Beach oriented models for estimating bathing water quality

Ecological Informatics
Traditional monitoring of bathing water quality is based on the detection and enumeration of faecal indicator bacteria (FIB). The process is both time-consuming and costly and also provides information with a delay, limiting the ability to take timely action to protect public health.
