Marine Habitats in NPT

At present we have insufficient data to give a robust assessment of the resilience and state of nature in the marine habitats of NPT. Attributes such as extent and connectivity can be assumed to be good. However, the 2018 Water Framework Directive interim assessment rated the overall and ecological status of our local coastal water to be moderate and it failed on chemical status. We conclude from this that the condition of our marine habitats is poor. Furthermore, issues such as pollution and invasive non-native species continue to threaten ecosystem resilience. At this point, we can only conclude that the state of nature in marine habitats in NPT is poor.
