Abstract

Marine fisheries around the world remain seriously threatened from fishing overcapacity plus a range of environmental problems. As a result, the rising demand for fish products is largely being supported from increased aquaculture output. Changes in the sourcing of fish will continue to cause significant spatially variable effects on the marine and other aquatic environments, effects that are best managed through the application of geographic information systems (GIS) and remote sensing methods. Furthermore, changes need to take into account wider approaches to addressing aquatic problems, i.e. via marine spatial planning and/or ecosystem approaches to both fisheries and to aquaculture. This publication is an essential guide to understanding the role of spatial analysis in the sustainable development and management of fisheries and aquaculture. The publication is an easy-to-understand publication that emphasizes the fundamental skills and processes associated with geographic information systems (GIS) and remote sensing. The first chapter initially puts the array of spatially related problems into perspective and discusses the earlier applications of GIS and remote sensing. Chapters, 2, 3 and 4 outline what are considered to be the basics on which GIS can function, i.e. hardware and software; spatial data; and how GIS systems themselves are best implemented. Chapter 5 looks at preparing the data for GIS use and Chapter 6 explores what remote sensing consists of and the main purposes for its use. Chapter 7 discusses the functional tools and techniques offered by typical GIS software packages. Chapters 8, 9 and 10 examine respectively, the current issues and status, including extensive case studies, of the application of GIS and remote sensing to aquaculture, to inland fisheries and to marine fisheries. The final two chapters examine the emerging thematic issues that will be faced by fisheries and aquaculture in the near future, and then provides useful clues as to how challenges in accomplishing GIS work might best be overcome. The paper concludes with a series of recommendations underlining the paramount need to recognize that it is mainly through the application of a spatial perspective and approach that problems in fisheries and aquaculture will be better addressed. This technical paper is an update of previous FAO publications. This publication is organized in two parts to inform readers who may be at varying levels of familiarity with GIS and remote sensing. One part is a summary and is addressed to administrators and managers, while the other is the full document and is intended for professionals in technical fields and for university students and teachers. The latter part is available on a CD-ROM accompanying the printed part of this publication --

Abstract

The Fisheries Manager's Handbook is a compilation of OECD work designed to aid policy makers develop and implement good policies and management tools in fisheries.  Drawing upon years of OECD research, it demonstrates how an open policy design process with clear objectives, using market-based instruments and focussed on effective stock management can benefit all those involved in or concerned about the fisheries sector.  Of interest not only to policy makers, it will provides a useful guide to NGOs and other interested parties on the principles and processes of good policy design.

Abstract

Following in the footsteps of the book Fish for Life – Interactive Governance for Fisheries (Kooiman et al., 2005), and the interdisciplinary approach it presents, this volume illustrates the contribution of interactive governance theory to understanding core fisheries and aquaculture challenges. These challenges are invariably linked to broader concerns such as ecosystem health, social justice, sustainable livelihoods and food security. The central concept in this perspective is governability – the varied capacity to govern fisheries and aquaculture systems sustainably. Many of these systems are characterized by problems that are inherently 'wicked' and therefore difficult to address.  The authors of this edited volume argue that responses to such problems must consider context; specifically the character of the fisheries and aquaculture systems themselves, their institutional conditions, and the internal and external interactions that affect them. Drawing on a diverse set of international experiences, the volume offers a new lens and systematic approach to analysing the nature of governance problems and opportunities in fisheries and aquaculture, exploring pressing challenges and identifying potential solutions.  ”It now seems clear that the crisis in the world’s fisheries [is] a much larger and more complex problem than many had imagined.   Yet, examining it through the lens of governability may offer the best hope for alleviating it--as well as alleviating similar crises in other social systems.” James R. McGoodwin (Professor Emeritus, University of Colorado).

Abstract

"Following the introduction of the 200-mile extended economic zone (EEZ), many developing countries suddenly found they had large fish resources, which "wisely managed and exploited" could generate wealth and income of immense benefit. However, one constraint to this was that many countries, for historic reasons, lacked the expertise to manage fisheries on this scale. Despite the need for information, few economists and especially development economists teaching in universities and colleges were able to incorporate fisheries economics into their courses owing to the lack of readily accessible material. As a result, many rising economists were failing to recognize the global importance of fishers as an economic resource capable of generating substantial wealth and income to many countries. Economics of Fisheries Development provides an accessible exploration of this area of economics, introducing development economists to some of the problems of developing fisheries in areas of the world where fisheries now present great growth prospects. The case studies used throughout the book are nearly entirely drawn from developing countries."--Bloomsbury Publishing.
