Mer côtière à forte pression anthropique propice au développement d’une gestion intégrée : exemple du bassin oriental de la Manche (Atlantique Nord-Est)
The eastern English Channel: a coastal sea in the northeastern Atlantic, subjected to heavy anthropogenic pressure, propitious for an integrated management plan. An epi-continental sea with a megatidal regime, the English Channel constitutes an important northwestern European crossroads, both in eco...

The eastern English Channel: a coastal sea in the northeastern Atlantic, subjected to heavy anthropogenic pressure, propitious for an integrated management plan. An epi-continental sea with a megatidal regime, the English Channel constitutes an important northwestern European crossroads, both in economic and bio-geographical terms. Its shallow eastern basin (< 50 m) is home to many new maritime activities, including energy production (e.g., thermo-nuclear power plant, offshore wind mill), marine resource exploitation (e.g., aggregate extraction), and increased portuary activity (e.g., greater capacity for container unloading).
