Bioconstructions such as coralligenous outcrops and maërl beds are typical Mediterranean underwater seascapes. Fine-scale knowledge on the distribution of these sensitive habitats is crucial for their effective management conservation. In present study, a thorough review existing spatial datasets showing across Sea was undertaken, highlighting current gaps in knowledge. Predictive modelling then carried out, based environmental predictors, to produce first continuous maps two entire basin....
The aim of this study was to determine and compare differences in physical, chemical sensory post-mortem changes between wild (W) farmed (F) gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata). Ungutted fish were stored ice from harvesting up 20 days freshness indicators analyzed at regular intervals. Proximate composition the samples differed lipid (W = 0.86 ± 0.12; F 4.18 0.16) moisture content 79.12 0.48; 74.50 0.82). Data evaluation described using linear regression models. Sensory schemes for cooked raw...
The aim of this study is to develop a relocatable modelling system able describe the microbial contamination that affects quality coastal bathing waters. Pollution events are mainly triggered by urban sewer outflows during massive rainy events, with relevant negative consequences on marine environment and tourism related activities towns. A finite element hydrodynamic model was applied five areas in Adriatic Sea, which differ for urban, oceanographic morphological conditions. With help...
The aim of this research is to set a successful strategy for engaging citizen marine scientists and obtain reliable data on species. case study work the bearded fireworm Hermodice carunculata, charismatic species spreading from southern Mediterranean probably in relation global warming. To achieve objectives, some emerging technologies (mainly social platforms) were combined with web ecological knowledge (i.e., data, pictures videos about target published WWW non-scientific purposes)...
A single specimen of Pterois cf. miles has been recorded in the eastern middle Adriatic Sea. It was observed near island Vis at a depth 15 m. The location record is further north than previous records and it constitutes northernmost this species Mediterranean Sea to date. based solely on photographs video footage provided by professional underwater photographer.
Intense rainfall can affect bathing water quality, especially in areas with poorly developed sewage systems or combined sewer overflows (CSOs). The aim of this study was to assess the impact precipitation on coastal quality area Split and Kaštela (Adriatic Sea), urban where CSOs were applied. conducted during two seasons, 2020 2021. sampling waters measurement physical/chemical parameters performed every weeks after a event more than 2 mm. not noted nor Kaštela, probably due low amount...

The transfer of communication and knowledge from science research to the general public is a paramount step raise people’s awareness about environmental issues their negative positive impacts on each us. Many projects initiatives seek among citizens, with particular attention young people, importance maintaining clean healthy oceans. With this paper, we aim present successful developed during two Interreg projects, AdSWiM WATERCARE, schools educational organisations local national levels in...
