EEOS courses • Intro to GIS • Biological Oceanography • Legal Foundations of Ecosystem Management • Applied Statistics • Plankton Dynamics • Environmental Model Raster GIS • Chemistry of Natural Waters • Remote Sensing • Climate and Energy Law and Management • Independent Study (Programming for ArcMap) • Coastal Law
theories/principles/concepts/methods of law, policy, planning, ecology • Ecosystem Boundary Definition Processes (Science/Policy) • Ocean Governance • Planning in the Context of Public Resources • Effective Policy Implementation
Research Methods: Impetus Ecosystem Research Apparatus Legal/Policy Research Status Implementation Topics/Issues • Local Authority in Northeast CMSP • Desalination Policy in 3 Coastal States • U.S. StateCoastal and Marine Spatial Planning: Statutory Approaches, Similarities, and Distinctions • Ecosystemic Legal Regime Development In The Gulf Of Maine: Efforts And Impediments • Findings: • Boundaries Matter (Spatial and Temporal) • Budgets Matter • People Matter Questions: Can political boundaries be reconciled with ecosystem boundaries? What role will/can GIS and place based local thinking play in the development of CMSP? How do we create political capital in Ecosystems/Oceans?
Potential Journal Submissions • Title: U.S. StateCoastal and Marine Spatial Planning: Statutory Approaches, Similarities, and Distinctions • brief overview of five leading examples of coastal marine spatial planning (CMSP) at the state level in the U.S.: California, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon, and Rhode Island. • Analysis: impetus, apparatus (legislative control, stakeholder process, benefits/drawbacks), and status • Title: Desalination Policy Development in Three States with an Examination of the Emergence of Seawater Laws and Regulations • California, Florida, and Texas • (1) impetus; (2) policy objective; (3) response; (4) implementation; (5) monitoring; (6) legal development; (7) remaining questions/state conclusions.
