological zoning areas. Main technical content: In view of the progress and development needs of water environmental benchmarks in China's river basins, research on the method of establishing water ecological benchmarks in river basins is carried out to provide a basis for the establishment of water ecological benchmarks for surface water environments (rivers, lakes and reservoirs) in China's river basins. The specific technical content includes: (1) Scope; (2) Normative reference documents; (3) Terms and definitions; (4) Technical process and quality assurance; (5) Selection of water environmental reference states; (6) Screening of benchmark parameters; (7) Investigation of parameters; (8) Benchmark derivation; (9) Benchmark review; (10) Benchmark application
