The workshop is organised in the framework of the BONUS+ activities funded jointly by ten agencies responsible for marine research in the Baltic Sea countries together with the European Union.
The key speakers come from the project \u201cBalticWay: The potential of currents for environmental management of the Baltic Sea maritime industry,\u201d driven by a consortium of 8 research groups from 5 Baltic Sea countries. The project aims at a substantial decrease of marine-industry-induced environmental risks and impacts. The core objective is to develop a scientific platform for an innovative low-cost technology of environmental management of shipping, offshore, and coastal engineering activities.
The approach makes use of the existence of semi-persistent current patterns that considerably affect the probability of pollution propagation from different open sea areas to the vulnerable areas. For certain regions (areas of reduced risk) this probability is relatively small. A combination of the classical risk analysis with novel mathematical methods is applied to identify the persistence, properties, and potential effect of such areas, and to establish generic criteria for their existence.<\/p>\n
