Abstract:
Marine spatial planning (MSP) seeks to integrate traditionally disconnected oceans activities, management arrangements, and practices through a rational and comprehensive governance system. This article explores the emerging critical literature on MSP, focusing on key elements of MSP engaged by scholars: (1) planning discourse and narrative; (2) ocean economies and equity; (3) online ocean data and new digital ontologies; and (4) new and broad networks of ocean actors. The implications of these elements are then illustrated through a discussion of MSP in the United States. Critical scholars are beginning to go beyond applied or operational critiques of MSP projects to engage the underlying assumptions, practices, and relationships involved in planning. Interrogating MSP with interdisciplinary ideas drawn from critical social science disciplines, such as emerging applications of relational theory at sea, can provide insights into how MSP and other megaprojects both close and open new opportunities for social and environmental well-being.

Abstract:
In this article we examine how Pacific Island Countries (pics) successfully championed a stand-alone Ocean Sustainable Development Goal (sdg) goal at the United Nations (un). We analyse how the un Post-2015 development process provided pics with a unique opportunity to use their experience with collective diplomacy and regional oceans governance to propose this international goal. In this article we establish how pics’ national and regional quest to strengthen their sovereign rights over marine resources motivated their diplomatic efforts for an Ocean sdg. The campaign was a significant political achievement, positioning these Large Ocean Island States (lois) as global ocean guardians. We critically evaluate the effectiveness of the pics’ diplomatic campaign to secure an international commitment for an Ocean sdg. The pics’ advocacy for Goal 14 under Agenda 2030 has enhanced their political effectiveness in the un by improving their recognition by other States as leaders in oceans governance. We suggest their Ocean sdg campaign forms part of a distinct and continuing brand of oceans diplomacy from Oceania.

Abstract:
Oceans are the life support system for our planet and are vital to human health. It is said that half of the oxygen we breathe is generated by our oceans. However, ocean space is becoming more globalized over time. Hence, it is essential for countries to take up a more holistic approach to ending ocean exploitation on the one hand, and also to ensuring a healthy ocean future on the other. Today, maritime cooperation is key to the management of the global commons, and ocean governance is important in establishing maritime connectivity. This article is a qualitative analysis of how the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) will undertake such an initiative to promote diverse and collaborative ocean governance in Asia. The article will analyze whether ASEAN countries are ready to take up the great power game challenge, and simultaneously motivate each other to promote sustainable development of common ocean governance structures and principles in the region. Last but not the least, we will see how ASEAN (Way) will connect with global trends in order to realize its a vision of building a community conscious of its historical ties and cultural heritage to improve the overall ocean health in Southeast Asia.

AbstractCurrent sectoral practices in ocean governance are insufficient to meet the needs of the next decade where the safety and security of navigation in clean and healthy oceans is a priority without compromising the political independence, integrity and security of the nation. The Ocean Law, Policy and Strategic Framework in Malaysia can be said to be a journey of a 1000 miles of which we have currently embarked on a few steps. There are many factors that play an important role in ocean governance such as government commitment, and institutional and human resource capacity. This paper identifies the lacunae in current legal framework and concludes with some pointers for ocean governance purposes to avoid irreversible trends. For the next decade, one way forward to sustainably develop the living resources of the oceans lies in the adoption of an eco-system based approach to oceans management and for the rest of the challenges a cross-sectoral approach may prove effective.

Abstract:
AbstractGlobal warming is bringing rapid change to the Arctic. The melting of sea ice and glaciers is increasing faster than scientists predicted even a year ago. Environmental change is forcing legal and economic developments, which in turn will have serious environmental and social consequences. However, the potential for conflict has been greatly exaggerated. The 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (LOSC) has established the international legal regime governing the division of ocean space, sovereign rights over ocean resources, protection of the marine environment and the conduct of activities in and under the Arctic Ocean. Furthermore, a number of global environmental and maritime conventions apply to the Arctic. All the land territory, with its resources, is subject to national jurisdiction, as are the maritime zones proceeding seawards to the limits set out in the LOSC. While there is no multilateral political organisation with the power to regulate activities or to take legally binding decisions, there is a cooperative mechanism in the Arctic Council. Once all the maritime boundaries in the Arctic are delimited, the exploitation of resources can begin. However, first, precautionary measures should be adopted to ensure that the environment is protected as much as possible from increases in shipping and fishing as well as oil and gas development. This would require the elaboration of a regional seas agreement for the Arctic, incorporating elements of the Arctic Council, that reiterates the general principles in Part XII of the LOSC as well as those in the UN Fish Stocks Agreement, including the precautionary approach and the ecosystem approach.

