Marine Resource Damage Assessment

Marine Resource Damage Assessment (MRDA) is a process used to evaluate the impact of human activities, such as oil spills or chemical discharges, on marine ecosystems. It involves scientific studies to determine the extent of damage to marine life, habitats, and natural resources. The goal is to estimate the loss caused by the incident and inform decisions about restoration efforts. MRDA helps ensure that the responsible parties are held accountable and that affected environments can recover, promoting the health and sustainability of marine ecosystems for future generations.
