Sažetak
The Adriatic Ionian region is a well-populated and functional area whose progress is closely linked to the Adriatic and Ionian basins. In recent years, the emphasis is mainly on the development of tourism, but there is also great potential for investment in fisheries and aquaculture, marine transportation and green technologies. However, this progress is followed by social, economic and ecological issues. Intensive fishing, aquaculture and coastal development represent threats to the natural habitat, while maritime transport, insufficient wastewater treatment and excessive use of nitrates in agriculture have a great effect on marine environmental safety. The paper presents an early warning system that will ensure real-time evaluation of water quality deviations. The early warning system is based on a network of multiparameter probes installed across the Adriatic Ionian Sea. Based on the obtained data, it is possible to raise awareness about the marine environment in the Adriatic-Ionian area. By engaging general public and widening the sources of information through a mobile application, a database will be created that will serve to create guidelines for improving current regulations for the protection of the marine environment and ensuring the quality of seawater. The ultimate goal is to urge local and regional authorities to raise awareness of marine pollution issues and to encourage proactivity in the pollution prevention.
