If point impacts (see Chaps. 2–6) are clustered together, they create larger scale problems of multiple and dispersed impacts (Fig. 8.1). Inland seas such as the Mediterranean, Chesapeake Bay, the Gulf of Iran, all suffer both. The problems are regional, and the risk must be assessed and controlled by co-operation between agencies. Many estuaries suffer in the same way but on a smaller scale.
