Study Area Description
- Descriptor
-
The northern and central Adriatic Sea (GSA 17) is a shallow, semi‑enclosed basin extending from the northern Adriatic to an ideal line between the Gargano Promontory (Italy) and Kotor (Montenegro), covering roughly 92,000 km². This area is characterized by strong riverine inputs, relatively low salinity, high primary productivity and pronounced seasonal temperature variability. Depths are generally less than 100 m, except for the Mid‑Adriatic Pit (~260 m). Sedimentary habitats range from sandy‑muddy to sandy‑silty substrates hosting diverse benthic communities. GSA 17 sustains intensive demersal and pelagic fisheries, and in recent years has been subject to increasing effort reductions, seasonal closures and stock‑specific management measures.
