WHAT DOES EXCLUSIVE ECONOMIC ZONE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

exclusive economic zone

Exclusive economic zone

An exclusive economic zone is a seazone prescribed by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea over which state has special rights over the exploration and use of marine resources, including energy production from water and wind. It stretches from the baseline out to 200 nautical miles from its coast. In colloquial usage, the term may include the continental shelf. The term does not include either the territorial sea or the continental shelf beyond the 200 n.m. limit. The difference between the territorial sea and the exclusive economic zone is that the first confers full sovereignty over the waters, whereas the second is merely a "sovereign right" which refers to the coastal state's rights below the surface of the sea. The surface waters, as can be seen in the map, are international waters.
