Abstract

Cilj ovog diplomskog rada bio je pokazati utjecaj izgradnje plaže u uvali Funtana na stanje livada morskih
cvjetnica u uvjetima prirodnog unosa terigenog materijala. Sediment koji se taloži u uvali ispred umjetne
plaže dominantno je terigenog porijekla, uglavnom pjeskovit s različitim primjesama frakcija praha.
Sediment je slabo karbonatan. Muljevita frakcija sedimenta nepovoljno utječe na estetski izgled plaže
ukazujući na konflikt prirodnog funkcioniranja okoliša i antropogenih zahtjeva.... More Rezultati praćenja stanja
okoliša morskog dna livada cvjetnica pokazali su da se nazire pogoršanje. To pogoršanje vjerojatno je
posljedica kombiniranog utjecaja antropogenih aktivnosti i prisutnošću invazivne alge vrste Caulerpa
cylindracea. Less

Abstract (english)

The aim of this research was to examine the impact of beach construction in Funtana Bay on the condition of
seagrass meadows at site of natural input of terrigenous material. The sediment that settles in the bay in front
of the artificial beach is predominantly of terrigenous origin, mostly sandy with various admixtures of silt
fractions. The sediment is weakly carbonate. The muddy fraction of sediment has a negative impact on
aesthetic appearance of the beach gravel, indicating a... More conflict between the natural functioning of the
environment and anthropogenic requirements. The results of monitoring the environmental conditions of the
seagrass meadows showed an environmental deterioration. This deterioration is probably due to the
combined influence of anthropogenic activities and the presence of invasive algae Caulerpa cylindracea. Less
