It is fundamental to the future of Chinese Arctic activities to clarify the Arctic maritime rights and in-terests of all concerned countries. To elucidate the current situation, this study conducted quantitative and spatial mapping-based analyses of the exclusive economic zones, outer continental shelf platforms, and ma-rine protected areas claimed by the countries surrounding the Arctic. The results were considered in combi-nation with related legal policies both to predict the developing trends of Arctic maritime rights and interests and to explore their influence on China's future involvement in the Arctic region. The findings of this study could serve as a reference for the strategic planning of future Chinese Arctic activities. The results show that it has a certain regularity on the coastal countries' restriction of the Arctic Ocean activities. It shows a sig-nificant zonal distribution meridionally, where the restriction gradually weakened as the latitude increases. In depth , the control range of the continental shelf is greater than that of the superjacent waters.%明确各国北极海洋权益现状是我国未来北极活动的基础.本研究根据相关文献及图集资料, 基于地图视角, 对环北极国家的专属经济区划界、外大陆架申请、海洋保护区建立等方面进行定量化、空间化的分析, 以此反映北冰洋海洋权益基本情况.结合《联合国海洋法公约》《公海公约》《大陆架公约》《领海及毗连区公约》等相关法律政策, 预测北极海洋权益未来发展趋势并探究其对我国未来北极活动的影响, 为我国未来北极策略制定提供参考.结果表明, 沿岸国家对北冰洋活动的限制程度具有一定的规律性: 在经向上,呈现出显著的纬度地带性, 即限制程度随着纬度增高而逐渐减弱; 在深度方向, 对大陆架的控制范围大于对其上覆水域的控制范围.
