As an archipelagic and maritime country, Indonesia has attracted many fishermen from all over the world due to its abundance of marine resources. The government's policy to open lobster seed exports and legalize fishing equipment that was previously prohibited (shrimp trawl, payang, cantrang) in the Minister of Marine Affairs and Fisheries Regulation Number 12 of 2020 has created many debates.

Abstract As terrestrial resources gradually cannot meet people's needs, Countries around the world gradually increase the development and utilization of marine resources. The emergence of marine ranching overcomes many disadvantages of traditional fishery, but there is still a distance from unattended intelligent marine ranch. In this paper, designed a kind of unattended modular underwater robot system which used in marine ranch, including the main body for cage monitoring, the robot module for cleaning and repairing of net clothes and recycling of dead fish, while designed a underwater interfacing apparatus for the main body and root module,This paper introduces the underwater vehicles system of marine ranching, and designs the main body and working module in detail. This paper simply describes the interfacing process of the underwater workstation with the main body and modules.The research results of this paper compensate for the gaps in marine ranch engineering equipment and technology, and meantime proposed an underwater vehicle for cage repairing and dead fish recycling, which uses modular ideas, it can reduces costs and this paper strongly promotes the development of intelligence and automation level of marine ranching.

The California Islands provide a case study that suggests that historical depictions of many islands as marginal environments for hunter-gatherers have been exaggerated by the ecological effects of the introduction of exotic plants and animals, historically or prehistorically. The perception of island marginality is traditionally based on variables ranging from island size to remoteness, isolation, and limited resources. Located near a continent, the California Islands are neither remote nor isolated, and they now appear to have been richer in plant foods, marine resources, minerals, fuel, and freshwater, than previously believed. We discuss these issues and explore the implications for other islands around the world where similar transformations have affected views about their marginality for human settlement and sustainability.

Abstract This article discusses the largely forgotten anti-whaling protests in Norway and Japan at the beginning of the twentieth century. It shows that fishing communities around the world protested almost simultaneously against the introduction of Norwegian-style industrial whaling, even though the protesting fishermen did not compete for the same marine resources as the whalers. Analysing Norwegian and Japanese fishermen’s knowledge reveals that whales played a crucial part in pre-industrial coastal fishing, as they were partly responsible for bringing fish closer to the shore. The article argues that fishing communities around the world had developed ‘coeval moral ecologies’, believing that the killing and flensing of whales caused environmental pollution, hurting coastal flora and fauna, and thus ultimately diminishing the coastal ecosystem on which the fishing communities depended. Fisheries scientists, politicians, and whalers have, however, downplayed this fishermen’s knowledge by presenting allegedly unbiased scientific data that did not indicate a relationship between whaling and fishing.

Part of the What Everyone Needs to Know® series, David Day's book on Antarctica examines the most forbidding and formidably inaccessible continent on Earth. Antarctica was first discovered by European explorers in 1820, and for over a century following this, countries competed for the frozen land's vast marine resources--namely, the skins and oil of seals and whales. Soon the entire territory played host to competing claims by rival nations. The Antarctic Treaty of 1959 was meant to end this contention, but countries have found other means of extending control over the land, with scientific bases establishing at least symbolic claims. Exploration and drilling by the United States, Great Britain, Russia, Japan, and others has led to discoveries about the world's climate in centuries past--and in the process intimations of its alarming future. Delving into the history of the continent, Antarctic wildlife, arguments over governance, underwater mountain rangers, and the continent's use in predicting coming global change, Day's work sheds new light on a territory that, despite being the coldest, driest, and windiest continent in the world, will continue to be the object of intense speculation and competition.

Strategic assessors of the 21st century are "The Century of the Ocean," because, along with current economic and demographic growth, natural resources, especially non-renewable resources on land, will be exhausted after several decades. The world economy is increasingly dependent on the sea and the ocean. About 70% of the world's industrial potential is in the 500km wide area of ​​the coast. The mineral, biological and marine resources of the oceans and oceans have an important implication for the world economy. Marine ecosystems are the most important resource with hundreds of thousands of animals, plants, and microorganisms. Sea is a diversified and abundant source of seafood, chemicals, salt, oil and gas, clean energy from the sea and oceans, wind, seawater, ocean currents, and the tide is being exploited for transportation, energy and countless other human benefits. The sea and the continental shelf are waterways that can develop tourism, sightseeing and recreation activities. The role of marine economics, including maritime economics, has become increasingly important and has been identified as a key sector for investment. This paper analyzes the advantages, limitations, and causes in maritime economic development, and draws on experiences to develop the maritime economy.

Coral reefs everywhere are under increasing pressure from a suite of stressors. Recently, threats associated with climate change have been brought closer into focus and now dominate discussions and debate relating to the coral reef crisis (Hughes et al. 2003, Hoegh-Guldberg et al. 2007). Indeed, mitigating local stressors on coral reefs has been given less priority and publicity than the global need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Interestingly though, recent surveys demonstrate that most reef scientists agree that coral reefs are under greater threat from impacts associated with human population growth, coastal development, and overfishing than from global climate change (Kleypas and Eakin 2007). This is especially true for the reefs in SE Asia and the Pacific, which make up the bulk of the reefs in the world (Bryant et al. 1998). In these areas, regulations to ensure that anthropogenic activities near and on coral reefs are conducted sustainably, such as development, sanitation, fishing and even tourism; either do not exist or are rarely enforced due to a lack of resources. Here, we present one such example from Indonesia, one of the most densely populated countries in the world, a country where over 60% of the population relies in some way on marine resources.

Abstract The argument persists that the continued overexploitation by many fisheries around the world is evidence that current approaches to fisheries management are failing, and that more precautionary management approaches are needed. We review the available estimates of the status of fish stocks from three sources: the FAO's “State of Marine Resources”, a database on scientific stock assessments, and recent estimates from statistical models designed to determine the status of unassessed fish stocks. The two key results are (i) that stocks that are scientifically assessed are in better shape and indeed are not typically declining but rebuilding, and (ii) that large stocks appear to be in better shape than small stocks. These results support the view that stocks that are managed are improving, while stocks that are not managed are not. Large stocks receive far more management attention than small stocks in jurisdictions that have active fisheries management systems, and most unassessed stocks are simply not managed. We assert that fisheries management as currently practised can (and often does) lead to sustainable fisheries, and what is needed is to actively manage the unassessed fisheries of the world. More precautionary management is not necessarily needed to ensure the sustainability of managed fisheries.

Indonesia is the largest country in Southeast Asia. This Thousand Island Country also ranks 15 in the list of the largest countries in the world. Where Indonesia has a very large marine area, geographically surrounded by waters and seas, has many islands, most of the population works as fishermen and has large natural and marine resources. Minister of Marine Affairs and issued regulation No. 12 of 2020 Concerning The Management Of Lobster (Panulirus spp.), Crab (Scylla spp.), And Rajungan (Portunus spp.) In The Region Of The Republic Of Indonesia. This regulation is more profitable for investors than fishermen or lobster cultivators so that the scarcity of lobster seeds complicates the cultivators.

Indonesia is a maritime country in terms of economic life Many people work as fishermen because of the potential for fisheries high due to the confluence of ocean currents. Indonesia which is an archipelago country which has special marine resources and has always been the target of fishermen from various countries that are equipped with modern and successful tools capture with a large number of scales. With the fisherman playing the host there are still a number of restrictions related to fisheries. Ministry of Maritime Affairs and fisheries seeks to find solutions in the field of fishing with replace environmentally friendly equipment.
