Co-edited by Brown's own Heather Leslie (Center for Environmental Studies & Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology) and Karen McLeod (Oregon State University & the Communication Partnership for Science and the Sea), it is the first book on the science and practice of marine ecosystem-based management. |
Conventional management approaches cannot meet the challenges faced by ocean and coastal ecosystems today. Consequently, national and international bodies have called for a shift toward more comprehensive ecosystem-based marine management. Synthesizing a vast amount of current knowledge, Ecosystem-Based Management for the Oceans is a comprehensive guide to utilizing this promising new approach.
