Project Summary:
COEXIST will support the new European Integrated Maritime Policy and spatial planning of coastal areas. Case studies, supported by national projects, will be used to provide data for further analysis through the integrated work packages. This will include detailed comparative analyses and integrated models for the regional seas, as well as a synthesis on the European Scale. COEXIST will address interactions on a biological, biogeochemical, and socio-economic level, as well as the governance and legal aspects.
