“…In view of the increasingly sharp contradiction between marine economic and social development and marine ecological protection, scholars all over the world pay much attention to their coordinated development at the end of the 20th century, especially in the 21st century. Research topics mainly cover the marine economic transformation of coastal countries and regions (zones) (Liu et al, 2012;Delgado et al, 2021), marine fishery management (Bundy et al, 2017;Gelcich et al, 2019), marine environment governance (Parlee and Wiber, 2018;Devenport et al, 2021), marine protected area management (Carcamo and Gaymer, 2013;Jones et al, 2013), marine biodiversity restoration (Lockwood et al, 2012;Jacob et al, 2018), and marine energy utilization (Castelos, 2014;Goffetti et al, 2018), among others. For example, Sarker et al (2018) analyzed the sustainable development potential of the marine economy in Bangladesh; Voyer et al (2020) took Timor-Leste as an example for assessing consistency and coordination between policies and marine economic development; Gerhardinger et al (2020) formulated a transformation experiment of sustainable development for the marine economy in Brazil; Costello et al (2012) suggested specific plans for the repair, reconstruction, and income increase of small-scale fisheries in the world that did not undergo assessment; lastly, Vince and Hardesty.…”