Abstract:
Abstract The southern hemisphere is dominated by oceanic influences with 80% of its surface area consisting of ocean space. It hosts abundant marine biodiversity, which is under increasing pressure from activities such as fisheries and shipping as well as multiple sources of marine pollution and climate change impacts. The process initiated by the un General Assembly Resolution 69/292 to develop the elements of an international legally binding instrument (ilbi) for conservation and sustainable use of marine biodiversity in areas beyond national jurisdiction has the potential to contribute to a more integrated and cross-sectoral system of oceans governance at a global and regional scale. This article examines key features of the existing global and regional ocean governance framework in the southern hemisphere and how the anticipated ilbi might relate to existing ocean governance frameworks.

Abstract:
Philosophiae Doctor - PhD
Ocean Governance in South Africa has gained momentum over the last decade with the publication of the Green and White Papers on the National Environmental Management of the Ocean in 2012 and 2014, and the promulgation of the Marine Spatial Planning Act in 2019. Parallel to this South Africa developed and implemented the Operation Phakisa Ocean Economy Development Programme and declared a network of twenty Marine Protected Areas. The timing of this study over the last five years allowed the opportunity to undertake a detailed study of the Ocean Governance Policy Development and Implementation as the formulation of the policy and its early implementation unfolded. The Study is primarily based on interpretation of the Green and White Papers as the primary and directed ocean governance policies produced by the Government of South African and the National Department of Environmental Affairs. It places these most recent specific ocean environmental policies in the context of the many other environmental policies that exits in the country.

Abstract:
It is only in recent decades that marine scientific research has begun to reveal the true physical characteristics and resource potential of the open ocean and deep seabed beyond national jurisdiction. A combination of factors such as the depletion of inshore fish stocks and an increase in global maritime trade has led to greater usage of the vast maritime area beyond the territorial sea and exclusive economic zone limits of the coastal states. Human activities in this area of the ocean, which covers approximately 50% of the world’s surface, have expanded to include bioprospecting, exploration for deep seabed minerals, more sophisticated marine scientific research and deep sea tourism. This rise in human activities beyond the offshore zones of coastal states poses actual and potential threats to the physical characteristics and biodiversity of the open ocean and deep sea environments. Arbitrary human intrusions into this largely unexplored marine domain have the potential to harm the intricate links between complex marine ecosystems and to erode components of marine biodiversity. This thesis examines the global and regional provisions which have been put in place to regulate the environmental impacts of human activities that occur beyond national jurisdiction. An analysis of these instruments and their implementation reveals that the current international law framework provides only minimal levels of protection for the marine environment beyond national jurisdiction. It explores several options based on the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (LOSC) and the 1992 Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) to establish a cohesive environmental protection system for the marine environment beyond national jurisdiction.

Abstract:
The legal regime that has come to regulate the conduct of marine scientific research activities has evolved over time, from Admirality law to the Law of the Sea, environmental law, the laws relating to intellectual property rights over data, samples and results, and international trade laws dealing with the import, export and use of genetically modified macro and micro-organisms, compilation of data and trade secrets. Arctic Ocean remains unique and vulnerable. The Arctic Climate Impact Assessment (ACIA, 2005) has documented substantial observational evidence that the sea ice cover is undergoing profound changes including: a steady decrease in extent with larger areas of open water during summer; decreasing coverage of multi-year sea ice in the Central Arctic Ocean; and, thinning of sea ice throughout the Arctic Ocean. These changes have implications for a host of marine uses such as shipping, offshore development, fishing indigenous hunting, tourism, including marine scientific research. Marine scientific research cooperation in the Arctic Ocean is vital for our understanding of basic natural mechanisms. The 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS III) has created a consent regime for coastal states to manage, control, and promote marine scientific research in offshore areas within their national jurisdiction. Arctic states, as a party to the UNCLOS III (except USA), have promulgated laws and regulations on foreign-related marine scientific research conducted within their jurisdictional waters. This work focuses on the legal regime for marine scientific research in general and will explore the present legal governance of Arctic Ocean marine scientific research under the UNCLOS III in particular.

