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 Tides Surges and Mean Sea Level written by D. T. Pugh and published by . This book was released on 1987-12-28 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to present modern tidal ideas to those who are not tidal specialists, but for whom some knowledge of tides is involved in their professional or scientific field. These include hydrographers, marine and coastal engineers, geologists who specialize in beach or marine sedimentation processes, and biologists concerned with the ways in which living organisms adapt to the rhythms of the sea. Modern practical studies are concerned with problems of marine transport, coastal erosion and the design of coastal defences against flooding. Interest in mean sea-level changes has recently been focused on the possibility of significant increases over the coming century as a result of global warming. Examples of applications from North America, Europe and other parts of the world are included.

Download or read book Sea Level Variations in Gulf of Thailand written by Vichai Punpuk and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a study of low-pass filtered hourly sea levels for Sattahip and Ko-Lak in the northern Gulf of Thailand during the period 1960 through 1966, the sea level variations due to meteorological effects are found. The mean annual variation of the filtered sea level, which averages 0.5 meters, is consistent with the climatological mean annual wind variations. This sea level change appears to be a response to the Ekman transport which would be expected from the seasonal monsoon wind regimes. Sea level response to atmospheric pressure is negligible compared with response to wind. Analyses performed to find relations between the filtered sea level and the gulf-wide geostrophic wind and local surface wind show that the sea level slopes upward across the gulf in the same direction as the local wind blows, the response being coherent in the frequency band 0.083-0.117 cycles per day (period 8 to 12 days). This wind set-up effect is clearly secondary to the Ekman transport in inducing the seasonal sea level variations observed in the gulf.

Download or read book Numerical Models of Oceans and Oceanic Processes written by Lakshmi H. Kantha and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2000-08-08 with total page 981 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oceans play a pivotal role in our weather and climate. Ocean-borne commerce is vital to our increasingly close-knit global community. Yet we do not fully understand the intricate details of how they function, how they interact with the atmosphere, and what the limits are to their biological productivity and their tolerance to wastes. While satellites are helping us to fill in the gaps, numerical ocean models are playing an important role in increasing our ability to comprehend oceanic processes, monitor the current state of the oceans, and to a limited extent, even predict their future state.Numerical Models of Oceans and Oceanic Processes is a survey of the current state of knowledge in this field. It brings together a discussion of salient oceanic dynamics and processes, numerical solution methods, and ocean models to provide a comprehensive treatment of the topic. Starting with elementary concepts in ocean dynamics, it deals with equatorial, mid-latitude, high latitude, and coastal dynamics from the perspective of a modeler. A comprehensive and up-to-date chapter on tides is also included. This is followed by a discussion of different kinds of numerical ocean models and the pre- and post-processing requirements and techniques. Air-sea and ice-ocean coupled models are described, as well as data assimilation and nowcast/forecasts. Comprehensive appendices on wavelet transforms and empirical orthogonal functions are also included.This comprehensive and up-to-date survey of the field should be of interest to oceanographers, atmospheric scientists, and climatologists. While some prior knowledge of oceans and numerical modeling is helpful, the book includes an overview of enough elementary material so that along with its companion volume, Small Scale Processes in Geophysical Flows, it should be useful to both students new to the field and practicing professionals.* Comprehensive and up-to-date review* Useful for a two-semester (or one-semester on selected topics) graduate level course* Valuable reference on the topic* Essential for a better understanding of weather and climate

Book excerpt: Dans un passé assez récent, un intérêt sans précédent s'est développé concernant les ressources globales. Nous nous rendons maintenant compte que les ressources biologiques sont loin d'être illimitées et pendant les dernières décennies du 20ème siècle, des efforts ont débuté pour contrôler nos usages de l'environnement et qui agissent les uns avec les autres dans les écosystèmes dont nous dépendons finalement. Le projet "Mers au millénaire": Une Evatuation Environmentale sur la zone côtière couvre le secteur où vit plus d'un quart de l'humanité, et jusque au bas du plateau continental. Ces trois livres se concentrent sur la biosphère où les interactions de l'homme avec les mers et leurs systèmes biologiques et physiques sont le plus sensibles. 135 chapitres écrits par les experts internationaux et les scientifiques travaillant dans ce domaine offrent un sommaire unique des mers et des océans du monde. À la fin du millénaire les auteurs à travers le monde ont examiné l'état de nos habitats marins et côtiers. Pour la première fois, ils ont uni leurs efforts de par le monde pour s'assurer que ces habitats restent dans un état de fonctionnement durable et stable; l'information a été documentée et assemblée dans une source bibliographique unique. "Mers au millénaire" fournit aux scientifiques dans le monde entier une occasion unique pour s'enrichir de toutes ces expériences. Les trois volumes de "Mers au millénaire" couvrent des chapîtres d'importance globale et régionale comme : description biologique des eaux côtières et du plateau continental; développement et utilisation de la zone côtière; effets des dragages et autres techniques d'accrétion sédimentaire; effet dans le temps des déversement de polluants;de pêche; méthodes et techniques de gestion utilisées pour gérer en continu les écosystèmes. Plus de 800 figures comprenant des cartes, les graphiques, les dessins au trait et les photograph.
