Global findings estimate that 80 per cent of marine pollution
originates from land-based sources and is trans-boundary in nature.
These problems persist in spite of a number of legal and policy
initiatives taken to protect the marine environment. This volume
explores the applications and shortcomings of current international
regimes in addressing these issues. The book identifies the sources
and effects of land-based marine pollution and analyzes the
problems of controlling them. Management principles, policy and
regulation are examined at both regional and international level.
The author discusses the strengths and weaknesses of existing
regimes and advances a more effective international legal
framework. The text provides a valuable insight into an important
area of international environmental law. It will be of interest to
researchers and policy-makers working in this area.
