Governance of seabed integrity in the Baltic Seapermagoveu
Seabed integrity depends on the health and wellbeing of benthic habitats found on the seafloor. These habitats include geological and biological components that are constantly pressured by human activities e.g. dredging, bottom trawling.
PERMAGOV analysis of governance arrangements shows that the availability of knowledge is an essential enabler for seabed governance. Missing knowledge about the locations and extent of benthic habitat types, impacts of bottom trawling, cumulative impacts of activities, and the recovery potential of habitats hamper seabed governance.
Setting threshold values can support seabed governance by providing concrete quantified targets for seabed protection and legal depth for the enforcement of the MSFD.
Water pollution occurs when harmful substances contaminate a body of water, making it toxic to humans and the environment.
Causes

Industrial wastewater: Heavy metals, dyes, and other pollutants released into water bodies
Agricultural runoff: Fertilizers, pesticides, and salt
