Assessing cumulative risks to coastal and marine habitats under management and climate change scenarios: The case of northern Portugal
This study emphasizes the need for cumulative risk-based management of marine and coastal areas amid Blue Growth and climate change. It identifies key ecosystem risk areas by human activities and climate pressures. The findings advocate for precautionary, ecosystem-based policies to maintain resilience and prevent ecological tipping points.
