“…The blue module pointed to decision-related issues, such as marine governance ( [42], p. 10), governance of plastic pollution ( [43], p. 91), and visions for ecosystem-based management ( [44], p. 296). The ochre module was connected to the blue module by a single connection, linked to water-quality management at a national level ( [45], p. 49; [46], p. 170).…”

Integrated coastal management (ICM) relies on the inclusion of economic issues within marine ecology. To assess the progress of this integration, we applied topic modelling and network analysis to explore the pertinent literature (583 Isi-WoS, and 5459 Scopus papers). We classified the topics of interest (i.e., concepts, approaches, and sectors) that combined ecological and economic issues within marine science, we aggregated these topics in fields pertinent to ICM, and tracked the knowledge-exchange between these fields by using an information-flow network. Main findings were: (i) the high trans-disciplinary fashion of studies about marine protection and of those about commercial fisheries, (ii) the weak interaction between studies focusing on potential biohazards and those about environmental management, (iii) the isolation, in the overall information-flow, of studies about ecotourism and aquaculture. We included in a roadmap all the integration routes we detected within ICM, based on the combination of ecological and economic issues. We conclude that, to improve integration, ICM should: (i) Exploit marine protection as a bridge between ecological and economic concepts and approaches, and between maritime economy sectors, (ii) employ systems ecology to pursue trans-disciplinary investigations, (iii) complement systems ecology with citizen science by means of inclusive economic initiatives, such as ecotourism.

“…Since the establishment of the evaluation index system for the sustainable development of islands in 2004, many scholars have successively evaluated the sustainable development of islands (Xu et al, 2020). So far, representative evaluation models for the sustainable development include analytic hierarchy process (Zhu and Wang, 2017), ecological footprint model (Fang et al, 2018), variable fuzzy set theory comprehensive evaluation model (Ke et al, 2014), and catastrophe progression method ( Gao et al, 2019). The existing island evaluation methods are not perfect.…”

In recent years, the exploration and sustainable development of islands is getting more and more attention around the world. However, the development of China's islands is somewhat disorder and spatial unbalanced. Therefore, we need to conduct a scientific assessment of the islands in order to fully understand the islands. In this paper, We analyze the possible development path of the islands by evaluating the value of the islands. To be specific, we present an extensive evaluate model design based on analysis of the environmental resources conditions, economic values, and existing problems of the seven typical islands in China. This model is applied to evaluate the sustainability levels and development advantages of seven typical islands. The island’s evaluation results are consistent with the island’s actual development level, which proves that the model is believable. Generally, the more indicators involved in the evaluation model, the more accurate the evaluation result will be. However, numerous indicators will cause two problems. One is that some indicators are highly correlated and make the evaluation results inaccurate. Therefore, it is necessary to remove redundant indicators; the other is that the calculation process will be cumbersome. In this study, we used factor analysis to solve the problems, making the evaluation results more accurate. Meantime, the experiment has proved that the model can simultaneously use multiple types of islands as samples for unified evaluation.
