OCEAN & COASTAL MANAGEMENT

Ocean & Coastal Management is an international journal published 12 times per year dedicated to the study of all aspects of ocean and coastal management at international, national, regional, and local levels.Sustainable development and conservation of ocean and coastal resources requires the insights of a number of monodisciplinary, multidisciplinary as well as integral studies and approaches. The different disciplines may range from the natural and physical sciences to the social sciences, policy analysis, economics, and law.Articles from all relevant disciplines are invited, but all contributions must make clear the explicit link between fundamental concepts and the central improvement of management practice.Comparative studies (e.g. sub-national, cross-national, to other policy areas) are encouraged, as are studies assessing current management approaches. Articles involving analytical approaches, development of theory, and improvement of management practice are especially welcome.Examples of topics covered by the journal include, but are not limited to, the following:Interactions among various ocean and coastal usesResolution of multiple-use conflicts; alternative management regimes and institutional arrangements for integrated management of ocean and coastal areas; governance of resources and uses in Exclusive Economic ZonesDevelopments related to the Law of the Sea Convention and to the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED), and consideration of legal regimes for the conservation and development of ocean resources beyond the limits of national jurisdictionEnvironmental impacts resulting from development of ocean and coastal areas; specific shoreline management issues such as coast protection policies, accelerated sea level rise, public access, waterfront redevelopment, public education and participation, port management, and marine protected areas; resource evaluation for such activities as aquaculture, commercial fisheries, offshore mining, shipping and navigation; energy facilities; coast-dependent industries; marine parks; recreational development and conservationPhysical constraints and natural hazards affecting resource use and development; economic, political, and social constraints; technological solutions to problems of resource demand and supply.Ethical aspects related to management options where human benefits are clearly driving the agenda and the environmental consequences do not get sufficient attention. We thus only accept an ethical discussion when it is strictly related to the above indicated disciplines and study examples and thus not on its own.

《海洋与海岸管理》是一份国际期刊，每年出版12期，致力于研究国际、国家、区域和地方各级海洋与海岸管理的各个方面。海洋和沿海资源的可持续发展和养护需要一些单一学科、多学科以及综合研究和方法的见解。不同的学科可能从自然和物理科学到社会科学、政策分析、经济学和法律。邀请所有相关学科的文章，但所有投稿必须明确基本概念与管理实践的中心改进之间的明确联系。鼓励进行比较研究(例如地方、跨国家和其他政策领域的比较研究)，以及评估目前管理方法的研究。特别欢迎涉及分析方法、理论发展和管理实践改进的文章。期刊所涵盖的主题包括但不限于下列主题:各种海洋和沿海用途之间的相互作用多用途冲突的解决;海洋和沿海地区综合管理的其他管理制度和体制安排;专属经济区资源和使用的治理与《海洋法公约》和联合国环境与发展会议(环发会议)有关的事态发展，以及审议在国家管辖范围以外养护和发展海洋资源的法律制度海洋和沿海地区发展对环境的影响;具体的海岸线管理问题，如海岸保护政策、海平面加速上升、公众通道、海滨重建、公众教育和参与、港口管理和海洋保护区;水产养殖、商业渔业、近海采矿、航运和航海等活动的资源评价;能源设施;沿海产业;海洋公园;康乐发展及保育影响资源利用和开发的物质限制和自然灾害;经济、政治和社会制约;资源供求问题的技术解决方案。与管理选择有关的伦理方面，其中人类利益显然在推动议程，而环境后果没有得到足够的重视。因此，我们只接受与上述所述学科和研究实例严格相关的伦理讨论，而不接受单独的伦理讨论。
