Abstract:
States are interested in defining and recognizing shelf rights in order to acquire real and potential continental shelf resources. However, previously there was no agreed method on how to determine the outer boundaries of the shelf. Even after the Truman Proclamation of 1945, states did not use the term "continental shelf" in the same sense. The principles of international law on maritime delimitation at the crossroads of political, legal and technical knowledge play an important role in resolving many disputes in this area. Key words: shelf, legal regime, delimitation, principles Gülzar Fuad qızı Həsənova Kontinental şelfin tarixi və kontinental şelfin delimitasiyasının beynəlxalq hüquqi prinsipləri Xülasə Real və potensial kontinental şelf sərvətlərini əldə etmək məqsədilə dövlətlər şelf hüquqlarını müəyyən edilməsində və tanınmasında maraqlıdırlar.

Abstract:
Abstract The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea has established one legal limit of the continental shelf at 200 M. However, it set out another limit for situations when the extent of the actual or ‘physical’ continental shelf may be greater than 200 M. Despite these distinctions, the concept of the ‘single continental shelf’ has gained traction, particularly in international jurisprudence. This article challenges the idea that there is only a ‘single continental shelf’. The article will first explore the history of the continental shelf regime, before examining the emergence of the concept of a ‘single continental shelf’, how the concept was used and the context of its usage. Then the article will analyse the differences between the inner and outer continental shelf, including the relevance of the principle of natural prolongation. The article will finally answer the question of whether the phrase ‘single continental shelf’ is an accurate term to describe the continental shelf regime.

Abstract:
Actions of the Government of Canada and the governments of Nova Scotia and Newfoundland and Labrador, such as interprovincial delimitation of the continental shelf, exclusive exploitation of continental shelf resources, and exclusion of all or part of the revenues generated by these resources from equalization calculations, create the impression of provincial ownership of the continental shelf. This is not the case. In fact, contrary to widely held views, the continental shelf belongs to no one. International law does not grant coastal states sovereignty over the continental shelf. Instead, it grants sovereign rights to explore and exploit the continental shelf. These rights, born of a process of political compromise, belong to the federal government. Consequently, the most common argument for excluding non-renewable resources from equalization calculations (namely, that they belong to the provinces) cannot apply to continental shelf resources. The Canadian practice regarding oil and gas development in the Atlantic coast continental shelf is, from both a legal and political standpoint, all the more surprising given that the Canadian federation is said to be held together by the principle of equalization.

Abstract:
AbstractThe effect of the continental shelf wave on the flow field over the southern shelf of the Caspian Sea (CS) as the largest enclosed basin of the world, is investigated. Considerable currents with subinertial time scales are observed over the continental shelf in the southern CS. For variations in the surface layer with typical periods of 1 day, local episodic wind events appear to be the driving force. For longer time scales, it is suggested that the observed currents are due to passing continental shelf waves. Measurements over the continental shelf and shelf slope, showing periods of 2–6 days, indicate the presence of such waves. Combined with theory and numerical modeling, the amplitude of the continental shelf wave modes at the coast is assessed from current meter observations. It is demonstrated that the mean drift velocity (the Stokes drift) for long continental shelf waves is determined entirely by the shelf geometry. For the actual shelf mode, it is shown that the associated Stokes drift constitute a nonnegligible mean current along the shelf. This current should be taken into account when assessing the transport of biological material and neutral tracers along the southern coast of the CS.

