    This dataset shows where potential interactions of "Posidonia-Banquettes-Dunes" system and coastal/touristic activities exist within 12 selected focus areas along the Northern coasts of Mediterranean Sea. This dataset was compiled by the Hellenic Centre for Marine Research (HCMR, Institute of Oceanography) in collaboration with the partners of the project "POSBEMED: Sustainable management of the systems Posidonia-beaches in the Mediterranean region". The areas with potential conflicts (= red polygons) or without conflicts (= green polygons) locating within the focus area are depicted using the EEA Reference grid of 1x1km.The identification of the areas with potential conflicts was based on an overlay analysis using the following thematic layers: Posidonia beds distribution, presence of Posidonia banquettes, presence of coastal dunes, and presence of coastal/touristic activities produced for the purposes of the POSBEMED project.Coverage is the territory of the following EU countries: Spain, France, Italy, Croatia, Greece, Malta, and Cyprus. The dataset produced for the purposes of POSBEMED project is not exhaustive, and its careful use is recommended.

  • The layer shows type and location of partners involved in EcoSustain project. EcosSustain is a Pilot Project of the biodiversity protection community funded by the Interreg Med Programme.
