Policy-Making

World Data Ocean keeps Policy-Making in one place: one story so far. The section currently leads with “Mapping Ocean Influence: A New Approach for China’s Coastal Regions”. China's coastal influence is not uniform, it clusters, diverges, and diffuses inland through distinct pathways.

Mapping Ocean Influence: A New Approach for China’s Coastal Regions

China's coastal influence is not uniform, it clusters, diverges, and diffuses inland through distinct pathways. Our new framework integrates LDA topic modeling with complex network theory to map these patterns using marine news data, revealing three networked regions and three diffusion modes. This empirical, scalable approach transforms unstructured media into actionable ocean intelligence for spatial planning.