Abstract:
Abstract Surficial shell accumulations from shallow marine settings are typically averaged over centennial-to-millennial time scales and dominated by specimens that died in the most recent centuries, resulting in strongly right-skewed age-frequency distributions (AFDs). However, AFDs from modern offshore settings (outer shelf and uppermost continental slope) still need to be explored. Using individually dated shells (14C-calibrated amino acid racemization), we compared AFDs along an onshore-offshore gradient across the southern Brazilian shelf, with sites ranging from the inner shelf, shallow-water (< 40 m) to offshore, deep-water (> 100 m) settings. The duration of time averaging is slightly higher in deeper water environments, and the AFD shapes change along the depositional profile. The inner shelf AFDs are strongly right-skewed due to the dominance of shells from the most recent millennia (median age range: 0–3 ka). In contrast, on the outer shelf and the uppermost continental slope, AFDs are symmetrical to left-skewed and dominated by specimens that died following the Last Glacial Maximum (median age range: 15–18 ka). The onshore-offshore changes in the observed properties of AFDs—increased median age and decreased skewness, but only slightly increased temporal mixing—likely reflect changes in sea level and concurrent water depth-related changes in biological productivity. These results suggest that on a passive continental margin subject to post-glacial sea-level changes, the magnitude of time-averaging of shell assemblages is less variable along the depositional profile than shell assemblage ages and the shapes of AFDs.

Abstract:
This article examines the legal significance of the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf in third-party dispute settlement regarding delimitation of the continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles from the territorial sea baselines. Recent international jurisprudence indicates that the relationship between the procedures of the 1982 un Convention on the Law of the Sea involving the Commission and third-party dispute settlement is marked by lack of clarity, bringing procedural and substantive legal challenges in the view of the international judiciary. The procedures involving the Commission may influence a dispute settlement body’s decision to exercise its jurisdiction to delimit continental shelf areas beyond 200 nautical miles. Also in terms of continental shelf entitlement—determining what is legally a “continental shelf” and what is not—the Commission plays a crucial role.

Abstract:
A free-falling instrument was used in coastal waters to measure turbulent velocity fluctuations, temperature, conductivity and pressure from the near surface to 15 cm above the bottom. A probe guard system has been developed that protects the delicate temperature and shear sensors from bottom sediments and minimizes instrument vibrations that would otherwise contaminate the shear signal. From the shear signal the viscous dissipation rate of turbulent kinetic energy is calculated. A new technique is presented for the analysis of shear spectra for dissipation rate calculations. The identification and elimination of noise, both at low and high frequencies, is accomplished by a positive feedback loop during analysis and insures more accurate estimates of the microstructure shear variance, [formula omitted]. The technique improves the confidence in the dissipation rate estimates and results in a noise level of 3.0 X 10⁻⁷ W m⁻³. This noise level is low, considering the structural modifications made to the profiler for near-bottom sampling. The microstructure instrument was used for 670 profiles over the continental shelf west of Vancouver Island in June, 1985. From the dissipation rates near the bottom, within the constant stress layer, values of the bottom stress are calculated. Variations in the bottom stress and the height of the turbulent bottom boundary layer correlate with the diurnal tidal currents that dominate the flow near the bottom. The height of the bottom well mixed layer was found to be nearly independent of the height of the turbulent bottom boundary layer. Over most of the shelf, vertical density variations are attributable to advection rather than local mixing. Near shore, in depths less than 100 m, the tidally driven turbulent bottom boundary layer extends throughout most of the water column during periods of maximum tidal current. Seaward of the 100 m depth contour the current and density measurements above the bottom boundary layer, 40 to 50 m above the bottom, reveal the mean structure of the Tully eddy. Contours of constant density show that the structure is an upwelling centre confined to a region over part of the Juan de Fuca Canyon system. Turbulent mixing within the core of the eddy was found to be weak. Oxygen samples indicate that the wind-induced upwelling brings slope water up the canyons to the shallow (<100 m) banks near shore. Nutrients in the slope water are mixed vertically by the tidally driven bottom boundary layer over these banks. Flux rates for NO₃ of 387 mmole s⁻¹ per metre of coastline are estimated during the strong upwelling conditions in June, 1985. From the turbulent dissipation rate measurements within the bottom boundary layer an estimated lower limit to the decay scale for the K₁ period shelf wave is roughly put at 1100 km. This is in good agreement with the model of Brink (1982a). From the dissipation rate measurements above the bottom boundary layer, a friction decay time scale for the Tully eddy is estimated to be 231 hours. This is supported by the observations of Freeland and Mcintosh (1987, personal communication) that show large, frequent fluctuations in the circulation at periods of ~ 20 to 330 hours. A global dissipation of 4.8 x 10¹⁰ W is estimated for the tides over all continental shelf regions, only 2.5% of the total tidal kinetic energy dissipated by friction in all the oceans and seas.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to clarify the ambiguity in the law relating to the extended continental shelf in Article 76 of the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. Another aim was to study the application of the law in a more focused part of the world, the region of East Asia, and in particular, Malaysia. The study also sought to propose solutions to issues relating to the extended continental shelf. The history of the law relating to the continental shelf, the codification of the law, and the enforcement of the law by the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf is presented. Besides that, Article 76 was also thoroughly discussed in order to identify the problems involved. Besides that, the two biggest issues which determine the outer limits of the continental shelf are examined. These are issues relating to ridges and submarine elevations and the application of the foot of continental slope provisions. The study examined the problems involved with the legal and scientific interface found in Article 76 and addressed them by referring to the legislative history of Article 76, State practice and the practice of the Commission. The continental shelf in the East Asian region is also analysed in order to provide an overview of the continental shelf issues in the region. Special reference to Malaysia is made as a State that has made a submission on its outer limits of the continental shelf. A thorough analysis was made based on the findings made in this study. This study also explored possible solutions to the continental shelf issues discussed.

