补充型过度捕捞的确认及其对渔业管理的启示 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
生物学参考点用来指导渔业管理决策,通常以捕捞死亡系数来表达。补充型过度捕捞常常被理解为一个种群被捕捞至补充量出现实质性减少或失败时才发生。该定义很含糊,不能建立生物学参考点,它与捕捞死亡系数挂钩。因此,提出从减少一个世代亲体量的捕捞压力水平出发,定义补充型过度捕捞即是捕捞死亡系数使产卵群体低于其亲代平均生物量的临界点。常规的模型和亲体补充量数据都可确定这一参考点,并与亲体量的更替联系起来,从而实现渔业资源的可持续发展。以印度洋黄鳍金枪鱼渔业为例,计算了其补充型过度捕捞的生物学参考点,提出限制围网诱鱼装置作业,减少幼鱼资源的过度开发,防止补充型过度捕捞发生引起资源的衰退。 相似文献

Fishing and Farming at Lake Chad: Overcapitalisation, Opportunities and Fisheries Management 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Marie-Thérèse Sarch 《Journal of environmental management》1996,48(4):305-320
Overcapitalisation is one way in which fishing is said to exert a negative externality on the wider economy. Resources invested in fishing could be invested more productively in other sectors of the economy. The logical solution is the shift of resources, in particular scarce capital, from fishing to more profitable sectors. This paper examines the rural economy at Lake Chad and the implications from the results of a socio-economic survey of fishing households for potential fisheries management measures, in particular those which would limit or reduce the level of resources invested in the Lake's fishery. Survey results demonstrate a close link between the farming and fishing activities of many households and suggest that the integration of fishing and farming necessitate consideration of the inter-sectoral impacts of potential fisheries management measures. 相似文献

While many scientific studies show the influence of agricultural landscape patterns on water cycle and water quality, only
a few of these have proposed scientifically based and operational methods to improve water management. Territ’eau is a framework
developed to adapt agricultural landscapes to water quality protection, using components such as farmers’ fields, seminatural
areas, and human infrastructures, which can act as sources, sinks, or buffers on water quality. This framework allows us to
delimit active areas contributing to water quality, defined by the following three characteristics: (i) the dominant hydrological
processes and their flow pathways, (ii) the characteristics of each considered pollutant, and (iii) the main landscape features.
These areas are delineated by analyzing the flow connectivity from the stream to the croplands, by assessing the buffer functions
of seminatural areas according to their flow pathways. Hence, this framework allows us to identify functional seminatural
areas in terms of water quality and assess their limits and functions; it helps in proposing different approaches for changing
agricultural landscape, acting on agricultural practices or systems, and/or conserving or rebuilding seminatural areas in
controversial landscapes. Finally, it allows us to objectivize the functions of the landscape components, for adapting these
components to new environmental constraints. 相似文献

FAO has a unique and essential rolein addressing the ethical problems facinghumanity and in making these problems intoopportunities for practical resolution. A broadrange of ethical issues in agriculture,fisheries, and forestry were identified byanalysis of the literature and by interviewswith FAO staff. Issues include sharing accessto and preserving natural resources,introduction of new technology, conservatismover the use of genetic engineering, ethics inanimal agriculture, access to information, foodsecurity, sustainable rural development,ensuring participation of all people indecision making and in receiving benefits ofagriculture, reducing corruption, andinvolvement of private and public sectors indecision making. Rather than viewing theseissues as problems, they should be viewed asopportunities for debate, learning aboutothers' views, and resolution. The UnitedNations has an important role to play in howdecisions are made in the global ethical debatein food and agriculture. The ethical role ofFAO is to promote global food security,balanced conservation, management andutilization of natural resources, andsustainable rural development. FAO should fullyand publicly assume its ethicalresponsibilities, gathering and sharinginformation on ethics in its areas of mandate,acting as an interactive forum, and providingexpert guidance on policy options and choicesbased on practical ethical analysis. 相似文献

Economic Development,Income Inequality and Environmental Degradation of Fisheries Resources in Mauritius 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Sobhee SK 《Environmental management》2004,34(1):150-157
This article examines how environmental degradation of fisheries resources in the context of Mauritius is linked up with human investment in education, economic growth, and income inequality. Empirical evidence shows that public-sector investment in education promotes economic growth, but at the expense of greater inequality of income. Among the vulnerable groups affected by this type of development process lies the fisherman community. In fact, children of poor families in coastal Mauritius have constrained access to complete school education because of the persistently high opportunity cost involved. Hence, this community is caught up in a vicious circle, as its children or grandchildren would barely be redeployed elsewhere other than in the fisheries sector itself. Such exclusion might account for the overexploitation of marine resources of the island and the accompanying reduction in fish catch over recent years.*(Paper presented at the Third Research and Training Workshop of the Resource Accounting Network for Eastern and Southern Africa (RANESA), University of Pretoria (Funded by SIDA, Sweden), held in Mauritius, Nov 2000. I am grateful to the participants for their helpful suggestions. Needless to say, the usual disclaimer applies).

