better connected? How can the diferent systems of practices formal, informal, knowledge and beliefs across scales be better integrated? Bridging organizations,
i.e. independent agencies that facilitate multi-party collaboration, are being increasingly examined as a potentially powerful means to achieve these aims. My
proposed research will explore this prospect in the CT context, and is guided by the central question: how can the emergence of bridging organizations contribute to
multi-level ocean governance in the Coral Triangle? Through a comparative case study of bridging organizations in Indonesia, this proposed research will employ
a sequential mixed method approach to critically examine if and how such organizations can “bridge” regional and local-scale conservation eforts i.e. foster
better ‘conservation it’. It will employ social network analysis SNA to examine the network of relationships that link actors involved in conservation activities
across space and time. Moreover, the proposed research will critically examine how bridging organizations can serve as platform to articulate and navigate
trade-ofs social, economic, ecological therein. Research indings will have direct implications for conservation policy and practice for coastal communities
and national governments in the CT. At stake are biodiversity and ecosystems of global importance, and the wellbeing of millions of people who depend on those
ecosystems.

Abstract
The project aims to describe the carbon low through selected tropical seagrass beds and toshow how dependent its function as carbon sink is in relation to the
riverine input of dissolvedand particulate carbon.
Thus three special foci will be investigated which require the measurements in the ield,laboratory and ield experiments as well as modelling techniques:
1 C-Budget of seagrass beds stable isotopes; biomass etc. production measurements.
2 CO2 - Impact on the metabolism and development of seagrass beds laboratory and ieldexperiments.
3 Network analysis of the food web of tropical seagrass beds modelling. The research of the last 3 months has focussed on the results of the cruise with
the“Matahariku” along the eastern Sumatra coast. This cruise started in Palembang and wasalso extended to the estuarine parts of the rivers Musi, Batang Hari,
Indragiri, Siak andRokan: Based on the experience from the irst and second phase of SPICE we know thate.g. the catchment areas of the rivers along the eastern
Sumatra coast reveal a peat landcoverage varying from 40 to 2 and are much less efected by eutrophication compared torivers on Java. We expect an inluence
of this riverine load of peat land rivers on the adjacentcoastal area and hypothesize that this import may decrease the primary production ofseagrass beds and thus
the potential of seagrass beds to act as a CO2 sink. We only foundlarger seagrass beds at the Riau Archipelago, on Sebangka and Lingga Island. We havetherefore
explored seagrass beds that difer in distance to the river mouth or are exposed torivers draining catchment areas of diferent peat land coverage. At the last
cruise we did thework at the Riau Islands in close cooperation with the Faculty of Fishery and Marine ScienceUniversity of Riau UNRI.