Abstract:
South Africa has an extensive coastline offshore of which lies the prominent South African continental shelf, a relatively flat extension of the onshore coastal plain. The continental shelf is host to major mineral and petroleum deposits, home to South Africa’s major sea fisheries and full of navigation hazards. Therefore, knowledge of the seafloor features, or bathymetry, of the continental shelf is essential to understanding both its long-term geological evolution and present-day use for resources and navigation. Unfortunately there has been little advancement in our knowledge of the South African continental shelf since the marine studies of the 1970’s and 1980’s which culminated in the “Bathymetry around Southern Africa” map of Dingle et al. (1987). Although bathymetric mapping equipment and techniques have greatly improved during the last few decades, very little high resolution bathymetric data of the South African continental margin are currently available for scientific use, with the majority of the high resolution multi-beam echo-sounding bathymetric surveys being undertaken by privately owned mineral exploration and mining companies (such as De Beers, Alexkor, Petro SA, Petroleum Agency of South Africa, etc.), the Council for Geoscience and the South African Navy and Hydrographic Office. More recent advances in satellite altimetry have had a major impact on ocean floor bathymetric mapping especially in deep ocean areas where the sea surface generally reflects the underlying bathymetry. The Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (DAFF) annually collect single-beam echo-sounding data in order to monitor the abundance of fish species along the South African continental shelf and along with that collect seafloor bathymetry as an additional benefit. The aim of this project is to create a detailed bathymetric map of the continental shelf of South Africa by using digital single-beam echo-sounding data collected by the Fisheries Division of the DAFF over the last two decades. The bathymetric dataset of ±7 million single-beam echo-sounding data points was manually processed, gridded and exported to produce a detailed bathymetric map of the entire South African continental shelf between the Orange River mouth and Kosi Bay complemented by Satellite Altimetry data from the ETOPO 1 – 1 Arc-Minute Global Relief Model (Amante and Eakins 2009) for the deep ocean area adjacent to the continental shelf. The single- beam bathymetric data were collected by the F.R.S. Africana II and F.R.S. Algoa vessels using SIMRAD EKS-38, EK 400, EK 500 and more recently the EK 60 single-beam echo-sounders along with a the SIMRAD ES38B split beam transducer. The West Coast and South Coast margins have the greatest bathymetric detail due to DAFF’s Cape Town base of operations, whilst the East Coast margin is less detailed due to fewer research campaigns in this area. The Bathymetric Map of the South African Continental Margin produced in this thesis reveals several new and more detailed bathymetric features. New bathymetric features include the northern extension of the Olifants Valley submarine canyon, details of the rocky inner shelf related to glacial period sea level lowstands, as well as the coast parallel wave cut terraces and palaeo dune ridges on the middle shelf between Cape Seal and Cape Recife. Other prominent bathymetric features such as Childs Bank, Cape Canyon, Cape Point Valley, the offshore submerged river valleys of the Breede and Gouritz Rivers and the east-west trending, basement anticlinal ridges situated at the southernmost extent of the Agulhas Arch were revealed in greater detail by this study. The underlying geology, physical Oceanography, drainage patterns as well as eustatic sea-level fluctuations can all be linked to the bathymetry of the continental shelf, which is why this thesis examines the influences of each of these factors on the seafloor morphology around the South African coastline.

