The purpose of environmental monitoring is to verify any impacts on the marine environment resulting from the sediment delivery operations coming from the dredging works of the “Marina Dorica” tourist port (Ancona). For the immersion of sediments in the sea area, the CNR IRBIM has drawn up and executed an accurate post-operam monitoring plan which includes:
– geomorphological surveys of the seabed using MultiBeam Echosounder, Side Scan Sonar and Sub Bottom Profiler
– physical, chemical and ecotoxicological analyzes of sediments
– bioaccumulation and biomarkers in sentinel organisms
– analysis of the benthic community.
This monitoring is part of the perspective of eco-sustainable management of the areas where sediment is collected from port excavation operations.

The Northern Adriatic Sea (NAS) represents an area heavily impacted by maritime traffic, tourism, and resource exploitation. The project aims to create cross-border technical, scientific and institutional cooperation to address the challenge of assessing the impact of underwater environmental noise on marine wildlife and the NAS ecosystem in general, useful for ensuring effective protection of marine biodiversity and ecosystems and developing more sustainable use of marine and coastal resources. The objectives of the project are pursued through the construction of a shared monitoring network for underwater noise assessment, evaluation of acoustic impact on marine biological resources, and development of a planning and management tool.

The LIFE ELIFE project aims to improve the conservation of elasmobranch species (sharks and rays) by promoting better conservation practices in the context of professional fishing in the Mediterranean Sea, through the implementation of pilot and demonstration actions in several Italian ports.
