ECOMAGIS Project PN2-32164/2008
Duration: 30 months (01.06.2012-30.06.2015)
Financed by: UEFISCDI (National Authority: UNITATEA EXECUTIVA PENTRU FINANTAREA INVATAMANTULUI SUPERIOR, A CERCETARII
DEZVOLTARII SI INOVARII)
Objectives
The purpose is to: create an operational informational system that can supply meto-hydro-bio- geomorphological data collected near the coastal zone, support at a regional scale decisions.
- Supplement of data and base information to support the management/monitoring effort of the coastal marine system.
- Supplement of information, evaluation, forecast and warning on the ecological state in pilot areas of the coastal zone based on the coastal monitoring form a far/automatic, for the development
of a coastal management based on the needs of the ecosystem
- Distribute the information and the forecast data to the relevant organisms and interest factors of the coastal zone.The creation of a web portal, as a synergetic combination innovation solution
of the data and the information provided by the different sensors, as well as for the data change and information between regional and local interest factors.
Results and Outputs:
The study on the initial conditions of the coastal ecosystem, as well as the projection and expansion of a local/pilot monitoring integrated system, of the impact factors against the ecological
state of the coastal system. The evaluation tendency of evolution of the marine system and of the specific ecological interaction complex process of the North-East basin of the Black Sea. The
evaluation of coastal and marine ecological vulnerability is tied to the actual climate modifications. The harmonization of the editing methods of the data/management optimization and the
information on the hydro-bio-geomorphological marine and coastal processes. Accomplish a system of informational integrated operational that can monitor continuously the coastal zones to develop
a management based on the ecosystem's dynamic. Identify technical solutions and possibilities of coastal reconstruction /rehabilitation, as well as choosing the optimization measures of the
system quality. Develop a guidance, movies and instruction material on the general and specific problems that can be found in the Romanian coastal zone. Accomplish some commonplace scientific
events, press conferences for advertising and information, that are achieved together with the local and regional/national interest factors, distributing the informational material about the
implementing activities in the project, distributing data and reference information to the public sector and to different interest factors from the coastal zone.
