Book excerpt: The Law of the Seabed reviews the most pressing legal questions raised by the use and protection of natural resources on and underneath the world’s seabeds. While barely accessible, the seabed plays a major role in the Earth’s ecological balance. It is both a medium and a resource, and is central to the blue economy. New uses and new knowledge about seabed ecosystems, and the risks of disputes due to competing interests, urge reflection on which regulatory approaches to pursue. The regulation of ocean activities is essentially sector-based, and the book puts in parallel the international and national regimes for seabed mining, oil and gas, energy generation, bottom fisheries, marine genetic resources, carbon sequestration and maritime security operations, both within and beyond the national jurisdiction. The book contains seven parts respectively addressing the definition of the seabed from a multidisciplinary perspective, the principles of jurisdiction delimitation under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), the regimes for use of non-living, living and marine biodiversity resources, the role of state and non-state actors, the laying and removal of installations, the principles for sustainable and equitable use (common heritage of mankind, precaution, benefit sharing), and management tools to ensure coexistence between activities as well as the protection of the marine environment.

B. and published by Food & Agriculture Org. [Author]. This book was released on 2024-04-30 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Guidelines for the Management of Deep-sea Fisheries in the High Seas (DSF Guidelines) were adopted by FAO in 2008. [Author] The first and only review of the implementation of the Guidelines took place in 2010. [Author] There have been many advances in implementation since then and it is timely to conduct another review. [Author] The DSF Guidelines have been used to guide regional fisheries management organizations and states in the development of spatial management processes defining fishing grounds and protecting vulnerable marine ecosystems. [Author] The DSF Guidelines also require that harvested fish stocks and impacts on bycatch species are assessed and managed, but this has been less well implemented. [Author]

This book was released on 2008 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goals of the expert consultation were to advise FAO on the development and implementation of a global record of fishing vessels and to respond to the request from FAO's Committee on Fisheries to further develop the concept as described in the feasibility study. A comprehensive global record, a potential additional tool to combat illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, is envisioned as a global database gathering data from many sources in one location.--Publisher's description

This book was released on 2015 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visual surveys provide for non-invasive sampling of organisms and habitats in the marine environment. They are particularly important in deep-sea habitats which are vulnerable to damage caused by alternative destructive sampling devices such as bottom trawls. However, traditional visual survey platforms tend to have limited area coverage which is insufficient for mapping the vast expanses of the deep-sea, particularly for relatively sparsely distributed organisms such as fish. This thesis presents the development of a visual survey method capable of surveying large areas of the seabed in deep waters (> 200 m) using a towed video camera system. The area of seabed sampled was similar to that sampled by a bottom trawl, making the system effective for surveying fish. Anglerfish densities were found to be comparable to those determined by trawl surveys in adjacent areas. For other deep-sea fish, the two survey methods (towed camera and bottom trawl) provided different results which were explained by the behavioural reactions of different fish taxa to the respective gears. Fish that exhibited detectable avoidance behaviour to the towed video camera system (e.g. Chimaeridae) resulted in significantly lower density estimates than trawl estimates. On the other hand, skates and rays showed no reaction to the towed video camera system, and density estimates of these were an order of magnitude higher than the trawl. The towed video camera survey was also deployed to gather data on the cold-water coral Lophelia pertusa on the Rockall Bank. These data were used together with Species Distribution Modelling (SDM) to predict the distribution of Lophelia pertusa habitat. The current closed areas on the Rockall Bank cover sizeable areas of potential Lophelia pertusa habitat, however, based on the predictions further areas could be considered to ensure the continued protection of this species.
Download or read book Sustaining Marine Fisheries written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1999-03-19 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fluctuations and declines in marine fish populations have caused growing concern among marine scientists, fisheries managers, commercial and recreational fishers, and the public. Sustaining Marine Fisheries explores the nature of marine ecosystems and the complex interacting factors that shape their productivity. The book documents the condition of marine fisheries today, highlighting species and geographic areas that are under particular stress. Challenges to achieving sustainability are discussed, and shortcomings of existing fisheries management and regulation are examined. The volume calls for fisheries management to adopt a broader ecosystem perspective that encompasses all relevant environmental and human influences. Sustaining Marine Fisheries offers new approaches to building workable fisheries management institutions, improving scientific data, and developing management tools. The book recommends ways to change current practices that encourage overexploitation of fish resources. It will be of special interest to marine policymakers and ecologists, fisheries regulators and managers, fisheries scientists and marine ecologists, fishers, and concerned individuals.
Download or read book Assessment management and future directions for coastal fisheries in Asian countries written by Silvestre, G. et al and published by WorldFish. This book was released on 2003-12-08 with total page 1076 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Asia, the fisheries sector is important in terms of food security, livelihoods and foreign exchange earnings. However, as in many parts of the world, there are signs that capture fisheries are fully exploited or overfished. Management of fisheries in the region is often hampered by lack of information on the status of fisheries in terms of biological, social, economic, policy and governance aspects. This regional project documents an alarming decline on coastal fishery resources, based on historic research surveys in South and Southeast Asia. Socio-economic analyses and policy reviews highlight the importance of the fisheries sector but also the challenges facing it. Potential interventions to improve fisheries management in the countries are outlined and defined with environmental, socioeconomic and institutional objectives.
Download or read book Improving Environmental Sustainability of Deep Sea Fisheries with Emphasis on the Conservation of Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems VMEs written by and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present specific study has the dual purpose of assessing and improving scientific data and advice, as well as relevant management measures, regarding the environmental sustainability of Deep Sea Fishing (DSF) and the conservation of Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs). In addition, the ultimate objective of this contract is that the identified best practices shall inform and strengthen European Union (EU) policy choices, in particular in the context of its participation in Regional Fisheries Management Organizations (RFMOs), and provide a "model regulation" of VMEs, as well as in the context of any possible revision of Council Regulation (EC) No 734/20082. EASME/CINEA commissioned the AZTI led consortium (AZTI, CEFAS, CSIC, IEO, IPMA, IRD, MRAG-EU and WMR) for the Framework Contract EASME/EMFF/2019/014 for the "Provision of scientific advice for fisheries beyond EU waters". The present Final Report refers to the D9 of the Specific Contract (SC) No 01 under this framework, which title is "Improving environmental sustainability of deep sea fisheries with emphasis on the conservation of Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs)". This report provides the information and results of all the work carried out throughout the study. It includes the key content of all tasks and deliverables. In addition, the deliverables and relevant information from some sub-tasks have been included as annexes. The starting point for the development of this study are the outputs of previous initiatives (e.g. recent desk-based studies related to DSF management and VME conservation, EU research projects, etc.). In this regard, it is noteworthy that in 2018 the European Commission commissioned a specific study aiming at providing a comprehensive review and analysis of the scientific approaches adopted and in development by each of the RFMOs and RFBs that manage bottom-fishing activities. Its findings demonstrated the panoply of methodologies and criteria that are currently in place across RFMOs. This study (hereafter "SC08") provides an appropriate starting point upon which to compare and contrast the performance of different RFMOs, with respect to DSF, and with a particular focus on the avoidance and mitigation measures designed to conserve and protect VMEs, species, habitats and biodiversity in the deep sea.
