Research Collaboration Interest

in the Key Action
of the EC's Fifth Framework Programme

"Sustainable Marine Ecosystems"

(Specific Programme "Preserving the Ecosystem")

 To develop the scientific knowledge on marine processes, ecosystems and interactions:

• effects of physical forces, environmental factors and interactions at the ocean boundaries on ecosystem functioning and natural variability;
• sedimentary systems;
• origin, delivery and cycling of contaminants, key elements and nutrients, and their impact on ecosystem functioning.

 To analyse causes, consequences and possible solutions of the present anthropogenic impact on marine ecosystems:

• effects of anthropogenic activities on ecosystems;

 To develop the capacity for monitoring and managing coastal phenomena

(to alleviate pollution, flooding and erosion, in particular of fragile coastlines and to facilitate land reclamation from the sea):

• long-term coastal morphological changes, interactions between ecology, morphology, erosion and impact of human activities;
• tidal inlets and river mouths dynamics and stability;
• estuarine morphodynamics and estuarine-coastal interaction;
• fate of pollutants;
• natural coastal defence mechanisms, impact assessment of structures on marine environment, adaptation of innovative engineering techniques for minimising disturbances of the ecosystem;
• instrumentation, data management and modelling for effective monitoring.
