Water Quality Forecast And Information System Built With FLOSS Software, Romania
  The CLEANWATER system combines information to evaluate the present level of nutrient pollution in vulnerable areas, and assesses the cost efficiency of measures that could be applied. A web interface gives decision makers a tool to create scenarios related to human activities and climate changes, send them to numerical models, and view, query and analyse the results.
