| Abstract |
MARine Litter,
Eutrophication and Noise assessment tools -MARLEN
Assessment
tools for waste and noise eutrophication in marine waters
OBJECTIVES:
1.
Creation of tools for assessment of the marine environment through the
application of new technologies and best practices to tackle the lack of marine
data in three main areas of interest:
a)
Detection and classification of marine litter in coastal areas;
b)
Regular monitoring in near real-time marine eutrophication of surface waters;
c) Monitoring of
underwater noise.
2.
Increasing the capacity to assess the state of the environment and personnel
training.
3.
Improving the cooperation between research institutes, regional and local
authorities.