Abstract:
The main objective of this thesis is to unveil the challenges of RCM as an analysis method for assets on the Norwegian continental shelf. A mixed research method have been used, also known as a semi-quantitative method, with gathering of both quantitative and qualitative data from RCM facilitators with relevant experience. A secondary goal with this thesis has been to develop a systematic approach to those who participate in RCM processes, to evaluate their own processes and RCM tools towards applicable standards to generate increased awareness.The primary motivation for maintenance on the Norwegian continental shelf is risk centered, rather than reliability centered. Nevertheless, it is called for RCM, but not all the capacities of RCM to ensure reliability are utilized. There were found several reasons for why this is so.RCM is by many viewed as a resource consuming method. This have led to many attempts in streamlining the process, which often entails crosscuts that threatens the quality of the analysis.Another reason is the lack of data to perform mathematical and statistical evaluations, which implies that nearly all decisions made in the analysis are based on qualitative experiences rather than neutral data. This is a challenge which is hard to overcome when maintenance concepts, assets and processes to analyze are dynamic and will always be subject for change. That should be a good reason for performing living programs, so that the analysis keep track with the changes. However, this is not the case, which means that data will not be gathered either. There is simply no culture for taking use of mathematical and statistical formulae in order to optimize maintenance.RCM depends to a large degree on the humans performing the analysis. This involves personal knowledge of the RCM methodology, software skills, insight and understanding of the assets and systems under review, and an ability to cooperate in a group while carrying out the analysis.The large tag structures on the Norwegian continental shelf that are analyzed with RCM are complex structures that are challenging to keep overview of when performing the analysis. With such large tag structure, it is hard to take notice if an item has changed its identification because such changes are not necessarily updated with the RCM software. This puts the analysis in risk of omitting certain items for the analysis. Also, it is hard to estimate how long it will take to perform an analysis for large tag structures.A method for self-evaluation of RCM processes have been developed for RCM participants in order to ensure increased awareness on important aspects of the RCM methodology and software in use.The work from this thesis can be continued by testing out the survey which has been developed, in order to make this a tool for RCM participants to increase awareness in the processes and the tools they use when performing the analyses.Research could be done within the standardization of methods and criterions for execution of RCM analysis.Future attention should be put on how one can collect data from maintenance for use in mathematical and statistical formulae to ensure living programs for RCM analyses.

Abstract:
Detailed studies of landslide formation on the continental slope of Near Caucasus part of Black Sea, we have made in the area between the Pshada– Olginka settlements allowed to explore the distribution of landslide formations on the continental slope and to establish their influence on the retreat of the shelf edge. The intensive destruction of shelf edge leads to a reduction in its width, the intense movement of sediments from the shelf and transporting them to the continental slope and deep-sea part in large quantities. The evolution and distribution of landslides are influenced by the geological structure of the navigation area, the width of the shelf, the rate of shoreline destruction and sediment transport from the shelf to the continental slope, underwater topography and slope declination, tectonic and seismic factors. Landslide processes on the coast and continental slope affect the modern coast changes, the bottom topography, the formation of Black Sea deep basins and the expansion of Black Sea. Coastal landslides pose a threat to coastal communities and national economic objects located in areas of high abrasion scarps of terraces, as well as for engineering structures on the continental shelf, continental slope and the seabed.
