-The ECOOP River Station Catalogues are an overview over **all** the river discharge stations that are relevant to coastal and shelf seas oceanography in the regions. The ECOOP River Station Lists contain a subset of the listings in the Catalogues. The selected subset contains the stations that are most important (in some sense) for operational oceanography, i.e., the ones to be pursued first for data access. It is a short-list that, if attained, would cover the basic needs of operational modeling and monitoring; adding other stations would only give marginal benefit.+The ECOOP River Station Catalogue is an overview over //all// the river discharge stations that are relevant to coastal and shelf seas oceanography in a ROOS region.

 +They may vary by region, but here are some candidates:
  
   - All the largest rivers emptying into the ROOS region should be included.   - All the largest rivers emptying into the ROOS region should be included.
   - The stations included should cover at least 80% of the total freshwater discharge to the ROOS region.   - The stations included should cover at least 80% of the total freshwater discharge to the ROOS region.
 +  - The stations included represent the discharge to the sea for the river, or the discharge can be parameterized on their data.
   - NRT data access is currently available or reasonably feasible.   - NRT data access is currently available or reasonably feasible.
   - Useful sets of archived data are available.   - Useful sets of archived data are available.
-  - The stations included are representative for discharge to the sea for the river, or the discharge can be parameterized on the data. 
   - Other considerations, for example:   - Other considerations, for example:
     * Rivers that are especially important sources of nutrients, pollutants, etc.     * Rivers that are especially important sources of nutrients, pollutants, etc.
     * Station where there exist formulae for parameterizing other river discharges, total run-off for an area, etc.     * Station where there exist formulae for parameterizing other river discharges, total run-off for an area, etc.
     * Rivers that affect particularly sensitive coastal systems / habitats.     * Rivers that affect particularly sensitive coastal systems / habitats.

 +=== What to do? ===
 +
 +  * Create a separate xls file for the ECOOP River Station List for each ROOS region. Simply remove all the non-included stations from the ECOOP River Station Catalogue.
 +  * Name the file similar to BOOS_river_list.xls
 +  * Do not change the column structure from the V0 River Station Catalogue xls file.
