Description:The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Sea Grant International Marine Science Cooperation Program has been tracking maritime claims and evolving jurisdiction over marine scientific research for the world's coastal countries covering the past 20 years, and offers two new publications on this topic. The world map, "Maritime Claims and Marine Scientific Research Jurisdiction" (WHOI-M-92-001; Ross and Fenwick), illustrates the variety of national maritime claims on an equal area projection. The accompanying monograph provides for each coastal country its Law of the Sea treaty status; approximate marine area; maritime zones claimed and their breadth; maritime boundaries with other coastal countries (both potential and resolved boundaries); jurisdiction and regulations over marine scientific research specifying national legislation and extent of jurisdiction; and the coastal country's history with U.S. research clearance requests, including the number of U.S. requests submitted annually to each country (1972-1990), the outcome of those requests, and anecdotes where available describing any glitch in the process for each clearance request.
