Objectives
- To study under controlled laboratory conditions the fate and behavior of selected groups of contaminants through biotic and abiotic degradations, ecotoxicity studies and bioaccumulation and metabolomics studies
- To study the potential ecological impacts of these chemical hazards under realistic scenarios of exposure. A case studies will be carried out: Ebro River-delta-Tarragona coast
- To integrate the results of laboratory, environmental case studies and spatial assessment technologies to prioritize contaminants and perform risk assessment studies in order to measure the potential impact of these compounds in coastal, estuarine and riverine areas.
- To develop guidelines for mitigation measures to be implemented at different levels, useful to stakeholders, policy-makers etc.
- To disseminate the project outputs to the key stakeholders
