“…Developed countries (United Kingdom, Sweden, Canada and Spain) lead the majority of such studies to assess aquaculture systems in Asian countries such as Vietnam and Bangladesh (Galaz et al 2012; Orchard et al 2015; Khan et al 2018). Publications from the United States incorporate a number of national‐level studies aimed at Pacific islands (Fiji, the Solomon Islands, Timor‐Leste and Vanuatu), looking at the economic impacts of climate change in aquaculture (Rosegrant et al 2016; Dey et al 2016a; Dey et al 2016b). Sustainability and livelihood is another approach often employed to study aquaculture in the development context (e.g.…”

“…Aquaculture operations in marine and coastal areas are the most commonly studied in this analysis. The economic impacts of marine and coastal aquaculture are a major topic among studies aimed at national‐level adaptation strategies (Rosegrant et al 2016; Dey et al 2016a; Dey et al 2016b). Inland aquaculture is the second targeted area of aquaculture, and all the study areas are limited to global south nations (Bosma et al 2012; Jayanthi et al 2018; Lebel & Lebel 2018; Limuwa et al 2018; Lebel et al 2018a; Lebel et al 2018b).…”

“…Many strategies developed in selected case studies are specific to the region or country, which also considers the complexity and uncertainty of multiple climate change impacts embedded in aquaculture systems (Oviedo & Bursztyn 2016; Lebel et al 2018a). At the national level, in the marine policy sector, aquaculture itself is considered a strategy for adapting to climate change impacts; for instance, the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Timor‐Leste, Fiji and Vietnam included aquaculture as a national adaptation strategy within the natural resource sector plans (Rosegrant et al 2016; Dey et al 2016a; Dey et al 2016b; Dey et al 2016c). The majority (81%) of adaptive strategy studies focus on the regional scale to the national scale, with only about 19% focusing on the community scale (Arimi 2014; Lebel et al 2015).…”

This study conducts the first systematic literature review of climate change adaptation in aquaculture. We address three specific questions: (i) What is aquaculture adapting to? (ii) How is aquaculture adapting? and (iii) What research gaps need to be addressed? We identify, characterise and examine case studies published between 1990 and 2018 that lie at the intersection of the domains of climate change, adaptation and aquaculture. The main areas of documented climate change impacts relate to extreme events and the general impacts of climate change on the aquaculture sector. Three categories of adaptation to climate change are identified: coping mechanisms at the local level (e.g. water quality management techniques), multilevel adaptive strategies (e.g. changing culture practices) and management approaches (e.g. adaptation planning, community‐based adaptation). We identify four potential areas for future research: research on inland aquaculture adaptation; studies at the household level; whether different groups of aquaculture farmers (e.g. indigenous people) face and adapt differently to climate change; and the use of GIS and remote sensing as cost‐effective tools for developing adaptation strategies and responses. The study brings essential practical and theoretical insights to the aquaculture industry as well as to climate change adaptation research across the globe.

“…Pemanasan global atau biasa dikenal dengan istilah perubahan iklim (climate change) dapat berdampak pada aspek perikanan (Badjeck et al 2010). Beberapa perubahan yang muncul sebagai dampak dari climate change misalnya kenaikan suhu perairan, meningkatnya pengendapan, pH, salinitas, oksigen, kecepatan angin, gelombang dan kenaikan muka laut yang secara signifikan berpengaruh terhadap kondisi ekologi atau penurunan jasa layanan ekosistem di laut maupun di perairan tawar (Brander 2010;Cheung et al 2009;Drinkwater et al 2009;Jones 2013;Wang et al 2016), dan berdampak pada penurunan produksi perikanan dan mata pencaharian masyarakat (Asch et al 2017;Belhabib et al 2016;Coulthard 2008;Ohwayo et al 2016;Rosegrant et al 2016;Shaffril et al 2017a;Valmonte-Santos et al 2016) serta dapat mempengaruhi keamanan pangan (food security) berdasarkan tingkat kerentanan (vulnerability) terhadap perubahan iklim (Ding et al 2017), sehingga harus dilakukan proses adaptasi secara sosial dan kebijakan baik secara spasial maupun temporal (de Salamanca et al 2017;Shaffril et al 2017b;Singh et al 2017).…”

Studies on the fluxes of greenhouse gases in mangrove ecosystems especially during tides are relatively scarce. The research was conducted in Tallo River Makassar which is a mangrove ecosystem habitat. Gas sampling was done by utilising size 0,5x0,5x1 m3 chamber through a syringe during the tidal periods. Gas analysis was done using gas chromatography methods. The research shows that the flux of CO2 gasduring high tide was 204,84 mg m-2 hr-1 or 1,79 kg m-2 year-1 and 183,81 mg m-2 hr-1 or 1,61 kg m-2 year-1 during low tide, while the flux of CH4 gaswas 0,75 mg m-2 hr-1 or 0,007 kg m-2 year-1 during high tide and 0,62 mg m-2 hr-1 or 0,005 kg m-2 year-1 during low tide, and the flux of N2O gaswas 0,141 mg m-2 hr-1 or 0,0012 kg m-2 year-1 during high tide and 0,145 mg m-2 hr-1 or 0,0013 kg m-2 year-1 during low tide. Keywords : greenhouse gas flux, mangrove ecosystem, Tallo River

“…With rising seas and increased sea temperatures, islands face challenges to their economic production. Warmer oceans can damage coral reefs, decreasing tourism and fish production (Asian Development Bank 2013; Rosegrant et al 2016), and changes in rainfall and salt water inundation can affect fresh water lenses and crop production such as copra and taro (Barnett 2011;Patel 2006;Terry and Chui 2012). Additionally, out-migration from the islands removes higher-skilled laborers from the domestic labour pool (Brown and Connell 2004).…”

Climate Migration and Cultural Preservation: The Case of the Marshallese Diaspora

2018

Loss and Damage From Climate Change

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Potential land loss in Pacific island countries from rising sea levels raises many concerns regarding how nation states will continue to function politically and economically in the event of climate-induced relocation of their populations. This piece expands that conversation, addressing the impacts of relocation on cultural heritage, drawing on data from interviews with migrants from the Marshall Islands to the United States. The study seeks to understand the challenges and opportunities of cultural preservation among the Marshallese diaspora. Marshallese accounts of life in the United States indicate many opportunities for cultural preservation, particularly for those living in communities with large Marshallese populations, while also presenting challenges based on social, economic, and geographic differences between the U.S. and the Marshall Islands. Understanding the means through which Marshallese migrants maintain cultural traditions and the challenges current migrants face, can help us address potentially irreversible, but avoidable losses of cultural traditions in the event of mass displacement. Keywords Cultural heritage • Migration • Non-economic losses • Marshall islands • Diaspora 16.1 Losses and Damages in the Pacific Islands For the low-lying islands of the Pacific, climate change poses an existential risk (see also chapter by Handmer and Nalau 2018). In particular, increased sea level and temperature threatens the islands and atolls with floods, erosion, groundwater degradation, and coral reef damage (Nurse et al. 2014). Under the Representative Concentrations Pathway (RCP) scenarios, by 2100 mean sea levels will increase 0.44 m (under RCP 2.6) up to 0.74 m (under RCP8.5) with regional variations that could further increase sea levels in the Pacific (IPCC 2013). Based on these
