The Governance of Ocean Acidification

Annika’s PhD dissertation focuses on the governance of ocean acidification. In particular, Annika is interested in governance solutions which can address the scientific reality of this complex problem. To this end, she is drawing on natural sciences, political sciences, and law. As part of her thesis, she is conducting case studies on the Ocean Acidification Alliance and the International Maritime Organisation. In both actors she has conducted interviews that inform her research. More generally, Annika is interested in environmental law and law of the sea, especially from an interdisciplinary perspective.
