It also requires the quantification of various uncertainties in both data and models, and the incorporation of stakeholders participation and institutional mechanisms into the various tools and risk assessment methodologies, to help decision makers understand and evaluate alternative measures and decisions.The other three volumes in the Water Framework Directive Series are:Water Framework Directive: Model supported Implementation - A Water Manager's Guideedited by Fred Hattermann and Zbigniew W KundzewiczIntegrated Assessment for WFD implementation: Data, economic and human dimension - Volume 2, edited by Peter A. VanrolleghemDecision support for WFD implementation - Volume 3, edited by Peter A. Vanrolleghem.
