VIDEO

The video describes the biodiversity peculiar aspects of coastal areas of Upper Adriatic Sea, in details highlighting anthropic pressure factors. Marine biodiversity is also threatened by alien species, which diffusion is amplified by climate change in the Adriatic &Mediterranean Sea. Interviews with ECOMAP project partners present main concrete conservation actions foreseen and realized by the project.

 

​​​​​​The video presents ECOMAP project objectives in terms of management of ports and coastal areas, with the creation of clusters of intelligent port cities and promotion of Innovation Blue Hubs. Already constituted hubs in Marche, Emilia Romagna, Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia Italian Regions and in the County of Split (HR), which work in synergy, to enhance technology transfer, innovation and sustainability processes. Through interviews to actors involved in the project territorial actions and collaborations are presented and explained.

A short tracking shot of the ECOMAP event in Tipicità in blu 2022, with main relators. At the end, the signature of the ECOMAP Memorandum of Adriatic Regional Blue Technology Innovation Hubsby the partners.

This video presents European Green Deal strategy, objectives and commitments to reduce environmental and climatic impact. Blue Economy strategy is described in its actions for the transition to a sustainable blue growth. Local stakeholders involved in ECOMAP project present through interviews concrete actions undertaken towards those EU objectives.

In this video OGS, ECOMAP partner, presents its main research and results inside the project, dealing with the interaction between sea and land. Coastal freshwater springs have been studied, to highlight their importance in pollution monitoring and for the relation between underground waters, both fresh and salty. Enclosed port areas are potentially polluted by man activities, therefore is of primary importance to monitor environmental quality, in order to preserve the outside marine environment. Also, importance of prevention of marine plastic pollution is highlighted and its associated risks presented.

Historical aspects of the cross-border cooperation areas are presented, to introduce the project actions related to submerged archaeology and archaeozoology. Archaeological studies integrate environmental knowledge and contribute to dissemination and cultural heritage promotion. Underwater archaeology, as a new approach for the public, can implement also touristic offer and public involvement.

It is extremely important to behave responsibly toward the sea in accordance to protect all the diversity and marine environment.

A short tracking shot of the ECOMAP Final conference held in Podstrana on the 8th of June 2022. The Conference was focused on presenting the results of the project that contribute to the protection and improvement of the quality of the sea and the marine environment of the marinas and ports involved in the project.
