Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Maritime spatial planning is a new type of sustainable marine governance, stipulated by numerous international documents. It is a cornerstone of the maritime economy (blue growth) and integrated maritime policy (IMP). Maritime spatial planning requires new skills and new types of knowledge. This Special Issue, ‘Marine Technologies and Maritime Spatial Planning’, focuses on all aspects related to marine technologies as the facilitator of blue growth, as well as their coherence and role in maritime spatial planning. Contributors are advised to submit papers that fit into one or more of the subjects indicated below. However, manuscripts that are not directly related to these areas shall also be considered in cases of particular interest to this Special Issue.
