Describes the application of the BioChem-DSS, being developed in the EU KP6-programme AquaTerra, BASIN R3 work package, with the aim to assist in the definition and improvement of management options for the Meuse region. A case study was carried out in a flood plain site of the river Dommel, a tributary to the Meuse. The present T0-situation was established, and the chemical and toxicological effects of sedimentation resulting from flooding events were investigated.
