Presented in this special issue studies aims to contribute in order to limit the damage from oil spills and to facilitate containment and cleanup efforts; to optimize the response to oil spills as well as facilitate the preparation of comprehensive maps of most valuable assets as well as prepare joint response plans between neighbouring Kaliningrad Oblast of Russian Federation and Lithuania. The results of common Lithuanian-Russian project “Development of solutions for effective oil spill management in the South-Eastern Baltic” takes an attempt to operationally harmonize and scientifically ground a response capacity for this commonly used area

Regulatory coherence is crucial to effectively respond to the growing pressures that our oceans are facing. Applying the interpretative lens of ocean connectivity to ocean governance can help address the challenges from a material, epistemic, and geopolitical viewpoint. This special issue intends to uncover various understandings of ocean connectivity taking into account the complex biocultural interactions happening in the marine environment. The research aim is divided into two objectives: (1) to explore the various conceptualizations of ocean connectivity; and (2) to provide a critical analysis on how the law (of the sea) considers or disregards ocean connectivity. Our research methodology combines a literature review and a mapping technique that examines the models of connectivity. The mapping technique has been developed by adopting the ‘one-pager approach’, where the authors have been asked to answer two research questions, aligned with our research objectives. We structured the work into an introductory section and three main articles. The understanding of ocean connectivity is key to developing international marine policy and suggesting legal tools for the protection of the marine environment. Moving from this angle towards an understanding of connectivity which includes bio-centric elements, Indigenous cosmo-visions, and anthropocentric connectivity, we identified three models of connectivity and explored their suitability to address the systemic challenges.