Abstract:
This PhD thesis provides an analysis of how an adaptive governance approach can be applied to address existing and emerging challenges in global governance with a focus on marine, wild-capture fisheries. All the papers share a coupled social-ecological framing while providing diverse but complementary perspectives. Paper I provides a lens through which it is possible understand the types of interactions that link social and ecological components of fisheries systems at the global scale. The key result of this paper was the development of a marine social-ecological framework to guide future modelling and scenario analysis. Paper II describes the process of emergence and spread of new ideas in marine governance using Marine Spatial Planning as an illustrative case study. The study shows how governance innovations may contribute to resolving the mismatches between the scale of ecological processes and the scale of governance of ecosystems. A key finding of the paper is the identification and explanation of the mechanisms by which informal networks of actors are able to influence the emergence and spread of new governance forms from the local to the global scale. Paper III focuses on governance of ocean areas beyond national jurisdiction. The key finding from this paper is the urgent need for existing and emerging governance institutions to build capacity for responding to the challenges facing governance of marine fisheries. These challenges arise from unexpected shifts in markets, technology and society. Paper IV develops a set of four imaginative but plausible ‘radical’ futures for global fisheries drawing on trends compiled from a diverse evidence base. The four resulting narratives aim to act as lenses for engaging debate and deeper reflection on how non-linear changes in technology and society might radically shift the operating context and core assumptions of fisheries governance in the future. These papers make a novel contribution to Sustainability Science through their focus on 1) the conditions for, and mechanisms of emergence of diverse and divergent governance forms, 2) the role of agency in complex actor settings, 3) the need for governance institutions to not only deal with, but also be able to anticipate surprise, and 4) the development of scenarios of marine social-ecological futures using a creative and rigorous narrative approach.

Abstract:
Global Ocean Governance (GOG) är till för att styra och organisera aktörers nyttjande av havens resurser som inte täcks av nationell lagstiftning på ett hållbart sätt. Men efter årtionden av staters förbiseende av regimen för ett hållbart nyttjande som främst FNs Generalförsamling (UNGA) ämnat skapa, har regimen inte fungerat. Även om stater rationellt skulle gynnas av att samarbeta för ett hållbart nyttjande av havens resurser genom ett moratorium av bottentrålfiske i internationellt vatten, har detta inte skett. Det är alltså tydligt att regimen inte fungerar. Frågan är varför - det vill säga hur regimen brister i att säkerställa ett hållbart nyttjande av havens resurser. För att ta reda på hur regimen brister krävs en undersökning av regimens (in)effektivitet.Det finns ingen konsensus mellan regimteoretiker av vad som utgör en (in)effektiv regim och hur en regims effektivitet kan mätas. Denna studies huvudsakliga bidrag till den vetenskapliga forskningen är att bidra med information om vad som utgör en effektiv respektive ineffektiv regim. Denna studies syfte är inte att ta reda på denna fråga, men att genom analysen om hur regimen av ett moratorium av bottentrålfiske i internationellt vatten brister, bidra till den vetenskapliga forskningen utifrån teorikonsumtion.Genom Greenes (1996) kriterier för vad som utgör en (in)effektiv regim har jag undersökt hur regimen, dess skapande institutioner samt regimens omgivning, brister. Ett viktigt resultat av min analys är att UNGA brister på grund av sin försiktighet att styra staters beteende genom en global regim, det vill säga betoningen av dess resolutioner i frågan om ett moratorium mot bottentrålfiske i internationellt vatten är bristfälliga.
The main task of Global Ocean Governance (GOG) is to govern and organize actor’s exploitation of the resources that the seas that are not covered by national jurisdiction provide, in a sustainable manner. But after decades of state’s ignorance towards theregime on a sustainable use of the resources of the seas that the United Nation’s General Assembly (UNGA) has been aiming to create, the regime has shown to be dysfunctional.Even if states would benefit rationally from cooperation for a sustainable use of the resources that the seas provide through a moratorium on bottom trawling of the high seas, such cooperation is not in place. It is clear that the regime is dysfunctional. The question is why – that is, in what way the regime is insufficient in providing a sustainable use of the resources of the high seas. In order to analyse why the regime is flawed, an evaluation of the regime’s (in)efficiency is required.There is no consensus among regime theorists of what makes an (in)effective regime and how a regime’s effectiveness can be measured. The main scientific contribution of this study is to contribute with information on what criteria makes an effective or an ineffective regime. The purpose of this study is not to examine this question per se, but to, through the analysis of how the regime on a moratorium of bottom trawling in the high seas is lacking, provide to the scientific regime discussion through theory consumption.Through Greene’s (1996) criteria on what makes a regime (in)effective, I have analysed how the regime, it’s creator’s, and the surroundings of the regime, fails. A key- finding of my analysis is that UNGA fails because of its caution to steer state’s behaviour through a regime, that is, the stress of its resolutions for a moratorium on bottom trawling in the high seas are lacking.

