“…In the process of development of marine industry, the economy, innovation and environment are interrelated, and the dynamic coordination among system elements needs to be examined. Tsilimigkas et al (2018) (Tsilimigkas and Rempis, 2018) analyzed the compatibility between marine economic activities (aquaculture and tourism) and marine protected areas in Crete, Greece and how to enhance the synergies between the two aspects. Zhu et al (2019) (Zhu et al, 2019 constructed a comprehensive evaluation index system of the population-marine economy-environment system, adopted the coupling coordination degree model to identify the coupling coordination degree of the population-marine economyenvironment system, and found that the sustainable development of the population-marine economy-environment system gradually improves as the coupling coordination degree increases.…”

IntroductionIn the context of accelerating the construction of a marine power, relying on scientific and technological innovation to drive the high-quality growth of the marine economy and paying attention to the protection of the marine ecological environment are the strategic requirements for promoting the sustainable development of the marine industry in China.MethodsThis paper describes the development of marine industry as a complex system of marine economy-innovation-environment, that is, it describes the marine economy, marine innovation and marine environment as a complex system that interacts and restricts each other. Based on the theory of synergetics, a dynamic co-evolution model of the complex system of marine economy-innovation-environment is constructed, and the accelerating genetic algorithm is used to solve the model, so that the contribution degree of each subsystem and interaction effect between them are calculated. This paper uses this model to conduct an empirical study on the current situation of co-evolution of the complex system of marine economy-innovation-environment from 2003 to 2019 in China.ResultsThe research results show that: (1) The order degree of the systems of economy, innovation and environment of the marine industry in China is on the rise; (2) At present, the systems of innovation and environment of the marine industry in China are in an evolutionary state, while the system of economy is showing a “recession” trend; (3) There are competition and cooperation between the system of economy-innovation-environment of the marine industry in China at the same time. The system of economy-environment is in a lose-lose state. The system of economy and innovation and the system of innovation and environment are in a win-lose complementary relationship.DiscussionThis result is conducive to the current transformation and development of China's marine industry, adjusting the direction of marine science and technology inputs, optimizing the structure of marine science and technology outputs, enhancing the coordinated development level of regional and even national marine systems, and providing policy reference for promoting multi-objective collaborative governance in marine management department and accelerating the process of high-quality marine development.

“…Therefore, unmanaged fisheries experience competitive "race-to-fish" issues that affect sustainability outcomes. For decades, the blind pursuit of high fishing yields has resulted in problems such as excess input, declining fishery resources, declining quality of catches, poverty of fishermen, and ecological damage, which has severely constrained the process of sustainable development (Pomeroy et al, 2016;Spijkers et al, 2018;Tsilimigkas and Rempis, 2018;Chen and Zhou, 2020). However, it is difficult for resource users to maintain public resources through self-control, which by necessity must be regulated by the government (Ostrom, 2009).…”

A Proposed Scheme of Fishing Quota Allocation to Ensure the Sustainable Development of China’s Marine Capture Fisheries

et al. 2022

The sustainable development of marine capture fisheries (MCFs) plays a significant role in food security, economic development, and employment stability. The lack of information on the sustainability of MCFs, along with the inadequate management of fisheries output controls, has weakened China’s efforts towards a national catch limit target of no more than 10 million tons from capture fisheries until 2020. Furthermore, overfishing and fishery conflicts still exist. In order to try and resolve the above problems and achieve the sustainable use of fishery resources, an evaluation of the development status of these fisheries based on the coupling coordination model has been undertaken. The results show that the social, economic, and biological systems of MCFs in coastal areas of China interact with each other while their development is not coordinated, and regional differences exist. This study integrates the socioeconomic indicators using the catch-share program as a breakthrough methodology to resolve inconsistencies. The results under different allocation schemes suggest that the multifactor scheme is more equitable than the single-factor scheme, which enhances the fairness of the initial distribution.

“…Several countries have started to implement MSP as an approach to potentially reduce conflicts and foster sustainable use of marine resources. The MSP popularity has increased in the Belgian part of the North Sea (Douvere et al, 2007), Canada (Ban et al, 2013), Australia's Great Barrier (Day, 2015), Scotland (Smith & Jentoft, 2017) and the island of Crete in Greece (Tsilimigkas & Rempis, 2018). The MSP will likely keep expanding in the coming decade because has gained momentum globally as new countries start to discuss the development of ocean planning initiatives, marine spatial plans are currently under development in about 70 countries, but only 25 countries have marine spatial plans that are already implemented or at least government-approved (Frazão-Santos et al, 2020).…”

The increasing demands for physical space towards diverse maritime activities call for coherent planning and scientific knowledge to support the management of the marine the environment. Using secondary multi-scale geographic information gathered from national institutions, expert judgment and a multi-criteria analysis integrated with GIS tools, we aimed to identify potential synergies and conflicts between human activities occurring in the jurisdiction of the master harbor of Buenaventura in the Valle del Cauca department (CP01) in the Colombian Pacific coast. We identified 105 overlaps in which 5.04% were categorized with high CNI (Conflict Normalized Index), while 13 interactions were evaluated with the highest conflict value, representing 14 sectors/groups. Additionally, 12.97% of the overlaps were categorized with a medium number of overlaps (4-6 overlays use), specifically distributed inside the Buenaventura Bay. Conservation uses (Protected Areas – SINAP in Colombia) was consistent within all 13 incompatibilities and conflicts distribution along the study area was not homogenous. The methodological approach used in this study can be used to identify conflicts and synergies in human uses and activities in the marine and coastal environment through the implementation of a methodology adapted to the context of the area. It presents a technical contribution to future processes of Marine/Maritime Spatial Planning and the Integrated Management of the Coastal Zone of Colombia.
