Testing management scenarios for the North Sea ecosystem using qualitative and quantitative models

Erik Olsen et al.

Summary: The complexities of ecosystem-based management require stepwise approaches involving stakeholders to scope key processes, pressures, and impacts. Fuzzy Cognitive Mapping (FCM) presents a qualitative method with a lower skill and data threshold than quantitative models to evaluate marine ecosystems under various impacts. The results of applying FCM models for subregions of the North Sea show the potential of combining FCM and quantitative modelling approaches in integrated ecosystem assessments (IEAs) and future ecosystem-based management advice.

A Finnish regional non-binding MSP approach: What are the consequences for integrating Blue Growth and GES?

Paivi Haapasaari et al.

Summary: The EU Maritime Spatial Planning Directive requires member states to pursue Blue Growth while ensuring good environmental status. However, it does not specify how the member states should arrange their MSP governance, leading to a variety of governance arrangements. This study analyzes the implementation of the MSPD in Finland and identifies conditions that may enable or constrain the integration of Blue Growth and GES. The results suggest that Finland's MSP framework supports the implementation of an ecosystem-based approach, but there are challenges related to the non-binding status of MSP, ambiguity of aims, and the need for economic viability in coastal municipalities.

Summary: Complex systems simulations can support collaborative water planning by allowing stakeholders to jointly understand the effects of land- and water-use decisions on groundwater flow. The participatory modeling progression enables stakeholders to assess policy impacts on groundwater levels through modifying and using increasingly sophisticated models. However, there is a limit to the realism of models, as overly realistic models can hinder planning efforts.

Understanding and evidencing a broader range of 'successes' that can occur at the interface of marine science and policy

C. Cvitanovic et al.

Summary: This study aims to explore the definition of success for organizations working at the marine science-policy interface, and to propose a range of indicators and methods for evidencing success. The research found that success can manifest in various forms across five different scales, including impacts on the organization, policy, science, people, and ecosystems and society. Additionally, a combination of quantitative and qualitative indicators is necessary to fully capture the range of impacts, and factors such as knowledge exchange processes, diverse team composition, and organizational mission and strategy play key roles as enablers of success.
