Description
This publication aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the current knowledge regarding port biodiversity and the biodiversity-related issues that ports face. It draws from scientific literature to spotlight both areas of deficiency and proficiency in biodiversity research within the port ecosystem. The intention is to offer insights that inform port authorities, aid in port management decisions, and guide the planning of research and management initiatives. This is with the ultimate goal of implementing measures that enhance the environmental sustainability of ports.
