Integrated Coastal Zone Management is a complex concept that involves various economic, social and environmental factors. There are often conflicting approaches to these factors. Furthermore, when it is decided to implement structural works in the coastal area, it must be taken into account the particularity of the area, the way in which it is developed and the type of work to be done. The Gulf of Mamaia in the Romanian Black Sea coast is the target of structural changes through the implementation of an extensive coastal rehabilitation program. The works made are of “hard” type and aim to change the shore line configuration. From this perspective, the target of the present paper is to make an analysis between the type of work that is being carried out and another kind of "soft" work aiming especially to favor the ecological reconstruction of the area and the approach of an environmentally friendly concept. Thus, we propose to analyze the two types of works with a view to apply the Bruun rule in order to mitigate the effect of the increase of the sea level and to prevent the shoreline retreat.

“…Since the main target of the present work is to study the variability of the wave flux in some hotspot areas of the Black Sea, its results also have some direct industrial applications related to the extraction of the marine energy especially. Furthermore, this extraction of the marine energy might have also useful applications as regards the coastal protection, which represents a very important environmental issue in the Black Sea (see for example [26][27][28]).…”

This paper aims to examine the temporal variation of wave energy flux in the hotspot areas of the Black Sea. For this purpose, a 31-year long-term wave dataset produced by using a three-layered nested modelling system was used. Temporal variations of wave energy were determined at hourly, monthly, seasonal, and yearly basis at seventeen stations. Based on the results obtained, it can be concluded that the stations have very low fluctuations in mean wave power during the day. Mean wave power in the summer months shows a low difference between the stations, but in the winter months, there is a higher difference in wave power between the stations. This difference is more at the stations in the southwestern part of the Black Sea and much lower in the eastern Black Sea stations around Sinop, being in the middle of the southern coast of the Black Sea. In addition, it is concluded that mean wave energy flux presents a decreasing trend at all stations, but maximum wave power offers an increasing trend at most of the stations.

“…The shortest distance (15 km) from the shore to the area where the wave power is between 4000 kW/m and 4500 kW/m is in the southern area of the Romanian coast. The marine space analysis in the context of renewable energy in the Black Sea is considering different sea surfaces all located for MPAs/Protected Marine Areas, shipping lines, port lanes, as well as the prohibited area of extractive industry/areas of oil platforms (Rusu, 2016). The various maps were created using ArcMap tools.…”

"The Romanian coastal zone is strongly impacted by the marine processes, inducing a continuous emergent process nearly the sea-land interface. The sustainable anthropogenic development of the coastal zone is requiring the preservation of the natural landscape, respectively the natural characteristics and processes belonging of its specificity within different regional coastal areas, including marine natural reserves and marine protected areas/MPAs.Thus, the development and preservation of the marine activities within coastal water bodies, as well as coastal buffer areas, with specific measure of coastal protections or erosion control works, had become an activity of foremost interest.In this regard, the new methodologies and tools of the remote sensing and Geographic Information Systems/GIS were applied to support the monitoring of the natural factors within regional coastal and maritime planned areas with intense development within Romanian Exclusive Economic Zone/EEZ. Certain results and positive effects on MSP Directive implementation, based largely on various data, are accessible in the present work, in relation with reduction of the ecological impact of the different socio-economic activities, including coastal and maritime transportation, as well as specifically designation of the coastal and marine locations for the installations of the marine energy convertors. Key-Words: GIS, remote sensing, marine and coastal waves, wave energy, MSP "
