Marine ecosystems are becoming increasingly vulnerable to cumulative anthropogenic effects and pressures. Therefore, various methodological approaches and tools have been designed to apply cumulative impact appraisal schemes and better assess the dynamics and interactions among pressures affecting marine ecosystems. This study aims to apply the Spatial Cumulative Assessment of Impact Risk for Management (SCAIRM) tool for the Black Sea coastal waters considering human activities, pressures, and effects on different ecosystem components coupled with one management scenario development for actual and new emerging sectors. According to the SCAIRM, the primary pressure on the marine ecosystem was identified as introducing or spreading non-indigenous species from shipping. Additionally, when considering cumulative impact, activities related to coastal defense and flood protection, particularly beach nourishment works, were found to have the highest impact. This is due to the cumulative scores associated with the physical loss from permanent alteration or removal of seabed substrates, and temporary or reversible physical disturbances to the seabed. The scenario development indicated that after shipping, oil and gas exploitation is anticipated to become the second-highest risk sector for additional impact in the Romanian Black Sea. Additionally, the increased military activities related to the war in Ukraine present escalating risks that must be considered in EBM strategies. The results assess the possible effects of human activities and the associated pressures to direct management toward achieving sustainability, biodiversity protection, and the marine ecosystem’s integrity.

“…The special interest is noticed towards studying theoretical and practical issues about ecomigration in the contemporary stage of Georgian reality. The specific issues about eco-migration in a scientific level is fathomed and perceived by several authors: Trier and Turashvili (2007); Mushkudiani and Getiashvili (2011); Silagadze (2017); Matcharashvili (2008); Kukchishvili (2020); Leyle (2012); Putkaradze (2006); Chumburidze et al (2015). However, in the pointed works, the accent is partly made on studying the politics of eco-migration processes in Georgia.…”

Purpose - The main aim for our research is gaining knowledge of institutional regulation of eco-migration processes in Georgia and, consequently, evaluating the state politics of eco-migration, so as to show off what improving changes can be considered in coming years exactly in the above-mentioned direction. Design/methodology/approach - The research design is based on the institutional approach to studying migration processes. And the empirical analysis was based on the information collected as a result of the study of archival-state documents and interviews in eco-migrant populated areas. The survey was conducted from March 12 to September 25, 2022. Findings - Outcome of our research underlines that the development of institutional provision of eco-migration processes has gone through the different stages during the last centenary in Georgia. As if from the side of government appropriate policy is worked out, however, the research showed that it is necessary to establish a systematic and transparent approach to eco-migration and resettlement by the state, the implementation of which should become the prerogative of both the central government and the municipal administration, which should probably happen in the near future. Originality/value - The scientific novelty of our work is that, for the first time, we studied the historical context of the state policy of eco-migration, the goals of the state policy of eco-migration, the strategy of the state policy of eco-migration and the legal basis of the legal regulation of eco-migration as a process.
