Options for Delivering Ecosystem-Based Marine Management

Description:

The ODEMM Linkage Framework is a conceptual tool to describe the relationships between the ecological, socio-cultural and economic characteristics of the European marine environment and addresses the integrated approach required by the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD). This linkage framework guidance document presents part of this integrated concept by specifically describing the linkages between the MSFD High Level Objectives, the ecological characteristics of the natural environment, and the ecosystem goods and services provided by these ecological characteristics.
