Abstract This paper provides an analysis of the topics covered by Coastal Management Journal (CMJ) over the course of its nearly five decades of publication. The analysis looks for trends and changes in the field of Coastal Management across topics and categories (groups of topics) that have been published by CMJ. It identifies geographical locations (at the state, national, regional and international levels) that have been mentioned by papers published in CMJ and identifies changes in geographical representation over time. The research was conducted using a mix of literature review techniques that helped identify emergent topics found within the titles and abstracts of CMJ papers. CMJ was founded within a year of the passage of the 1972 Coastal Zone Management Act. It has been a respected platform within the field of Coastal Management for five decades during which time the concept has been applied at the policy level within the United States and adopted into practice by many nations and intergovernmental organizations around the world. CMJ has also adapted its response to changing coastal management issues and the change in the needs of coastal management practitioners over the course of its publication history. Throughout its 47-year publication history CMJ has significantly increased its international representation and scope and has seen a number of changes in terms of topic representation. These include a substantial increase in the number of Climate Change and Sea Level Rise papers that it has published, as well as an increase in the number of papers it has published that focus on the importance of Marine Protected Areas. The most common topics published within the pages of CMJ are related to Policy, Planning, Protection and Economics, while the largest category of identified topics contains those that are related to Human Dimensions.

Abstract In 2022, the CZMA turned 50, joining other statutes from what has become known as the Environmental Decade in reaching this milestone. This essay, which the Journal presents in two issues, examines the Act’s role in addressing our coast’s most critical challenge—climate change. In the first issue and installment the essay briefly reviews the social and political context in which the Act emerged, lessons learned from other statutes’ 50th anniversary, and the CZMA’s 40th anniversary. The first installment then reviews the CZMA’s Section 309 program. This program encourages each participating state and territory to develop a 5-year strategy to enhance its Coastal Management Program (CMP) to address statutorily identified objectives, one of which most closely pertains to climate related impacts. The essay’s first installment concludes that the CZMA is singularly well positioned at a time when it is vitally needed, the prospect of new legislation is dim, and the current Supreme Court is methodically dismantling the environmental administrative state. The second installment reviews several individual 309 Strategies for 2021–2025 to illustrate how states and territories are using the CZMA to respond in the near term to climate change related impacts.

Abstract The efficacy of global environmental assessments in informing and shaping ocean and coastal management is hampered by recognized gaps in global science endeavours. In order to bridge these gaps, and secure inclusive and equitable knowledge co-construction by ocean stakeholders, the International Panel for Ocean Sustainability (IPOS) is emerging. Here we present the outcomes of the “Bridging Shades of Blue Workshop” held in Spain 2023. A diverse group of Ocean knowledge holders, including policymakers, small-scale fishers, marine social scientists and ocean lawyers gathered to reflect on the key features, challenges, strategies, actors to be involved, as well as pathways to balance power for advancing an inclusive and equitable IPOS. As a result, six foundational dimensions of IPOS’s institutional identity were proposed as IPOS ID cards: 1) Diversifying Ocean Knowledge Systems, 2) Widening the Range of Methods for Ocean Knowledge Production, 3) Informing Decision-making, 4) Engaging at the Interfaces of Knowledge with Decision-making, 5) Communicating, Learning, and Sharing Knowledge, 6) Measuring Progress and Evaluating Success. We conclude by emphasizing IPOS’s potential role as a beacon for inclusive, equitable, and sustainable ocean governance.

Abstract Women’s participation in community-based decision-making in managing natural resources such as fishery is considered crucial to the sustainability of the fishery industry. However, women experience the brunt of inequality in fishery tasks and decision-making despite their crucial contributions. Using survey data (N = 400) from an ethnographic study on Ghanaian female fisherfolk, we examine the factors affecting women’s participation in community-based fishery decision-making. Findings show that while women attended community meetings, only a few held positions in the fishery associations. Whilst education was not a significant factor in women’s community participation, the age of children, women’s ownership of fishery assets as well as psychological characteristics such as trust, interests and gender role attitudes were very crucial. Results further show that network variables such as women’s position in other associations were more important to their participation in community-based fishery decision-making than mere membership in such associations. This study highlights the need for fishery policies aimed at gender equality to move beyond gender structures and economic models toward examining the complexity of factors affecting different aspects of women’s participation in fishery decision-making.

Abstract Whether beach nourishment, an established beach management measure, is justified depends on its benefits and costs. We apply a discrete choice experiment at Waikīkī Beach on Oʻahu with mixed logit and latent class models to evaluate recreationists’ willingness to pay for changes in beach width and water clarity as well as the preferences for the beach as-is. Our preferred specification indicates heterogeneity among subjects, who have distinct preferences for the recreation site. Based on the beach attendance data, the aggregate willingness to pay justifies beach re-nourishment and runoff control measures.

Abstract This paper describes the development of methods for the observation of nocturnal wildlife as a collaborative effort between academia and microenterprises. A number of private firms have for many years been operating tours for wildlife watching on Green Island, and local guides have also worked with wildlife researchers. In accordance with government regulations, researchers and operators were tasked with developing new protocols for observing nocturnal wildlife to promote sustainability. We developed a system to capture images of biofluorescence using a blue-violet light source in which an optical filter is placed over a flashlight. The proposed scheme was shown to capture stunning images without causing harm to any of the species. The concepts of Action Research were employed to the whole innovation process. The relationships established between researchers and operators formed the basis of successful early collaborations. The interaction among local operators, academia, and government was conceptually modeled in six steps: initiation, analysis, design, construction, development, and implementation.

Abstract Coastal erosion and shoreline retreat can be offset by responsible shoreline management through nature-based solutions such as living shorelines. This study describes five roles played by environmental nonprofit organizations in shoreline management and coastal resilience in Virginia by illustrating how these nonprofits support and encourage living shorelines. The five key roles played by environmental nonprofits are: (1) public education about living shorelines, (2) advocacy for living shorelines, (3) technical assistance to design and install living shoreline projects, (4) training for professionals to increase capacity for living shoreline projects, and (5) access to funding. The government regulatory framework primarily addresses the permitting process, leaving it to nonprofit organizations to fulfill various roles beyond the actual permitting process. The implications of greater involvement by the nonprofit sector in shoreline management that encourages and supports living shorelines are discussed.
