Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Oceans are key contributors for the future of the global economy and are crucial for the balance of Earth's ecosystems. Ocean sustainability requires approaches to manage sea resources and the activities and services they provide. It is clear today that sea resources need healthy ecosystems and sustainable economic activities. Scientific studies can contribute to insuring sustainable solutions for marine-based human activities and for reducing the negative impacts of human actions on an ocean basis, whether they are ocean assets or the projected effects on Earth's ecosystems as a whole. In our Special Issue, we search for studies that allow the promotion of this perspective, allowing a sustainable development of ocean economies and marine-based human activities with impacts on Earth ecosystems.
