Comprehensive and contemporary evaluations of physical, chemical and toxicological endpoints have been performed on bed sediments collected from ten representative areas of the Po river. The two sampling campaigns were paralleled by contemporary investigations on the macroinvertebrate community. The many results of this project have provided the first description of the sediment quality of the major Italian watercourse, but, besides this, the Po sediment project also accomplished another important objective, that is the evaluation of several indicators and techniques to investigate the sediment quality changes along a large riverine environment. The results and the analysis that supported this objective are briefly reported and discussed in this document, which also examines the experimental design of the Po sediment project. All being key factors of an effective implementation of complex environmental legislations such as the Italian Decree no. 152/99.
对从波河十个代表性区域采集的河床沉积物进行了物理、化学和毒理学终点的全面和当代评估。这两次采样活动同时进行了对大型无脊椎动物群落的当代调查。该项目的众多结果首次描述了意大利主要水道的沉积物质量，但除此之外，波河沉积物项目还实现了另一个重要目标，即评估若干指标和技术，以研究大型河流环境中沉积物质量的变化。本文件简要报告并讨论了支持这一目标的结果和分析，该文件还审视了波河沉积物项目的实验设计。所有这些都是有效实施诸如意大利第152/99号法令等复杂环境立法的关键因素。
