'Although the physical interconnections between the climate system and the ocean are critical to both, the legal implications of these interconnections are only beginning to be explored. This insightful and comprehensive Research Handbook brings together an outstanding group of scholars and will be an essential reference for anyone interested in learning more about the relationship of climate change and ocean law.'
