Ekološki status livada morske cvjetnice Posidonia oceanica uzduž hrvatske obale

Seagrass Posidonia oceanica and its meadows in Croatian coastal area of the Adriatic Sea have been monitoring for the purpose of Water Frame Directive since 2012. To assess the ecological status of P. oceanica meadows, modified Posidonia oceanica multivariate index (POMI9) has been used. Here we present the ecological status of 45 Posidonia meadows located along the Croatian coast.Thirteen meadows were examined during the monitoring program in 2014, 14 meadows were examined in the period 2012 ‐ 2013 and 18 meadows during the implementation phase of the Directive in 2007. As many as 39 meadows had good and very good ecological status, three had moderate ecological status, two had bad and one had very bad ecological status. Meadows with very bad, bad and moderate ecological status were in vicinity of ports, mariculture facilities or in anchoring sites. According to analyses meadows along the Croatian coast are in satisfying (good and very good)ecological status.
