Coastal Pollution Toolbox

Un Decade Cpt Non Logo


The Coastal Pollution Toolbox is a tool set to study contaminant, nutrient and carbon dynamics in temperate and polar coastal zones. It structures investigations to provide scientifically sound assessments and products to elucidate origin, effects, and mitigation options. The toolbox serves as a knowledge hub and information platform for decision-makers and scientists.

In order to fulfill this purpose tools are distinguished in Science Tools, Synthesis Tools and Management Tools. Under Infotainment and Media, the interested public can get information on pollution research in the form of a variety of outreach and dissemination products.
