European perspectives on regional estimates of standing water bodies and the relevance of man-made ponds

Résumé

The majority of terrestrial standing water bodies (SWB) are small in size, however, their abundance and distribution is not fully known and they are under-represented in legislation. Also, the models for global inventories of SWB are so far not sufficiently designed for estimating the relative abundance of small SWB (below 0.2 ha) and provide differing estimates. In this pilot study, we suggest a bottom-up approach for estimating the number of SWB at EU-level that combines the ground-validated data on water bodies from state inventories and data from peer-generated map databases; we assess the inventories and relative importance of small terrestrial water bodies of two different countries, Estonia and France.
