The problem today is growing tremendously, as the introduction of these species is accelerated by activities related to globalisation, such as trade, transport, travel, and tourism. The marine environment is particularly vulnerable to invasions by alien species due to the various pathways (ballast water, hull fouling, or escapes from aquaculture facilities) and other factors influencing the spread of invasive species, including climate change. This book shows possibilities to further improve the international regime addressing the alien invasive species issue. Apart from the relevant multilateral environmental treaties and soft law instruments, other tools - such as marine protected areas or means to improve compliance including economic instruments - are assessed. The focus of this book is on how to strengthen the existing regime and to promote effective implementation of the relevant provisions. 650 0 $a Marine biodiversity conservation $x Law and legislation. 650 0 $a Introduced aquatic organisms $x Law and legislation. 650 0 $a Exotic marine organisms $x Law and legislation. 650 0 $a Marine biological invasions. 650 7 $a Exotic marine organisms. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00918267 650 7 $a Marine biodiversity conservation $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01430718 650 7 $a Marine biological invasions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01009444 830 0 $a Humanity, earth and law in the third millennium ; $v volume 2. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20200318013253.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=939FEE62462211E9A3F20F6897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
