Title
Ocean Health Index (OHI), Goals and Subgoals Scores by LME
Abstract

The Ocean Health Index is comprised of 10 publically-held values and goals for healthy and vibrant marine ecosystems, with health defined as the sustainable delivery of the full range of benefits to people now and in the future.

Module: Ecosystem Health

Category: Ecosystem health state indicator (level 1)

Unit: Scores scaled 0 to 100, with 100 being defined as the optimal, fully-sustainable level of delivery of each goal.

Rationale for inclusion:
The condition, or health, of marine systems is most often defined by policy and stakeholder groups as the status of socio-ecological coupled systems. As such, one needs a comprehensive measure that captures the full range of issues and values that define these coupled systems, and that provides those measures in a quantitative, transparent and repeatable manner.

Interlinkages with other transboundary water systems: This indicator is assessed for both LME and Open Ocean systems.
