Abstract

In this paper, we describe a tool to help holistically understand, research and analyze the relationship between an ecosystem model and the relevant laws. Specifically, a software, MINOE, is being developed to address the needs to identify gaps, overlaps and linkages in the increasingly fragmented set of ocean-related laws. MINOE requires two pieces of information from the users, namely an ecosystem model, and a set of laws and its associated metadata, to perform the analysis. The output from MINOE is a searchable collection of laws organized by ecosystem relationships. Additionally, various visualization modules have been developed to help users synthesize the results for gap and overlap analyses. Two current usage examples are documented to illustrate the potential use of MINOE on legislation and management research.
