Description [Targets] |
a) To establish regular monitoring in areas of particular risk (ports, harbours, farms), in order to obtain information on the occurrence of new NIS (invasive) species, and to acquire new knowledge (biology, ecology) on NIS (particularly invasive species) and not just for the Adriatic Sea and the Mediterranean, globally. To establish monitoring and evaluation of the effectiveness of existing measures in relation to the input of NIS (invasive species) as a result of anthropogenic activities in the light of increasing knowledge about these species by means of the proposed interim targets, taking such measures even further, if it is necessary.
b) Developing action plans for the management of key high-risk species.
c) Reducing the risks of introduction associated with international shipping, one of the key pathways of NIS introduction.
d) Reducing the risk of introduction and spread from other key pathways and implementing action plans to control the spread of the high-risk species.
e) Reduce the number of some NIS by commercial fishery. |
