Description	The ARROW (Assessment and Reference Reports of Water monitoring) project is the project of implementation of EU Water Framework Directive in the monitoring of surface waters of the Czech Republic and covers all aspects of this problem from data sampling to informatics solution (focusing on the ecostat). The important part of the ARROW project is the development and implementation of a Czech approach to the evaluation of the ecological state of surface waters using an analysis of monitoring data. The main idea of the system is an approach based on a network of reference sites and robust multivariate modeling of expected environmental and biological conditions.
