“…Indeed, the transformation of expert knowledge into spatial data may be a good solution to cases where a model-based CIA is disregarded due to data gaps. Expert knowledge can be transformed into spatial data through participatory mapping, data interpretation and geo-computing as suggested by Tolvanen, Erkkilä-Välimäki and Nylén (2019). Examples from France and the UK have already shown how fishing activities can be spatially mapped through a collection of the knowledge from fishermen (Trouillet et al, 2019;Enever et al, 2017).…”

“…Las cuencas marinas semicerradas como el Mar Báltico o el Mar Mediterráneo, donde concurren un mayor número de dinámicas físico-naturales y de actividades marítimas a través de las fronteras, son escenarios propicios a iniciativas de cooperación transfronteriza "espacializadas" (Elin Cedergren et al, 2019;Tolvanen et al, 2019). En la MAC-EU sin embargo, tratándose de archipiélagos ultraperiféricos muy separados geográficamente, los conflictos por el uso del espacio son menos evidentes.…”

Legal-administrative borders in the marine environment rarely coincide with the boundaries of marine ecosystems and their ecological processes. Thus, cooperation in the processes of marine spatial planning (MSP) across borders is essential to apply an ecosystem-based approach. This research analyzes the usefulness of the work flow undertaken to promote cross-border cooperation in MSP for the European Macaronesia. Given the vast extension of the sea basin, it is especially important to define the cooperation scope. The planning of cross-border cooperation initiatives must consider the capacity of the different competent authorities to progress in the MSP process as well as the specific stage that each of the parties involved is. The importance of ensuring the engagement of all competent authorities across all work phases has been confirmed, but it is highlighted the relevance of including those authorities competent in foreign affairs. It is recommended that cross-border cooperation efforts go beyond the process strictly related to spatial planning of the maritime sectors and are used as tools to overcome structural limitations and enhance the natural advantages derived from the island’s condition of insularity and outermost regions. Thus, the proposed work process has proven to be useful as a roadmap to promote cross-border cooperation adapted to the legal-administrative singularities and to respond to the physical-natural and socio-economic realities of the case study.

“…Challenges include the underrepresentation of socio-economic information in spatial data, often presented qualitatively and in non-spatial formats [60]. To address these challenges, a participatory mapping approach is proposed [61], collect-ing stakeholders' knowledge and opinions and translating them into spatial data for a comprehensive representation.…”

Recently, there has been a rapid increase in the use of Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) worldwide, partly due to the continued loss of marine biodiversity and habitat. The sustainability of marine resources is threatened in all regions of the world by major events such as climate change, marine pollution, and overfishing, as well as illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing both on the high seas and in country waters. Here, we present a comprehensive review and analysis of how economic information has been applied and used to inform decisions about MSP in British Columbia (BC), Canada, and other similar jurisdictions around the world. This focus for the paper was selected because important gaps remain in the literature in terms of incorporating economic questions into MSP. We first present different definitions of MSP, and then we extract useful lessons from MSP regimes with well-tested decision support tools (DSTs) and use this to guide MSP implementation in BC. Finally, we present and discuss case studies from Australia, South Africa, and Belgium. Our review suggests that applying economic information to support the design and implementation of MSPs would lead to better decisions. This in turn would foster livelihoods, attract finance, increase buy-in, and advance United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 14: Life Below Water, thereby achieving Infinity Fish, i.e., ensuring that ocean benefits flow to humanity forever.
