    Description / Table of Contents: Neue Forschungsergebnisse zeigen, dass der ungebremste, vom Menschen verursachte Ausstoß von Kohlendioxid schwerwiegende Folgen für die Weltmeere haben wird. Die fortschreitende Erwärmung zum Einen und die Versauerung der Meere zum Anderen bedrohen die Meeresumwelt sowie die durch Überfischung ohnehin schon geschwächten Fischbestände. Durch den Anstieg des Meeresspiegels sind die Küsten zunehmend Überflutungs- und Wirbelsturmrisiken ausgesetzt. Um die Nachteile für Menschen und Ökosysteme in Grenzen zu halten, müssen neue Wege im Küstenschutz beschritten, Meeresschutzgebiete eingerichtet sowie Regelungen für den Umgang mit Flüchtlingen aus gefährdeten Küstengebieten beschlossen werden. Diese Maßnahmen können jedoch nur erfolgreich sein, wenn die globale Erwärmung und die Versauerung der Meere deutlich begrenzt werden. Ein ambitionierter Klimaschutz ist daher eine entscheidende Voraussetzung für erfolgreichen Meeres- und Küstenschutz.

    Notes: The risk through chemical exposure is commonly characterized by ratios of exposure concentrations and effect levels (risk quotients). For chemicals with many different applications such as solvents, however, in addition to the risk quotients of different exposure situations it is useful to determine the corresponding numbers of exposed individuals, that is, not only the magnitude but also the extent of the risk. To this end, the Scenario-Based Risk Assessment (SceBRA) method has been developed that makes use of a large set of scenarios, each of which describes a typical situation regarding handling a solvent or solvent-containing product. The scenarios cover the life-cycle steps of production, distribution, and use of solvents. For each scenario, SceBRA provides the risk quotient, r, and the number of exposed individuals, N. This study investigated seven solvents that are used in large amounts in Switzerland. For each solvent, characteristic distributions of r and N values were calculated, making it possible to compare different solvents with respect to their risk profile. Graphical representations of the r, N data provide an informative way for analyzing and communicating the results of SceBRA.
