综合评估和海洋空间规划正在成为评估和管理人类海上活动的主要驱动力。要取得成功,两者都需要了解人类活动造成的压力分布。2004年,我们使用了英国沃茨英格兰和威尔士部分主要人类活动的空间数据,以评估多种人类活动对海底的直接物理压力。压力被估计为每项活动的空间范围;强度,寿命和压力产生的影响没有考虑在内。空间范围的估计被分配到三个压力类别,细分为六个压力类型。我们估计六种压力类型中有四种受到影响
Integrated assessments (IA) and marine spatial planning (MSP) are becoming major drivers for the assessment and management of human activities at sea. To be successful, both require an understanding of the distribution of the pressures caused by human activities. We used spatial data for the major human activities operating in the England and Wales sector of UK waters in 2004 to provide an assessment of direct, physical pressure on the seabed from multiple human activities. Pressure was estimated as the spatial extent of each of the activities; the intensity, longevity, and impacts arising from the pressures were not considered. Estimates of spatial extent were assigned to three pressure categories, subdivided into six pressure types. We estimated that four of the six pressure types affected
