dc.description.abstract | The world’s coastal ecosystems are among the most complex on Earth, and they
are currently being governed unsustainably, by any definition. Climate change will only
add to this complexity, underscoring the necessity of finding new ways to govern for these
ecosystems’ sustainable use. After reviewing the problems facing coastal ecosystems and
innovations in their governance, this article argues that governance of coastal ecosystems
must move to place-based adaptive management regimes that incorporate innovative and
flexible regulatory mechanisms, such as market-based incentives. | en_US |
