Opportunities for targeted, small‐scale law reform in marine and coastal restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Across the globe, law reform is being considered as a mechanism to support, guide, and encourage the upscaling of ecological restoration. While high‐profile examples like the European Nature Restoration Law show the value of large‐scale law reform, this scale of law reform will not be feasible or politically tractable everywhere.

The source‐to‐sea nexus between water and ocean law: An international and EU perspective

Review of European, Comparative &International Environmental Law, EarlyView.
Abstract The source‐to‐sea (S2S) approach provides a systemic framework for analysing the governance of naturally interconnected freshwater and marine ecosystems. This paper examines the extent to which the S2S approach is reflected in key international and EU water and ocean law instruments, as well as the legal and governance implications of said ...

Specialized Committees of International Organizations an Important Source of Organizational Autonomy

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Assigning the preparation of decisions to specialized committees composed of member state representatives is a widespread response to the ‘governor's dilemma’, that is, the tension between competence and control, in international organizations (IOs). We theorize a causal mechanism referring to self‐selection and agenda‐setting effects and show

Effects of sand ripples on the wave-induced seabed instability of the surface seabed

Applied Ocean Research
Wave-induced seabed instability significantly impacts the hydrodynamics of flow-particle interaction near the seabed surface. Previous studies on seabed instability mostly assume a flat seabed, neglecting the influence of sand ripple morphology on wave ...

Encountering coasts: The contested geographies of young people's coastal citizenship[s]

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract This paper examines the contested geographies of young people's citizenship practices and performances in marine and coastal environments. This is important in developing original knowledge of how encounters with new and different coastal places, practices, people, morals and ethics can affect how young people relate meaningfully with[in]

Forecasting Green‐Lipped Mussel Settlement via Feature Engineering and Random Forest Regressor

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
Spat settlement is vital in the life cycle of green‐lipped mussels (Perna canaliculus) and in the aquaculture industry, particularly in New Zealand. Spat, the juvenile stage of mussels, settle on substrates like ropes, initiating their growth into adults.

Potential Impacts of Climate Interventions on Marine Ecosystems

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Rising global temperatures pose significant risks to marine ecosystems, biodiversity, and fisheries. Recent comprehensive assessments suggest that large‐scale mitigation efforts to limit warming are falling short, and all feasible future climate projections, including those that represent optimistic emissions reductions, exceed the Paris ...
