Abstract
This book presents a systematization and description of current knowledge on the physical characteristics and oceanography, marine chemistry and pollution, environmental quality, and legal regime for the protection of the marine environment of the Montenegrin coastline in the South Adriatic Sea. The volume is focused on a specific area and research that has wide appeal in the scientific community based on numerous data collected during research and/or on archival data published in scientific papers. One of the important parts of this book is a harmonized implementation of monitoring and methodological proposal, and an assessment of contaminants, including metals, in the marine ecosystem, considering objectives of Water Frame Directive and Marine Strategy Framework Directive. This book is intended for specialists working in the various research fields, from natural sciences (oceanography, chemistry, biology, ecology, maritime) to social sciences, who will provide information on the status of the environment in the Montenegrin coast in the South Adriatic Sea.
