Fisheries management

sustainable human settlement development by providing adequate shelter for all and planning sustainable land use. ii) Conservation and management of resources for development a) Protection of atmosphere by concentrating on renewable resources of energy, Implementing more efficient and less polluting transport systems and better planning and management of land resources b) Combating deforestation by strengthening forest related national entities, establishing capacities for planning…

1.1 Introduction During the past, traditional knowledge has contributed a lot in sustainable practices and living but the knowledge seems to be disappearing at present. This might happened due to either the new generations do not want to accept and apply those knowledge or those knowledge are not transformed to other generations (Parajuli & Das, 2013). 1.2 What is traditional knowledge? There are other names for traditional knowledge such as local knowledge and indigenous…

One frequently discussed implication of neoliberalism is a movement towards collaborative community processes as an alternative to traditional top down resource management and regulatory actions by the state. Some suggest that in certain contexts, devolved government processes, such as collaborative or community management, allow powerful capital interests to co-opt democratic processes for further accumulation while circumventing traditional regulatory enforcement (Purcell 2009). These devolved…

This paper sought to determine the importance of institutional arrangements with regard to WCEAM (watershed cumulative effects assessment and management), because it plays a vital role in the field of CEA (cumulative effects assessment). The authors identifie that there is a gap in cumulative effects assessment procedure and development activity in watersheds and should be addressed what Schindler & Donahue (2006) refer to as ‘holistically’ and place emphasis on integrating and improving the…

Indeed, from the perspective of sustainable development some of the most important decisions that may flow from the negotiations that were launched in Doha are to be found in sections that do not explicitly mention environment, development, or sustainable development. Agriculture. Agriculture will be at the heart of the post-Doha negotiations, and sustainable development will be at the heart of the agriculture negotiations. It is hard to overstate the importance of agriculture for sustainable…

interface between human and environmental systems interacting with both of these systems and with each other by feedback. However, there are other systems involved in these interactions to include natural and socioeconomic changes. As such land management decisions must have a balance between optimizing the various opportunities and the challenges imposed by various external factors. This proves that land-use and landscape change processes are complex and in order to cope with these complexities…

due to ‘Coriolis Effect’ and the funnel shape appearance of Bay of Bengal basin these hit the coastal areas of Bangladesh. Cyclones are accompanied with torrential rain and storm surges which causes loss of human lives, destruction of livestock, fisheries, forests, agriculture, inundation of land and ponds…

explains the global effects of deep-ocean overfishing. Coll describes how overfishing destroys fish populations, damages ocean ecosystems, and causes economic instability (2008, p. 1). Overfishing is the unsustainable harvest of fish for market. Fisheries are overfished to create more profits in the short term for fishermen, who collect a large percentage of a fish population to sell. The removal of the fish from the ecosystem destroys the entire food web, down to the trophic level (Coll, 2008,…

physical sciences. There is a diverse range of scientists who could possibly work for the Fundy Ocean Research Centre for Energy (FORCE), for this simulation, I will assume the position of a regulatory scientist. They are on the lower level of the management system because they have little say in the decision-making process since they have little data to go on. In a Tidal Turbine Project, their job is to reassure the public that the new technology is reliable and safe. In this simulation,…
