Factors of port activities related to the Drivers-Pressure-State-Impact-Response (DPSIR) model were used, aiming at the establishment of an information support Ecosystem-Based needed for a Port Environmental Management System, applied to this case study. This information support provides a process for the characterization of ecosystems and ecosystem services in the study area; the identification of macro activities present in the port and characterization of the environmental aspects generated by the macro activities of the port; allowed the identification of significant environmental aspects and analysis of the main environmental impacts identified; besides preparing a recommendation proposal of strategies for the port management. The significant environmental aspects for the port of São Francisco do Sul were the discharges and leaks to the water; the effluent releases to marine sediments; the solid waste generation; the interactions that generate structural changes in marine ecosystems; and the interaction with the local port community. We came with suggestions of management tactics towards the specific impacts caused by these aspects, showing how this is a methodology applicable in a concise and practical way, corresponding to Ecosystem-Based Management (EBM) basic principles, to attend the economic, environmental and social sectors from the ecosystem services taking into account human activities and the importance of ecosystems. %K serviços ecossistêmicos %K servicios ecosistémicos %K ecosystem services %K gestão com base ecossistêmica %K gestión basada en ecosistemas %K Ecosystem-based management %K porto de São Francisco do Sul %K Baia de Babitonga %~ Universidad de Cádiz
