Strategic analysis of value creation and capture in Marine & freshwater biodiversity, mapping where economic returns concentrate and which players are best positioned to benefit.
Examines the Coral Triangle Initiative across 6 Indo-Pacific nations protecting 5.7 million km² of ocean containing 76% of all known coral species. Covers governance challenges, $350M+ in donor funding, and measurable outcomes including 20% fish biomass increases in well-enforced zones.
Tracks ocean health metrics across 200+ marine ecoregions, mapping coral cover loss (14% since 2009), fish stock recovery in managed fisheries (34% rebuilt), and freshwater megafauna population collapse (88% decline). Highlights regional bright spots where protection is working.
Examines the science and policy of aquatic ecosystem protection in depth. Only 8% of the ocean is currently in marine protected areas vs. the 30% target by 2030. Explores what's working in coral reef restoration ($10B+ invested), freshwater rewilding, and deep-sea mining governance gaps.
Covers the state of aquatic biodiversity across oceans, rivers, and wetlands, where populations have declined 83% on average since 1970 according to the Living Planet Index. Explains key drivers, protection frameworks, and the $2.5 trillion ocean economy's dependence on healthy marine ecosystems.
Compares strict marine protected areas with OECMs—including fisheries closures, indigenous managed areas, and military exclusion zones—across biodiversity outcomes, enforcement costs ($3-25/km²/yr), and scalability toward the 30x30 ocean target.
Debunks five persistent myths about aquatic conservation, including the belief that MPAs always harm fishing communities, that freshwater ecosystems are less important than oceans, and that deep-sea mining has minimal biodiversity impact. Draws on evidence from 150+ studies.
A step-by-step guide for assessing aquatic biodiversity dependencies, setting science-based targets for water and ocean impact, and integrating marine risk into supply chain due diligence. Covers TNFD-aligned disclosure for the 40% of global GDP that depends on aquatic ecosystem services.
Analyzes three trends reshaping aquatic conservation: eDNA monitoring adoption (market growing 22% CAGR), the expansion of high-seas governance under the BBNJ Treaty, and corporate water stewardship programs now covering 1.5 billion m³ of freshwater basins.
