| Abstract |
The use of the marine environment has grown rapidly since the 1950s, when historically fisheries and navigation enjoyed near exclusive use. As human uses of marine space have expanded (e.g. marine renewables, oil and gas, aquaculture, etc.), developing frameworks which effectively manage environmental impacts and conflicts between new and existing users have proved to be challenging. While regulation and national and international legislation have improved how environmental impacts such as water quality are managed, conflicts between users pose a different type of challenge, sometimes termed ‘wicked problems’. Challenges faced by decision-makers include how to make trade-offs between wider societal aims and values such as decarbonising energy creation via offshore renewable energy, with the impacts on existing users such as fisheries and navigation, as well as onshore communities. These challenges are difficult to legislate or regulate for; however, recognition of wicked problems can allow the focus to shift towards solutions. Here we examine how fisheries are currently included within marine spatial planning (MSP) processes globally and pose the question of how MSP and fisheries can be integrated to improve ocean governance. |
