Like many coastal environments throughout the world, the
watersheds of the Adriatic Sea are regions of rapid population
growth and changing land-use patterns. Changes in the coastal
ecosystems of Croatia, Italy, and Slovenia are making the coastal
zone more susceptible to environmental hazards, more costly in
which to live, and of less value to the regional economy. The
overall goal of GLERL's involvement in the region is to cultivate
a regional approach to environmental monitoring and forecasting
in the Northern Adriatic Sea that will help manage coastal
fisheries and tourism.