Abstract:
This work is about the law of the sea as an ecological force. It is about how the law of the sea dominates human relations with the ocean – their beings, lifeways and fluid, phenomenological systems. Despite several decades of the international law of the sea operating its environmental protections, the ocean is in crisis. Law’s inability to effectively respond can be found in ontological foundations, within and outside of law, which normalise exploitation as the default human relation with the seas. From this perspective, the ocean’s ecological crisis is a cultural matter – about relations with the ocean. The tension between considering human material needs alongside those of the ocean surfaces iteratively throughout this thesis. It worries the edges of possibility for a concept of justice that envisages ocean cohabitation. I argue for better ways of knowing and unknowing the seas to ethically imagine and respond to their livability needs. More imaginatively expansive tools are needed to navigate the ocean’s unknowable dimensions; and to know and unknow the ‘we’ that is brought into relation with the seas. By examining these issues and the conceptual tools for exploring them, this work reveals that matters of justice are soaked through with material relations. By dint of material embodiment and vulnerability, humans need to source materials from the ocean to live well. The inalienable relations of violence associated with such provisioning calls for re-imagined ethical relations with the worlds of our prey. This work then is also about being a reluctant predator and taking responsibility for the power and exceptionalism of this status. As an interdisciplinary work of cultural theory, the thesis assembles feminist posthumanist and new materialist approaches, drawing on theorists including Stacy Alaimo, Lorraine Code, Jacques Derrida, Donna Haraway, Melody Jue, Astrida Neimanis, Val Plumwood, Maria Puig de la Bellacasa, Kathryn Yusoff; and the feminist legal theoretical work of Martha Fineman and Anna Grear. The work is transdisciplinary as well, through its empirical and heuristic engagement with international law, marine scientific research, and art practices. Drawing on this rich assembly of theoretical resources and thinking with the seas, I begin to shape the contours of an ecologically modelled, materially relational concept of ocean justice.

This dissertation explores the challenges posed by the materialities of oceans and other extraterritorial spaces to state capture and capital development. Utilizing theories emerging political geographers surrounding vertical and volume components of territory and theoretical engagements with materiality of non-terrestrial spaces, this research seeks to investigate entanglements of the geopolitical and geophysical in constructing and practicing (re)interpretations of territory and sovereignty, power and space. A focus on New Zealand and the South Pacific serves to unravel these cross scalar, dynamic categories of national territory and sovereignty in relation to the emerging political and social constructions of the deep sea, sea level, and air space, as well as the blurred and shifting boundaries of each. Contextualizing historical and regional contingencies of the spatial organizations of maritime space, this dissertation seeks to open up new ocean imaginaries and ontologies by making explicit the material, technical and political constructions that produce offshore territories.

