Project Title: Risk assessment of the pollution caused by rivers and discharges
in coastal areas
Project Title in Croatian: Procjena rizika od zagađenja uzrokovanim rijekama i ispustima u priobalju (HR. 3.2.01-0262)
Principal Investigator: Morena Galešić, mag.ing.aedif.
Starting Date: June 30, 2015
Ending Date: September 30, 2016

Project Summary:

The aim of the project is to upgrade research skills of young researchers on Faculty of Civil Engineering, Architecture and Geodesy from Split trough the implementation of challenging research project of tackling the pollution risk assessment driven by rivers and discharges in coastal areas.

The risk of the pollution in the coastal area has profound effect to water quality and subsequently to human health and quality of life. By accomplishing of the project goals, results will obtain new insights about pollution transport which will then be applied in the developed software Coastal Pollution Risk Tool (CPoRT).

The project is fully funded by European Social Fund within the Operational Programme - Human Resources Development.
