Framing in adaptive capacity assessments (i.e., what is highlighted) influences how coastal communities’ adaptive capacity is perceived and understood, carrying profound ethical and political implications for governance. The significance of framing within assessments of adaptive capacity has been acknowledged, yet limited research delves into the dynamics of this process, particularly within coastal-social ecological settings. Through a systematic literature review, we address this knowledge gap by exploring how scholarly assessments frame adaptive capacity in social-ecological systems and analyzing their potential implications in coastal adaptation governance. We focus on adaptive capacity assessments using indicators, given their prominence as a frequently employed methodology by policy makers. Our results reveal that assessments are predominately framed under vulnerability frameworks, focusing on how adaptive capacity moderates the impact of climate-related variability using single-level data from individuals or households. Typically, these assessments rely on attributes related to socio-economic factors, access to assets and livelihood diversity to assess present adaptive capacity, with researchers and their paradigms playing a significant role in framing these assessments. We propose that this prevailing perspective may not support coastal communities in meeting the complex challenges they are facing. By providing this comprehensive review on the scientific framing of adaptive capacity assessments in coastal social-ecological systems, we contribute towards advancing frame-reflective adaptive capacity research.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54698,"journal":{"name":"Ocean & Coastal Management","volume":"259 ","pages":"Article 107455"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142555666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing frameworks in the literature, however, do not focus on the selection of nature-based solutions and environmental and social factors were not considered thoroughly in these frameworks. In this respect, this research aims to develop a decision-support model that guides decision-makers in selecting the most appropriate and sustainable CPSs. The framework was designed in a way that includes a variety of environmental and social factors along with economic and technical aspects. Then, fuzzy AHP and TOPSIS analyses were conducted to determine the relative importance of the selection factors and to select the most appropriate CPS. Factors such as sediment dynamics, geotechnical issues, construction cost, transportation and navigation effects, and technological know-how were among the top-rated factors. TOPSIS analysis results revealed that mangrove forests and artificial reefs were the top two most sustainable CPSs. The proposed framework can minimize the social and environmental impacts of CPSs and expedite the green transition in the coastal environment.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54698,"journal":{"name":"Ocean & Coastal Management","volume":"259 ","pages":"Article 107459"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142555654","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) data from the European Ground Motion Service (EGMS), an InSAR-based service developed under the Copernicus initiative, we evaluated the coastline's exposure to natural and human-induced ground movements, and their potential impacts on the road network, buildings, and population. Utilizing a suite of post-processing tools including ADAfinder, we identified a series of Active Deformation Areas (ADAs) and classified them based on their prevailing movement (vertical or horizontal) and displacement rate. As a result, a dataset consisting of 9010 ADAs spread across Spain's 805 coastal municipalities was generated, with 1916 ADAs affecting roadways and 2596 affecting buildings. Most ADAs exhibited predominant vertical movement, primarily associated with land subsidence, although ADAs exhibiting horizontal movement, mainly linked to landslides, were also significant. The majority of ADAs showed moderate to low displacement rates (&lt;25 mm/yr). We calculated a potential economic impact (in 2021€ values) of €19,428.4 million, with €1716.4 million attributed to the road network and €17,712.0 million to buildings. Additionally, we identified a total of 134,236 people potentially vulnerable to these processes. Results highlight both a higher exposure of Spain's Mediterranean coast compared to the Atlantic coast and a higher exposure of the Canary archipelago compared to the Balearic Islands—with the most vulnerable regions being Andalusia and Region of Murcia. This research underscores the potential of the EGMS for conducting both preliminary population exposure analyses and preventive risk assessments to mitigate road and building damage.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54698,"journal":{"name":"Ocean & Coastal Management","volume":"259 ","pages":"Article 107452"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142555665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Chile, the fishing sector holds significant economic and social importance. The management of specific resources has evolved with the introduction of territorial user rights, which have overlapped with existing traditional and customary fishing communities. Caleta San Pedro (CSP) is one of those traditional communities with a rich legacy dating back to the mid-1800s that since 1997, has operated under a spatial property rights system (AMERB) granted to a neighboring community who hold the official property rights. In this study, we focused on understanding the extent to which property rights, operating alongside customary rules at CSP, can confer social climate resilience. Through the application of face-to face semi-structured questionnaires to 48 fishers, we investigated a range of social factors that are theoretically linked to foster climate resilience in fishing communities (i.e., fisher mobility, resource stewardship). Fishers’ responses were categorized in 23 indicators that relate to the different resilience factors, both at the individual (fisher) and the collective (CSP guild) levels. Our study reveals some mismatches in resilience indicators between the individual and collective scales partly due to differing capacities within the embedded regulatory system (e.g. long-term stewardship is high for the individual fishers however lower at the collective scale). However, our findings also illustrate the potential of the system to promote resilience by involving fishers more extensively in decision-making processes, addressing existing inequalities, and implementing adaptive management strategies. Results can shed some light on how resilience may be fostered in similar customary fishing communities embedded in property rights systems elsewhere.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54698,"journal":{"name":"Ocean & Coastal Management","volume":"259 ","pages":"Article 107435"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142538495","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These challenges affect coastal livelihoods in Satkhira and Khulna districts of Bangladesh. However, IMA adoption in coastal Bangladesh so far remains low. This study explores the factors that influence IMA adoption by extensive smallholder shrimp farmers in Bangladesh using a questionnaire-based survey of 128 farmers. We identified potential drivers of adoption by combining exploratory data analysis and a logit regression analysis. Key findings were that lack of adoption appeared to be mainly attributed to a lack of awareness of IMA (65% of non-adopters were not aware of the existence of IMA), as well as a lack of trust in own required management skills and technical know-how. On the other hand, positive evaluation of IMA benefits and its main use as a risk mitigating strategy were the main enablers. The logit regression analysis indicated that perceived suitability of the pond to integrate IMA and availability of technical assistance were the factors most important to adoption, explaining respectively 30% and 26% of adoption. To enhance adoption of IMA and reduce the need for new pond excavation in mangrove stands, tailored technical training and social learning opportunities are required to increase awareness of IMA and its potential benefits, as well as for effective IMA management. Additionally, the development of new market opportunities for novel mangrove products is vital to foster incentives for adoption. Further work is needed on how to maximize the potential of IMA by thorough study of its various implementation options.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54698,"journal":{"name":"Ocean & Coastal Management","volume":"259 ","pages":"Article 107425"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142529978","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among the different types of marine aquaculture, mussel farming holds the potential to address the dual challenges of delivering food security and providing multiple ESs, emerging as a sustainable human activity and animal protein production. This paper employed a Total Economic Value (TEV) approach to quantify four ESs that were expected to be influenced by Mediterranean mussel, <em>Mytilus galloprovincialis</em>, aquaculture in the Mar Piccolo of Taranto (Ionian Sea), including (i) food provision, (ii) carbon sequestration, (iii) nutrient removal, and (iv) local identity. The findings provided valuable data regarding the multifunctionality of mussel aquaculture in providing non-commodity outputs, supporting policy recommendations. Specifically, the results revealed that mussel aquaculture enhances the flow of regulating services, thus demonstrating the overall sustainability of the practices. Local identity emerged as the greatest contributor to the TEV, due to the activity's longstanding tradition in the study area. Economic values per unit of the assessed ESs were provided for implementation in real-world scenarios at the policy level, enabling the transferability of the study's results in a broader international context. The study advocated for integrating the estimated ESs values into decision-making tools and during marine spatial planning processes to operationalize economic valuations.
