DIN EN 16698:2015-12

This European Standard specifies procedures for phytoplankton sampling in inland waters and describes methods of sampling techniques for phytoplankton in inland waters (e. g. rivers and channels, or lakes, ponds, reservoirs and other artificial water bodies, respectively). This European Standard gives guidance for sampling of phytoplankton for qualitative and quantitative limnological investigations and monitoring of water quality, e. g. ecological status.
