Sažetak
Marine pollution by wastewater is a problem specially pronounced on large cruise ships because the quantity of discharged wastewater is directly related to the number of persons on board. While the most of merchant marine ships have around 20 persons on board, on cruise ships this number is significantly higher and can reach 8000 persons. Available data on cruise ship traffic in the Adriatic are insufficient to evaluate cruise ship wastewater pollution so a case study was made. The purpose of this paper is to present cruise ship traffic trends in the Adriatic Sea and to discuss and analyze empirical data obtained in a case study which included one-year monitoring of cruise ship traffic in the Adriatic Sea and recording of retention times of cruise ships in MARPOL Annex IV areas of limited wastewater discharges.