Abstract:
The overarching aim of the work presented here is to contribute to the development of a new interdisciplinary approach to fisheries economics for fisheries governance. it is geographically limited to West Africa but results can be used in other areas where small scale fisheries are active and governance rules are not fully implemented. The disciplinary orientations and conceptual frameworks applied in the research are institutional analysis and governance, as well as the assessment of key drivers of change. The new institutional economic theory provided a sound conceptual frame to analyse fisheries as it brings together economics (theory of the firm and social cost theory), law (convention, contracts, etc.) and sociology (sanctions, taboos, customs, traditions, and codes of conduct). Used on its own it provides a good framework for the analysis of the fish chain and relationships between stakeholders (wealth distribution and equity) and the whole governance of fisheries, coastal zones and oceans. Combined with neo-classical tools such as modelling of fishing activities, it provides a good analytical method to predict effects of management measures on fisher strategies. Furthermore, coupled with an ecological model such as ECOPATH or ECOSIM, its gives a holistic modelling tool (integrating ecology, economic and social dimensions) for the assessment of the full costs and benefits (private and public) of fishing practices and policy policies. The research suggests that the key drivers of change are often hidden and therefore not taken into account while designing management measures. Among shaping drivers, research in West Africa shows that international trade and its rules is shaping the orientation and the functioning of small scale fisheries. Fisher migration, which is directly linked to the trade driving effects, is currently one of the major drivers of change of West African fisheries and the most destabilizing factor. The main results, such as the identification of drivers of change (e.g. international trade, migration), and the integration of social, economic and ecological models are currently used by international institutions such as FAO, UNEP, UNDP and the Group of the ACP countries, regional organisations such as ATLFALCO (Ministerial conference of the African Atlantic countries), the Sub-regional Fishery Commission of seven West African countries and at national level by fishery ministries. The future of fisheries governance in West Africa is strongly linked to a better understanding of small scale fisher strategies and the way they react to fishery management. New research activities on co-management have to be developed in order to switch from a strong centralised fishery management process to a local one where fisher communities play a significant role. Aside from this, work has to be continued to implement the integrated approach into the fishery governance system in West Africa and in other world coastal countries.

Abstract:
With the majority of the oceans lying outside the borders of national jurisdiction, it is not easy to preserve them healthy and secure as the ‘shared responsibility’ is not recognized unambiguously in the global world. The recent turn to the maritime sphere is visible in the UN 2030 Agenda on Sustainable Development that has been widely advocated by the EU. The latter’s commitment to sustainable ocean governance involves action beyond borders, which has a considerable impact on the global maritime sphere as well as on developing countries depending on the seas. On the one hand, the EU’s pursuit of sustainable ocean governance is informed by the norms and values that the organization possesses and tries to promote in its response to global challenges. On the other, the normative principles and the EU’s flowery rhetoric serve as a mean to rationalize Union’s pursuit of self-interest. This study analyses both dimensions of the organization’s engagement in the maritime sphere, considering oceans as a ‘placeful’ environment that has to be treated in the same way as the land is. By exploring the external dimension of EU’s action in the field, the thesis allows to see that EU’s pursuit of sustainable ocean governance has to be understood as a process in which the strategic aims are imbued with genuine moral concerns. Nevertheless, those can sometimes be undermined by the material policy outcomes visible in the West African coastal states such as Mauritania and Senegal.

Abstract:
Abstract With the climate change and the decreasing of Arctic sea ice, Arctic shipping receives increasing attentions from both the industries and academia due to a large amount of uncertainties involved. CEARCTIC (Centre of Excellence for Arctic Shipping and Operations) and CEPOLAR (Centre of Excellence for Scenario-based Risk Management in Polar Waters) projects are therefore established and worked continuously from year 2013 to 2022, focusing on various fields regarding safe Arctic shipping. Extensive research work has been carried out in CEARCTIC and CEPOLAR framework during the multi-year projects towards safe Arctic shipping. The outcomes are mainly published in scientific journal and conference papers, where various subjects, research directions and methods have been focused and applied. Therefore, it is vital to review the research to better understand the status and overall research of Arctic shipping. This paper aims to review and analyze the research papers published in the framework of the projects, from the viewpoint of research topics, research methods, practical purposes, and risk governance so that a general picture of research on the Arctic shipping can be seen from these perspectives. Based on review and analysis, potential gaps and clues for future research directions towards the Arctic shipping can also be identified.

