<br/><br/> Comparative Ocean Governance examines how the drive to improve governance of the oceans through place-based management - such as marine protected areas, ecosystem-based management, and ocean zoning - can be adapted to a world already experiencing the impacts of climate change. The author discusses the value of and the threats facing the world's oceans, the international law regimes that support place-based management, and the general promotion of place-based management to improve prior ocean governance. She concludes by suggesting three approaches to incorporating climate change adaptation into place-based marine governance, using current examples from around the world.
