Project IC5_I - Habitat dynamics in response to constructional impacts (Jade-Weser-Port, Germany - Tauranga Harbour, New Zealand): the geological approach

In recent years, environmental case studies of highly impacted coastal areas have become more relevant for understanding both short- and long-term human impact on the geo- and biosphere and to predict the effects of such pressures on the ecosystem (Winter and Bartholomä, 2006; van der Veen and Hulscher, 2008). In fact, most human activities – i.e. fisheries, sea-food farming, coastal construction, dredging and dumping operations – are continuously increasing the socio-economic disturbance of such a vulnerable environment (OSPAR, 2009).
