EVALUATION OF THE INFLUENCE OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROCESSES IN BORROW PITS ON THE STATE OF INNER PUCK BAY

Journal Title: Biuletyn Instytutu Morskiego - Year 1993, Vol 20, Issue 1

Abstract

The inner Puck Bay is of special interest because at the brake of the seventies a very deep environmental and biocenotic transformation occured in this basin in result of cumulated influence of antropogenic factors. At present, in order to protect the seacoast of the Hel Peninsula, sand is dredged from the Puck Bay. In effect, in the bottom of the bay's coastal zone five borrow pits have been formed. It was expected that in these pits may develop processes which could negatively influence the existing ecosystem of the bay, and become an additional cause of Puck Bay devastation. Results of investigations carried out in the years 1991-1992 proved that such processes do occur and that they might negatively influence the Puck Bay environment.
