Screeningprogrammet
The screening programme is our first instance of investigating the occurrence of new types of pollutants. The results are used to assess the need for new regulations and whether the investigated substance should be included in the other monitoring programmes.

Case studies
ICP Waters
The programme collects monitoring data from approximately 20 countries in Europe and North America to monitor and investigate the extent to which air pollution affects lakes and rivers, particularly regarding acidification, heavy metals and pollutants.
Biosecurity in RAS (recirculating aquaculture systems) (BRAS)
The main goal of the project is to strengthen biosecurity in RAS facilities with new knowledge about the sensitivity of pathogenic microorganisms to different biosecurity strategies and survival in RAS.

SusWater
SusWater (Sustainable governance of river basins with Hydropower production) focuses on water management in regulated rivers. The project looks at various avenues towards a more unified water management that is accepted both locally and nationally, while international obligations are met.
EU Water Framework Directive and ecological water quality
FAIRWAY - Farm systems management and governance for producing good water quality for drinking water supplies
The FAIRWAY project aims to review approaches for protection of drinking water resources against pollution by pesticides and nitrate, and develop innovative measures and governance approaches for effective drinking water protection.
Framework agreement with the Ministry of Climate and Environment for climate and environmental expertise
NIVA is part of a CICERO-led consortium that has won an exclusive framework agreement for climate and environmental knowledge for the Ministry of Climate and Environment (KLD) for 2023-2025. Together with our partners, we will contribute tools and expertise to the development of climate and environmental policy both nationally and internationally.

Is Europe ready to restore its nature?
Early 2024, the European Parliament will have a final vote on the Nature Restoration Law (NRL). An international team of scientists has investigated the prospects of the new regulation and published an article about it in the journal Science.

Monitoring of Reference Rivers
The program "Monitoring in reference rivers" consists of monitoring in assumed reference sites in rivers with no or negligible human impact.
The River Monitoring Program
The purpose of the river monitoring program is to calculate inputs of nutrients and pollutants to Norwegian marine areas through monitoring of rivers and modeling of inputs from areas without monitoring.
