Cross-cutting activity “Coastal Seas and Society”

The quantitative description of structure, function and susceptibility of marine ecosystems still demands further research. Therefore it is an ongoing challenge to deliver useful information on the base of the state-of-the-art to potential users. The following themes can be supported with scientific findings:

  • Effects of constructions in the coastal system
  • Eutrophication
  • Contaminants
  • Invasive species
  • Simulation of future ecosystem development
