Fisheries Management in Coastal Areas
Research Guide

What is Fisheries Management in Coastal Areas?

Fisheries management in coastal areas develops integrated strategies for sustainable harvesting of fish stocks while preserving ecosystem health and community livelihoods.

Coastal fisheries management addresses overfishing through stock assessments, protected areas, and policy frameworks (Silvestre et al., 2003, 145 citations). Key approaches include marine protected areas for compliance and resource recovery (Salm and Clark, 2000, 442 citations). Regional development in archipelagic states like Indonesia integrates coastal zone planning (Lasabuda, 2013, 233 citations). Over 50 papers document these practices across Asia and tropics.

Key Challenges

Why It Matters

Sustainable fisheries management supports food security and livelihoods for 2.5 million Indonesian households reliant on small-scale fisheries (Stacey et al., 2021, 102 citations). It mitigates overexploitation impacts, as seen in Asian coastal fisheries requiring urgent stock assessments (Silvestre et al., 2003). Protected areas enhance compliance and recovery, directly aiding tropical planners (Salm and Clark, 2000). COVID-19 disruptions highlighted vulnerabilities in tropical small-scale fleets, underscoring adaptive policies (Campbell et al., 2020, 109 citations). Seaweed integration diversifies production, boosting aquaculture value (Chopin and Tacon, 2020, 199 citations).

Key Research Challenges

Overfishing Assessment Gaps

Accurate stock evaluations remain challenging amid data scarcity in Asian coastal fisheries (Silvestre et al., 2003). Variable pelagic catches around Java complicate predictive models (Hendiarti et al., 2005, 87 citations). Limited monitoring hinders sustainable quotas.

Policy Compliance Barriers

Achieving stakeholder buy-in for protected areas demands rapid tools for tropical managers (Salm and Clark, 2000). Archipelagic development faces enforcement issues in vast coastal zones (Lasabuda, 2013). Community resistance slows implementation.

Livelihood Diversification Limits

Small-scale fishers struggle with alternatives amid resource decline in Indonesia (Stacey et al., 2021). Gender initiatives in coastal livelihoods show uneven success (Stacey et al., 2019, 98 citations). Sargassum invasions disrupt traditional practices (Louime et al., 2017, 104 citations).
