Full description Increased human activities in the GBR and Torres Strait regions are expected to increase the sources and diversity of contaminants in their marine environments. Here, we will (i) determine the presence and locations of emerging contaminants based on monitoring data and the types of human activities present, and (ii) prioritize the identified emerging contaminants based on their potential risk to these marine environments. Based on the list of priority emerging contaminants, we will develop and recommend key areas of research to inform management and policy decisions that will maintain and improve the condition of the marine environments in the GBR and Torres Strait regions.
