Abstract:
|
"The concept of regional ocean governance (ROG) is gaining traction in ocean and coastal management as a new way of proactively governing cross-jurisdictional ocean uses, resources, and problems. Current ocean and coastal management activities typically take an issue by issue approach, addressing a single issue without addressing other connected issues within an ecosystem. Though it is not a new concept, ROG is experiencing a surge in interest and support at the national, state, and local levels because it offers a way to bring together a wide range of issues and serves as a vehicle for thinking about and utilizing ecosystem-based management."
