Summary: "The last two decates witness a burgeoning interest in the continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles (nm). The number of submissions concerning the delineation of the outer limits of the continental shelf to the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf (CLCS) far exceeds the original anticipation of the Third United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS III), and coastal States increasingly request international courts and tribunals to delimit the continental shelf beyond 200 nm in addition to maritime zones within 200 nm. The Bangladesh/Myanmar case decided by the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS) inaugurated the judicial process of delimiting the continental shelf beyond 200 nm, and in the following years cases concerning the continental shelf beyond 200 nm were launched before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) and Annex VII tribunals under United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) as well"--
