A Sustainable Development Goal for the Ocean and Coasts: Global ocean challenges benefit from regional initiatives supporting globally coordinated solutions

The ocean regulates the global climate, provides humans with natural resources such as food, materials, important substances, and energy, and is essential for international trade and recreational and cultural activities. Together with human development and economic growth, free access to, and availability of, ocean resources and services have exerted strong pressure on marine systems, ranging from overfishing, increasing resource extraction, and alteration of coastal zones to various types of thoughtless pollution. International cooperation and effective governance are required to protect the marine environment and promote the sustainable use of marine resources in such a way that due account can be taken of the environmental values of current generations and the needs of future generations. The high seas deserve particular attention since they suffer from a number of regulatory shortcomings due to the basic structures set out under international law. Against this backdrop, developing and agreeing on a focussed Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) specifically for the Ocean and Coasts could prove to be an essential element to provide guidance and a framework for regional implementation agreements.     

Short and medium term dynamics of the carbon exchange between the Baltic Sea and the North Sea

A detailed analysis of the short and medium term dynamics of the carbon exchange between the Baltic Sea and the North Sea is presented. To quantify the carbon fluxes distinguishing the Baltic and North Sea water masses, the salinity-based End Members (EM) method was successfully applied. The results of 0.63±0.25×10¹² mol C year⁻¹ identify the Baltic Sea as a net source of carbon for the North Sea. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) was found to contribute significantly (22%) to the bulk of exported carbon. The levels determined suggest the hydrology-dependence of the carbon fluxes in the Danish Straits, which stimulates the high variability of carbon fluxes at both interseasonal and interannual scales.

Ocean in peril: Reforming the management of global ocean living resources in areas beyond national jurisdiction

This article presents the outcome of research aimed at assisting governments in meeting their commitments and legal obligations for sustainable fisheries, based on increasing evidence that global fisheries are in crisis. The article assesses the effectiveness of the existing legal and institutional framework for high seas living resources. It focuses on: (1) the role of regional fisheries management organizations (RFMOs); (2) tools for compliance and enforcement to stem illegal fishing; and (3) mechanisms for habitat protection. The article further highlights a variety of options for addressing key weaknesses and gaps in current ocean governance, including United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) resolutions, reforms at the regional level, as well as a possible new legal instrument, with a view to informing international discussions on ways to ensure the sustainable use of high seas resources without compromising the health of the marine environment.     

内蒙古“一湖两海”水域动态监测体系:框架、指标与专题可视化

水资源动态监测是自然资源监测评价的核心内容。自然资源治理从单一要素治理向综合要素治理转型,水资源监测需要从系统化视角切入。基于此,以中国内蒙古自治区“一湖两海”水域为案例区,基于驱动-压力-状态-响应(driving-pressure-status-response,DPSR)模型构建了一种综合水域动态监测体系,形成了水域动态监测框架与指标体系,同时结合专题地图可视化技术对案例区水量、水温、水质和生物多样性的变化趋势进行动态分析和专题图表达,为“一湖两海”水域保护与治理工作提供决策支持。     

基于奇异值分解技术的近海水体硅藻浓度反演模型研究

浮游植物是水体生态系统中的重要初级生产者,其中硅藻贡献海洋初级生产力约40%,因此估算硅藻浓度对了解海洋生物地球化学过程和生态系统演变至关重要。本文基于2016年6月黄渤海和2018年7月黄渤海航次实测色素浓度数据集,利用CHEMTAX软件,获取硅藻浓度信息;之后,结合实测遥感反射率数据,利用奇异值分解方法,构建硅藻浓度反演模型。检验结果表明：模型的决定系数为0.80(p<0.001),平均绝对百分比误差和中值误差分别为58.62%和39.12%,模型适用度较高;经过卫星验证,该模型适用于GOCI(Geostationary Ocean Color Imager)传感器。将模型应用于2020年6月份GOCI月平均数据,其硅藻浓度空间分布趋势与前人研究一致。本研究成果可为近海水体硅藻生物量的遥感估算研究提供技术方法支撑。     

中国近海豆滨螺属Peasiella(腹足纲,滨螺科)两物种的分类学研究

在对历年来在中国近海采集的滨螺科(Littorinidae)贝类标本进行系统整理和研究的过程中,鉴定出隶属于豆滨螺属Peasiella的2个物种:波部豆滨螺Peasiella habei D. ReidMak, 1998和罗豆滨螺Peasiella roepstorffiana Nevill, 1885。标本采自中国山东省及海南省沿海区域,栖息于潮间带及浅海的礁石上。本文对2个物种的贝壳形态、齿舌特征及地理分布等方面进行了详细描述,并对其分类地位以及主要鉴别特征进行了讨论,提出齿舌数量及排列方式即齿式为该属物种区分的重要依据。同时,将张氏马蹄螺Trochus zhangi Dong,2002归于罗豆滨螺Peasiella roepstorffiana Nevill,1885的次异名。
