    • Abstract:
      Maritime infrastructure (dykes, quays, anchorages, etc.), mostly of concrete, is necessary for human activity. The construction of such maritime structures entails the loss of natural habitats and disturbance of the natural life cycle of marine organisms. The Marineff European project aims to take into account the environmental impacts of these infrastructure facilities by proposing biomimetic concrete modules. Thus, breakwater modules and specific habitats for flat oysters have been eco-designed and have undergone environmental monitoring since their immersion in the Channel, in France and England. After two years of monitoring in situ, the Marineff modules show a significant colonisation of fauna and flora. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
    • Abstract:
      Las infraestructuras marítimas ( diques, muelles, fondeaderos, etc. ), en su gran mayoría de hormigón, son necesarias para la actividad humana. La realización de tales construcciones marítimas implica la pérdida de hábitats naturales y la perturbación del ciclo de vida natural de los organismos marinos. El proyecto europeo Marineff pretende minimizar los impactos medioambientales de este tipo de infraestructuras utilizando módulos de hormigón biomiméticos. Por ejemplo, se han ecodiseñado módulos de diques y hábitats específicos para las ostras planas, que son objeto de un seguimiento medioambiental desde su inmersión en el Canal de la Mancha, en Francia y Reino Unido. Tras dos años de seguimiento in situ, los módulos Marineff presentan una colonización importante de fauna y flora. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
