“…Atualmente, muitas outras questões podem ser abordadas a partir da perspectiva da CPN, como mudanças climáticas globais, problemas de saúde pública (Giatti, 2015), sustentabilidade (Ravetz, 2006) e gestão costeira (Bremer, 2013;Udovyk & Gilek, 2014).…”

As zonas costeiras e oceânicas proveem benefícios e serviços ecossistêmicos que têm sido cada vez mais ameaçados pelos diversos usos desses ecossistemas. Garantir a sustentabilidade dessas áreas é uma tarefa complexa que demanda diferentes moldes de gestão, mais integradores e ecossistêmicos, e também de produção do conhecimento científico, mais interdisciplinar e aplicado. Nesse sentido, a pesquisa científica interdisciplinar e a ciência pós-normal ref letem uma nova maneira de produzir ciência, entender os ecossistemas marinhos e praticar a gestão a partir de abordagens que promovam um novo relacionamento entre ciência e gestão na pesquisa oceanográfica

This study investigates if and how present institutional structures and interactions between scientifi c assessment and environmental management are suffi cient for implementing the ecosystem approach to management (EAM) in the case of Baltic Sea eutrophication. Concerning governance structures, a number of institutions and policies focus on issues relating to eutrophication. In many cases, the policies are mutually supportive rather than contradictory, as seen, for example, in the case of the mutually supportive BSAP and MSFD. The opposite is true, however, when it comes to the linkages with some other policy areas, in particular regarding agricultural policy, where the EU CAP subsidises intensive agriculture with at best minor consideration of environmental objectives, thereby undermining EAM. Enhanced policy coherence and stricter policies on concrete measures to combat eutrophication seem well needed in order to reach stated environmental objectives. When it comes to assessment-management interactions, the science-policy interface has worked well in periods, but the more specifi c that policies have become, for example, in the BSAP case, the more question marks have been raised about science by affected stakeholders. At present, outright controversies exist, and EAM is far from realised in eutrophication policy in the Baltic Sea region. Besides coping with remaining uncertainties by improving the knowledge on problems and solutions -not least in terms of the socio-economic impacts of eutrophication -it may therefore be valuable to develop venues for improved stakeholder participation.

“…hazardous chemicals) and the use of natural resources (e.g. commercial fi sheries), there are now strong policy ambitions to achieve multisector integration through approaches such as EAM , integrated ecosystem assessments (IEA) and marine spatial planning (MSP) (Douvere 2008 ;Karlsson et al 2011 ;Linke et al 2014 ;Udovyk and Gilek 2014 ;Walther and Möllmann 2014 ). Hence, understanding the processes and outcomes of Baltic Sea environmental governance requires that several multilevel and multi-sector interactions and associated challenges are simultaneously considered.…”

The Baltic Sea ecosystem is subject to a wide array of societal pressures and associated environmental risks (e.g. eutrophication, oil discharges, chemical pollution, overfi shing and invasive alien species). Despite several years of substantial efforts by state and non-state actors, it is still highly unlikely that the regionally agreed environmental objectives of reaching "good environmental status" by 2021 in the HELCOM BSAP (Baltic Sea Action Plan) and by 2020 in the EU Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) will be met. This chapter identifi es key research topics, as well as presents analytical perspectives for analysing the gap between knowledge and action in Baltic Sea environmental governance. It does so by outlining important trends and key challenges associated with Baltic Sea environmental governance, as well as by summarising the scope and results of individual chapters of this interdisciplinary volume. The analysis reveals the development of increasingly complex governance arrangements and the ongoing implementation of the holistic Ecosystem Approach to Management , as two general trends that together contribute to three key challenges associated with (1) regional and cross -sectoral coordination and collaboration , (2) coping with complexity and uncertainty in science-policy interactions and (3) developing communication and knowledge sharing among stakeholder groups . Furthermore, to facilitate analysis of environmental governance opportunities and obstacles both within and across