Röschel, Linda, and Barbara Neumann. Summary report on Workshop 1 on governance for ocean-based negative emissions technologies. OceanNETs, June 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.3289/oceannets_d2.3.

Full text
Abstract:
Research undertaken in Task 2.2 identified a range of governance challenges to ocean-based NETs related to the global ocean governance framework, e.g., linked to the transboundary nature of the ocean, potential effects of ocean-based NETs on the ocean’s condition and marine ecosystem services, as well as the many unknowns and uncertainties linked to NET-deployment. The fragmented approaches and frameworks in place to govern the global ocean further complicate comprehensive governance of these emerging technologies. This deliverable presents results from a workshop that explored how oceanbased NETs should be governed to best confront these challenges and integrate international climate targets as well as global goals for ocean and biodiversity conservation, in addition to global ambitions towards sustainable development. The workshop is part of research undertaken by Task 2.2 to assess how ocean-based NETs are addressed by the current global ocean governance framework and develop governance scenarios and recommendations to policy makers for a “good governance” of NETs in the ocean.

Price, Roz. Socio-economic Factors Impacting Marine Protected Areas in the Eastern Tropical Pacific Marine Corridor (CMAR) Region. Institute of Development Studies, June 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/k4d.2022.107.

Full text
Abstract:
This rapid review explores socio-economic and political issues that may affect the effectiveness of the Eastern Tropical Pacific Marine Corridor (CMAR). It specifically focuses on key socioeconomic and governance issues around marine protected areas (MPAs) and exclusive economic zones (EEZs) of Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador and Panama based in the Eastern Tropical Pacific ocean. Research highlights the importance of understanding perceptions and context in environmental governance analyses and practice (Partelow, Jäger & Schlüter, 2021); and MPAs are increasingly recognised as being embedded in social-ecological systems, where human dimensions (e.g., social, economic, cultural, political, and institutional) interact with ecological characteristics (Burbano & Meredith, 2020, p.2). How do you define the effectiveness of an MPA is another key question to consider (but not explored in detail in this review). Bearing in mind that most MPAs have multiple objectives, including non-biological, which highlights the need for the development and adoption of standardised effectiveness metrics beyond biological considerations to measure factors contributing to their success or failure (Giakoumi et al., 2018). For example, there are growing calls for marine conservation success to move beyond area coverage to include a broader set of metrics related to the effective and equitable management of the marine environment (see Bennett et al., 2021). Hence, the more information the better when establishing integrated, well-designed and connected MPAs – for example, the more information on a sea area, the coastal populations and their socio-ecological relationships, the better stressors, systemic impacts and inter-annual variabilities can be identified, and the more effective protection can be developed (Relano, Palomares & Pauly, 2021, p.13).

Johns, William, Sabrina Speich, and Lead Authors. Tropical Atlantic Observing System (TAOS) Review Report. CLIVAR, May 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.36071/clivar.rp.1.2021.

Full text
Abstract:
The Tropical Atlantic Observing System (TAOS) review was proposed by the CLIVAR Atlantic Region Panel (ARP) and has been organized by the CLIVAR ARP in close cooperation with the PIRATA consortium. The review is intended to evaluate scientific progress since the last review and recommend actions to advance sustained observing efforts in the tropical Atlantic. The structure of the report is organized with an executive summary that introduces the main societal drivers and provides a summary of the recommendations and where in the report these are more thoroughly discussed. The core text of the report then proceeds in the following order: (1) a concise review of TAOS societal, scientific and operational drivers; (2) a summary of the current TAOS observing network; (3) recommendations on the evolution of the TAOS; (4) information on the actual TAOS data flow and products and recommendations for their evolution; and (5) recommendations on the future governance of the TAOS. More detailed information on the scientific and operational drivers are provided in the Appendices as well as a rationalization of all observing requirements in terms of Essential Ocean and Climate Variables.
