Through this review, we highlight how harbours can be used as “in situ laboratories” given the variety of anthropogenic stressors (such as plastic, chemical, sound, light pollution, and invasive species) that can be simultaneously investigated in harbours over long periods of time.

The articles's focus on using Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) to remove drugs and emerging pollutants from wastewater directly relates to several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It particularly aligns with Goal 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation) by addressing the issue of water pollution and promoting the removal of harmful substances from aqueous environments. It also connects with Goal 14 (Life Below Water) and Goal 15 (Life on Land) by aiming to protect ecosystems and aquatic life from the detrimental effects of drug pollution, ultimately contributing to environmental preservation and human well-being.
