Abstract

The Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD, 2008/56/EC) sets the foundation for community actions in the field of marine environmental protection and a robust and collaborative assessment of the implementation of measures by Member States (MS) of the European Union. In particular, the Commission Decision (EU) 2017/848 lays down criteria and methodological standards on good environmental status (GES) for assessing non-indigenous species (NIS) pressure in marine waters. One of these criteria (i.e. D2C1) aims to minimise and where possible reduce to zero, the number of NIS newly introduced into Europe’s marine waters. To this end, the need for up-to-date data on newly introduced NIS is paramount to enable a quantitative assessment of D2C1. This paper provides a summary of the latest developments on the methodologies for assessing D2C1 and their application on the Black Sea dataset. The analysis identifies common practices and needs; strengthening NIS monitoring would improve the confidence of NIS assessment and allow for investigation of changes in NIS spread, ecological impact and effectiveness of management action. Additional efforts should also be made to ensure access to the monitoring results.

海洋战略框架指令》（MSFD，2008/56/EC）为海洋环境保护领域的社区行动以及对欧盟成员国（MS）措施实施情况进行强有力的协作评估奠定了基础。特别是，欧盟委员会第 2017/848 号决定（EU）规定了用于评估海洋水域非土著物种（NIS）压力的良好环境状况（GES）标准和方法标准。其中一项标准（即 D2C1）旨在将新引入欧洲海洋水域的 NIS 数量降至最低，并在可能的情况下降至零。为此，必须提供有关新引入 NIS 的最新数据，以便对 D2C1 进行定量评估。本文概述了 D2C1 评估方法的最新进展及其在黑海数据集上的应用。分析确定了共同做法和需求；加强 NIS 监测将提高 NIS 评估的可信度，并可调查 NIS 传播、生态影响和管理行动有效性的变化。还应进一步努力确保监测结果的可获取性。

期刊介绍： Marine Policy is the leading journal of ocean policy studies. It offers researchers, analysts and policy makers a unique combination of analyses in the principal social science disciplines relevant to the formulation of marine policy. Major articles are contributed by specialists in marine affairs, including marine economists and marine resource managers, political scientists, marine scientists, international lawyers, geographers and anthropologists. Drawing on their expertise and research, the journal covers: international, regional and national marine policies; institutional arrangements for the management and regulation of marine activities, including fisheries and shipping; conflict resolution; marine pollution and environment; conservation and use of marine resources. Regular features of Marine Policy include research reports, conference reports and reports on current developments to keep readers up-to-date with the latest developments and research in ocean affairs.
