The increased attention has been received mainly due to the sea- level rise, ocean acidification and changing ocean currents caused by climate change. The negative impacts of climate change affect a wide spectrum of law and policy and have direct and indirect implications on various aspects such as: international security, food security, shipping, fisheries, marine and coastal governance etc. According to the IPCC 2018 Report, ocean ecosystems are already experiencing large-scale changes and critical thresholds are expected to be reached at higher levels of global warming. The main aim of this article is to present how the ocean law and climate law respond to the regulatory challenges caused by climate change.}, type={Article}, title={Climate Change as an Ocean Governance Challenge}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/124931/PDF-MASTER/2022-01-PRMO-03.pdf}, doi={10.24425/pm.2022.142865}, keywords={climate change, ocean governance, mitigation, adaptation, climate law, coastal management, ocean law, small islands}, }
