Standardised list of pressures in the marine environment

This table is a list of pressures associated with the marine environment and their descriptions. This table was produced from a review of previous attempts to link human activities to marine pressures in order to move towards development of a standardised UK pressure-activities matrix in which pressure-activities links are identified. Coastal and marine ecosystems have historically been subjected to a number of human-induced pressures associated with a variety of marine activities and developments. The mechanisms through which specific human activities impact the marine environment, however, are still poorly understood.

In order to describe links between activities and pressures, it is first necessary to define lists of these two components, in order that relationships can be considered in relation to these standard definitions.

本表列举了与海洋环境相关的压力及其描述。该表基于对先前尝试将人类活动与海洋压力相联系的研究成果，旨在推动构建一个标准化的英国压力-活动矩阵，以识别压力-活动之间的联系。海岸和海洋生态系统长期遭受人类活动引发的多种海洋活动和发展相关的压力。然而，具体人类活动对海洋环境的影响机制仍然知之甚少。为了描述活动与压力之间的联系，首先有必要定义这两类成分的清单，以便在标准定义的框架内考虑它们之间的关系。附加信息来源：http://jncc.defra.gov.uk/page-7136
