description The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) was adopted in Montego Bay, Jamaica, in 1982 following negotiations that took place at the third UN Conference on the Law of the Sea since 1973. UNCLOS, which is often described as the Constitution of the Oceans, provides an internationally agreed framework for navigation, the exploitation of resources, and the conservation of the oceans. Part VII, section 2 of the convention provides for the conservation and management of the living resources of the high seas, and Part XII sets out the obligations of states with regard to the protection and preservation of the environment. Various other international conventions and declarations also stress the need to protect and preserve the oceans.
