The pressures generated thereof on coastal and marine resources require an integrated planning and management approach. The MSPD (2014/89/EU) forms the legislative framework to regulate maritime activities and ensure a sustainable use of the marine environment. Based on the MSFD (2008/56/EC), the present study provides an overview of the state of the marine environment in Greece and the existing pressures while examining the potential contribution of MSFD knowledge to the MSPD implementation, identifying possible knowledge gaps Citation: Paramana, T.; Karditsa, A.; for the subsequent MSP process phases. It is supported that the MSFD constitutes the best available Milatou, N.; Petrakis, S.; scientific knowledge about the ecosystem and its dynamics, and provides an open access database Megalofonou, P.; Poulos, S.; which should be optimally used in the MSP process.
