Horizon Scan of Pressures on Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdiction

Marine Areas Beyond the National Jurisdiction (ABNJ) occupy approximately 64 per cent of the surface of the Earth’s ocean (Global Ocean Commission, 2014) and 95 per cent of its volume (Katona, 2014). ABNJ comprise the “High Seas”, the water column beyond Exclusive Economic Zones and the seabed ...
