Description

Environmental monitoring in the port of Trieste after the mooring of the Ro-Ro vessel Und Adriyatik, as requested by the Harbour Master. Water and sediment samples were collected before and after arrival to assess possible impacts on the marine ecosystem. Chemical analyses, plankton abundance and taxonomic composition, biological toxicity tests, and microbiological studies were performed to detect pollutants and ecological changes.
