Assigning a monetary value to a landscape improves its importance. It helps to realize the magnitude of the benefits that can be obtained and represents the basis for applying protection and improvement policies. As a case study, we considered Marina del Este, located on the Spanish Southern Mediterranean coast, characterized by the presence of protected natural areas of great value and a rugged coastline beautiful to sailors. This study applies the analytic multicriteria valuation method (AMUVAN) to estimate the landscape’s economic contribution. This method combines the analytic hierarchy process and discounted cash flow analysis. A total of 16 participants were considered, all with knowledge about the marina, which included areas of the marina management, management organizations with competencies in the marina environment, commercial operation, and university professors. They weighted the importance of landscape concerning the rest of the marina activities, use versus non-use values, and the components of the total economic value (TEV) of the landscape within marinas as a natural asset. Results expressed that the landscape may reach a value of around 16.3 million euros. It represents more than 3000% of the value of the marina’s profit and loss account. A detailed analysis of the components of the TEV makes it possible to propose strategies to improve the economic value of the landscape.

The paper is devoted to underlining the important role of monitoring systems in the sustainable development of seaport areas—sensitive ocean–land connections exposed to the harmful effects of multimodal transport. The study concerns the existing monitoring possibilities of the environmental factors and ship traffic near port infrastructure. The main aim of the study is presenting the example of solutions, supporting the sustainable development of port areas, related to the most dangerous ship maneuvering operations carried out near the berths. An indirect method for measuring loads on the seabed from the propeller and thruster jets during ship berthing and an experimental method for predicting the hydrodynamic forces generated on a moored Panamax-size bulk carrier by a similar vessel passing along in shallow water conditions are described in the context of their implementation in monitoring systems. The cloud-based system—installed in the ferry terminal in the Port of Gdynia and developed for monitoring the flow generated by the ship propellers during maneuvers near the berth and warning about the exceedance of allowable pressure on the quay wall—allows, after a two-year operation, to draw the conclusions related to maintenance planning and has an impact on port sustainability. The discussion presented in the paper underlines the influence of monitoring both the environmental elements and hazardous ship operations on the sustainable development of seaport areas.

In the context of global carbon neutrality, ports face significant electricity demand for cargo handling and pressure to reduce carbon emissions. The abundant wind energy resources in port areas make wind power highly promising for port applications. The optimal selection of site and turbine types for wind power systems can effectively reduce emissions in ports, achieving sustainability and improving economic benefits. The practical implementation of wind energy systems considering practical constraints holds significant research significance. Taking Ningbo-Zhoushan Port as an example, this paper analyzes the wind energy resources in the port area and provides an overview of wind power system construction sites. Based on the actual conditions of the port area, this paper comprehensively reviews the site selection of wind turbines from the perspectives of wind resources, specific climates, and noise impacts. With the consideration of engineering preferences, this paper selects performance indicators based on the four mainstream turbine models and proposes a comprehensive weight determination method using the entropy weight method and analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to determine the weights of the indicators. The Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method is then employed to score and compare four turbine plans, enabling the turbine selection process to consider both engineering preferences and objectivity, thereby enhancing the accuracy and reliability of wind turbine planning and achieving significant ecological and economic benefits through benefit analysis.
