It is currently not possible to identify, at the level of the marine sub-region, significant changes in hydrological processes resulting from anthropogenic effects.

The impact of changes in hydrological processes on the habitats of the water column is not determined.

Change in salinity: It is currently not possible to detect, at the level of the marine sub-region, a modification of the system of salinisation due to anthropogenic impact. At the local level, in the area of influence of small freshwater inputs (typically in the order of km), it is likely that changes may be induced when a change in the hydrological regime of freshwater inputs has been made. However, the lack of reliable long-term measures does not allow for a precise measurement of the size of the measure. Modification of the course: No changes in the current pattern could be identified at present on the basis of the measures. This further illustrates the lack of monitoring of basic oceanographic parameters over time than the stability of a complex system with multiple interactions.

Modification of the heat treatment: By not considering that direct anthropogenic pressure on water temperature, water discharges for the cooling of power plants are in the order of magnitude, the most significant sources of heat change on marine waters. However, water discharges from the three plants on the coast of the marine sub-region give rise to very limited layers of influence in the space (in the order of the kilometre), which do not lead to a known ecological impact.

Modification of the heat treatment: No significant impact of heat release on the marine environment has been identified. Change in salinity: Given the impossibility of demonstrating changes to the scheme of marine salinity that are of direct human-induced origin, it is even more difficult to investigate possible impacts on the ecosystem. Modification of the course: No impact of a change in the current pattern could be identified at present on the basis of the measures.

Speaking note

Modification of the heat treatment: Thermal power generation plants located on the shore (water discharge of cooling circuits) Change in salinity: Human-induced changes to the salinity regime are possible via the deliberate or unintentional modification of the flow of water courses resulting from activities such as agricultural irrigation, channelling of rivers, or the construction of dams (river development). Modification of the course: Coastal developments, water intakes and water discharge, water courses
