“…The socio-economic assessments are frequently used in the first two steps of the CZM process, "problem definition" and "management options" (40% of the papers for each of these purposes), and more rarely for the ex post evaluation of management (less than 20% of the papers deal with "response impacts"). This result confirms that measurements of the CZM program's effectiveness are rare (Knecht et al, 1996;Olsen et al, 1997;McFadden, 2007) because of the overall lack of outcome-related information and data (Knecht et al, 1996;Carneiro, 2011) and "the difficulty involved in selecting criteria to measure the system's performance" (Nobre, 2011, p. 282).…”

Cooperation between the social and natural sciences has become essential in order to encompass all the dimensions of coastal zone management. Socio-economic approaches are increasingly recommended to complement integrated assessment in support of these initiatives. A systematic review of the academic literature was carried out in order to analyze the main types of socio-economic assessments used to inform the coastal zone management process as well as their effectiveness. A corpus of 1682 articles published between 1992 and 2011 was identified by means of the representative coverage approach, from which 170 were selected by applying inclusion/exclusion criteria and then classified using a content analysis methodology. The percentage of articles that mention the use of socio-economic assessment in support of coastal zone management initiatives is increasing but remains relatively low. The review examines the links between the issues addressed by integrated assessments and the chosen analytical frameworks as well as the various economic assessment methods which are used in the successive steps of the coastal zone management process. The results show that i) analytical frameworks such as 'risk and vulnerability', 'DPSIR', 'valuation', 'ecosystem services' and 'preferences' are likely to lead to effective integration of social sciences in coastal zone management research while 'integration', 'sustainability' and 'participation' remain difficult to operationalize, ii) risk assessments are insufficiently implemented in developing countries, and iii) indicator systems in support of multi-criteria analyses could be used during more stages of the coastal zone management process. Finally, it is suggested that improved collaboration between science and management would require that scientists currently involved in coastal zone management processes further educate themselves in integrated assessment approaches and participatory methodologies.

“…The object of coastal community perception is to analyze the outcome of implementing coastal management policies and evaluating the condition of coastal resources [21], identifying environmental impacts and monitoring effective management [22], and evaluating the performance of government collaboration in supporting coastal management [23]. The four main issues in coastal areas are coastal ecosystems protection, accessibility, coastal management and hazardous waste management [24]. These issues have been accommodated in this study through a questionnaire.…”

The Covid-19 pandemic has generally impacted coastal activities, including mariculture development. A decrease or increase in aquaculture production will influence the aquatic environment and socio-economic of coastal communities. The aims of this study were (1) to analyze mariculture production in Ekas Bay during the Covid-19 pandemic and (2) to evaluate the coastal management based on the coastal community perspective. The study analysis uses both of analysis of comparative and analysis of descriptive. The results showed that the number of floating marine cages and fishery production had increased by more than 500% during the pandemic compared to before the pandemic. From the results of the dept-interview with coastal communities and fisheries extension officers, one of the drivers for increasing the amount of marine production, especially lobster commodity, is the implementation of government policies related to lobster management. Coastal management implementation has a good category with 65,03% of response assessment. The study also evaluated household waste management, resulting in a poor category with 56.65% of respondents’ assessment. Household waste needs managed properly to minimize the risk of environmental degradation and decrease marine resources in Ekas Bay.

“…The term integrated coastal zone management (ICZM) was coined to describe management efforts in the coastal zone that are multisectoral with intergovernmental sociopolitical and interdisciplinary scientific involvement. ICZM addresses the unique situation of the coastal zone as an interface between land and water and thus subject to cumulative impacts from inland sources (Sorensen, 1993(Sorensen, , 1997CicinSain, 1993;Hildebrand & Norrera, 1992;Knecht, 1993;Knecht, Cicin-Sain, & Fisk, 1996;Thia-Eng, 1993). Examples of ICZM can be found around the world (Hinrichsen, 1998), displaying differing degrees of success.…”

This article presents the results of a three-year effort at applying information technology to the problem of collaborative natural resource management in San Diego Bay. As such, it represents an approach to integrated coastal zone management (ICZM). This effort resulted from a collaboration between the San Diego Supercomputer Center at the University of California, San Diego and the San Diego Bay Interagency Water Quality Panel for the purpose of (1) developing an environmental data repository to facilitate the acquisition and sharing of data and (2) the development of a visual model of the bay in support of the development of a comprehensive, coordinated management plan for San Diego Bay. It was determined from this study that information technology is an important and key component to ICZM but that sociopolitical factors may override the benefits of decision-support systems and should be considered at the outset of any project of this kind.
