Remissyttrande: Sveriges nationella havsplaner 2018

Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Havsmiljöinstitutet lämnar härmed synpunkter på dokumenten Förslag till Havsplan, Miljökonsekvensbeskrivning (MKB) samt Hållbarhetsbedömning (HB) för havsplanområdena Bottenviken, Östersjön och Västerhavet, utarbetade av Havs- och Vattenmyndigheten (HaV). Havsmiljöinstitutets (och ingående universitets) experter har tolkat sin uppgift bredare än att svara på remissfrågorna om planernas innehåll och kunskapsbas. Institutet kommenterar ur ett brett tvärvetenskapligt perspektiv följande: 1. rollen som akademin och institutet har spelat i havsplaneringen hittills, 2. kust- och havsplanerings¬systemet och processen, samt 3. dokumenten och kunskapsbasen. Här ingår förslag hur allt kunde utvecklas vidare, inklusive Institutets egen roll som länk mellan forskning och förvaltning, både på kortare och längre sikt.

Tidskriftsartikel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Förslagen om att beskatta kemikalier är ett steg i rätt riktning. Den lagstiftning som finns idag är alltför svag, särskilt när det gäller så kallade blandningar av olika kemikalier. Det skriver en grupp forskare på Göteborgs universitet som arbetar med styrning av miljöeffekterna från kemikalier. Olika slags kemikalier hamnar i avloppsvattnet, och skribenterna varnar för just blandningen av olika ämnen, en så kallad cocktaileffekt.

The effects of small-scale coastal development on the eelgrass (Zostera marina L.) distribution along the Swedish west coast – Ecological impact and legal challenges

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Anthropogenic impacts on coastal areas have led to an increased degradation of marine environments globally. Eelgrass ecosystems are particularly susceptible to human induced stressors as they are sensitive to low light conditions and usually grow in shallow protected areas where pressure from coastal development is high. The extensive decline in coverage of eelgrass along the Swedish Northwest coast since the 1980s has largely been attributed to the effects of coastal eutrophication and overfishing. However, the impact on eelgrass from small-scale coastal development (docks and marinas) has never been investigated in this area. The aim of this study was to assess the local and large-scale effect of shading by docks and marinas on eelgrass habitats along the Swedish NW coast and to investigate the decision process behind small-scale exploitation to identify problems with the current legislation, which allows for continued exploitation of eelgrass. Through field assessments of eelgrass around docks and analysis of available data on eelgrass and dock distribution along the coast, the present study demonstrates that shading from docks reduced eelgrass coverage with on average 42e64% under and adjacent to the docks, and that floating docks affected larger areas and caused a much stronger reduction in eelgrass coverage (up to 100% loss) compared to docks elevated on poles (up to 70% reduction in coverage). The total eelgrass area negatively affected by docks and marinas along the NW coast was estimated to approximately 480 ha, an area corresponding to over 7% of the present areal coverage of eelgrass in the region. The analysis of decisions for dock construction showed that eelgrass was generally not assessed or considered in the decision process and that 69e88% of the applications were approved also in areas where eelgrass was present. Furthermore, marine protected areas only marginally reduced the approval of applications in eelgrass habitats. The continued small-scale development along the Swedish NW coast constitutes a significant threat to the already decimated coverage of eelgrass along the coast and changes in the management practices are needed in order to achieve both national and international goals on environmental status.

Adaptive Coastal Planning and the European Union's Water Framework Directive: A Swedish Perspective
- 2005

Ingår i: AMBIO: A Journal of the Human Environment. - 0044-7447. ; 34:2
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The implementation of the EU Water Framework Directive and the achievement of its water quality objectives will to a large degree depend on scientific knowledge about the sources and status of water resources and the effects of mitigative measures. Coastal waters will be of central interest, since the management of whole river basins may be affected if coastal water status is not satisfactory. The Water Directive's general directions on what information the water authorities need and on suitable methods for obtaining such information leave it to the Member states to decide on more precise instructions. Improved legal mechanisms are needed to assist and guide the managers and scientists charged with implementing the directive and achieving its water quality objectives, particularly when faced with insufficient information, flawed knowledge, or changed circumstances. We assess progress in the current process of implementing the Water Directive in Sweden, focussing on coastal waters, and on general problems arising using this type of legal technique.
