    What if the Strait of Gibraltar became a Seca and NECA?
    Implementing an ECA would substantially improve air quality in the Strait of Gibraltar region. The following reductions in emissions would be achieved if the Strait of Gibraltar became a SECA and NECA: SOx by 94 %, particulate matter by 73.4 % and NOx by 75.8 % (when 100 % of ships are TIER III).
