Focusing on the Large Marine Ecosystems (LMEs) of the world, this course will introduce the concept and practice of ecosystem-based management. LMEs occupy areas of coastal ocean at least 200 000 km² or greater in size. These coastal waters produce 12.6 trillion USD in ecosystem goods and services annually and are vitally important for billions of people around the globe.

What is the Large Marine Ecosystem Approach?
Introducing the Large Marine Ecosystem approach, ecosystem based management principles, and the five modules. There are three topics covered in this first week - ecosystem-based management, the concept of Large Marine Ecosystems, and the 5-module approach to assessment and management. As well as my lectures, there are also summaries of some key readings and links to other resources. We've included practice quizzes to help you recap and test your understanding of the key concepts as we move through the lessons. There is one graded quiz at the end of the week, which carries marks - but you may take the quiz more than once. At the end of this week, and all the other weeks, Dr Kenneth Sherman will share his insights about the topics we have covered.
The Three Natural Science Modules
In this week, we deal with the three natural science modules within the five module approach.
The Two Human Dimension Modules
We move onto the two human dimensions of the five module approach.
Tools and Actions: the Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis and the Strategic Action Programme

LARGE MARINE ECOSYSTEMS: ASSESSMENT AND MANAGEMENT의 최상위 리뷰
Thank you for everyone works to make this course which gives many information in marine environment
This is really an excellent course particularly those who are interested in marine ecosystem-based management. I will surely recommend it to my friends and colleagues.
a very good tool in helping developing countries like the Philippines create a sustainable law on Marine Protected Areas and its implementation
This is a really good overview of LME management. There is a lot of information presented and therefore useful material for future research and work. Liked it