Worldwide, the implementation of marine protected areas (MPAs) offers opportunities for delivering fisheries and biodiversity
management objectives. In Australia however, the primary function of an MPA is that of biodiversity conservation. Nonetheless,
the management of Indigenous customary fisheries is one area where fisheries and biodiversity issues converge. This article
examines the relationship between biodiversity and customary fisheries in an MPA context by investigation of the role and
importance of Indigenous social contexts. Using case study examples from Australia, I explore the role of Indigenous social
contexts in two dimensions: (i) management of traditional fisheries and (ii) Indigenous contribution to fisheries within an
MPA. Findings demonstrate two narratives concerning social contexts, one of recognition and the other concerning Indigenous
involvement in management. I conclude with a survey of Indigenous management initiatives within MPAs. The article ends with
a discussion of the utility of understanding social contexts in any marine management endeavour, specifically other social
contexts within an MPA. 相似文献

Traditional knowledge and practices are important in prudent resource use and biodiversity conservation. The implications of modernization and changing lifestyle are discussed in the context of agriculture and resource use, the two sectors in which maximum modernization has occurred. The information was gathered through observations and structured interviews over three years (July 1996 to July 1999) of field work in the western Himalaya. It was observed that forest based subsistence agriculture has given way to the market dependant cash crop cultivation. That apart from loss of genetic diversity, has also resulted in the degradation of forests. The use of wild plants in the day-to-day activities has also declined and dependence on high value market products has increased. Currently, wild plants are used only if no other cheap substitute is available in the market or if the use is economically beneficial to the people. Thus, the knowledge gathered through ages of experience is eroding because of the activities geared for short-term economic benefits which, in long run, may not be sustainable. 相似文献

The main purpose of The NorwegianGene Technology Act (1993) is to enforcecontainment of genetically modified organisms(GMOs) and control of GMO releases.Furthermore, the Act intends to ensure that``production and use of GMOs should take placein an ethically and socially justifiable way,in accordance with the principle of sustainabledevelopment and without detrimental effects tohealth and the environment.' Hence it isobvious that, for the Norwegian authorities,sustainable development is a normativeguideline when evaluating acceptableconsequences of GMO use and production. Inaccordance with this, we have investigated theextent to which the sustainability criteriawere decisive for the destiny of one approvedand one declined application of geneticallymodified plant release. The presentunderstanding of the ecological,socio-economical, and cultural consequences ofGMO use and release is fragmentary anduncertain. We consider the PrecautionaryPrinciple and the notion of equitabledistribution as key issues within thesustainable development framework, henceconstituting important foundations for ouranalyses. The Act is legitimizingsustainability criteria, but does not seem tosecure their conversion into concrete action.We envisage a more conscious implementation ofthe Norwegian Gene Technology Act.Sustainability concerns ecological, economical,and social values, and these can only beensured through long-term thinking, initiationof independent risk-associated research, andbroad involvement of all stakeholders in theevaluation of GMO issues and concerns. 相似文献

Rapid growth in marine sand mining for construction and other uses poses environmental challenges to coastal nations virtually
worldwide. Yet the development of management policies, such as a system of fees imposed on operators for damage caused by
mining, has been frustrated by a lack of studies to support such measures. Adapting a Beverton-Holt bioeconomic model, this
paper attempts to contribute to the estimation of external costs to commercial fisheries due to marine mining. Using the major
mining area of Ongjin in Korea as a case study, we estimate economic losses in use value of commercial fisheries through the
time to recovery of the injured resource stocks. Present value of lost catch over a 1-year period from mining to resource
recovery is estimated at $38,851 for a single “prototype” mining site. Estimated cumulative damages due to recurring mining
for 5 and 10 years are $1.5 million and $2.2 million, respectively, at 20 mining sites. Sensitivity analyses are used to examine
the effects of alternative assumptions to assess the many sources of uncertainty. Using a form of meta-analysis, dose-response
information is used to assess the excess mortality the mining sediment plume has on eggs and larvae and, ultimately, on the
value of lost catch ($841). Also addressed is the importance of specifying the appropriate “premining” conditions against
which to assess environmental losses at the mining site. Damages estimated with premining fish populations are $23,066 higher
than is the case using postmining conditions. Overall, the illustrative results suggest the variety of complex conditions
which influence damage to fisheries from mining and which can benefit from further study to improve management guidelines.
