“…En las últimas décadas se ha desarrollado un interés creciente en la comunidad científica por los ambientes costeros, por cuanto conforman un amplio complejo de ecosistemas integrados; particularmente aquellos localizados en áreas tropicales (Ramírez 1996, Ferrol-Schulte et al 2013). …”

Se analizó la composición y abundancia del zooplancton de la laguna El Morro en la isla de Margarita, Venezuela, durante el periodo de surgencia (marzo-mayo 2011) y de relajación (junio-agosto 2011). Las muestras fueron recolectadas en 6 estaciones de las diferentes zonas de la laguna. Se realizaron calados con una red de plancton de 333 µm durante 10 minutos. Se midió in situ la temperatura, salinidad y oxígeno disuelto, además de nutrientes. Se registraron valores medios de temperatura de 29.7 ºC, salinidad de 36 ups, oxígeno disuelto de 5.9 mg.L-1. La concentración de nutrientes fue baja (medias de 0.12; 0.04; 0.03 mg.L-1 para nitrato, nitrito y fosfato, respectivamente). Se detectaron diferencias significativas temporales con mayores registros en la temporada de relajación, mientras que espacialmente no mostró diferencias, a pesar que en las estaciones internas (Est. 4,5,6) se obtuvo mayor abundancia. Se identificaron quince grupos zooplanctónicos, determinándose nueve especies del grupo Copepoda, dos de Cladocera, una de Decapoda, Tunicada y Rotifera y diferentes formas larvarias de distintos taxa. Las larvas de crustáceos presentaron la abundancia media y relativa más alta (47738 ind.m-3 y 46.83%, respectivamente), seguido del copépodo Oithona nana (31740 ind.m-3 y 25.94%, respectivamente) y Paracalanus quasimodo (12958 ind.m-3 y 8.47%, respectivamente). Esta laguna involucra la estacionalidad surgencia-relajación como un efecto importante en la distribución y abundancia del zooplancton.

“…Despite the near enough omnipresent consensus in environmental governance literature that higher social participation is indispensable (Armitage et al, 2009;Glaser et al, 2010;Wever et al, 2012;Ferrol-Schulte et al, 2013;Jones, 2014), most Brazilian MPAs and associated governing instruments (e.g., management plans or councils) are still not co-designed with local social constituencies (Diegues, 2008;Gerhardinger et al, 2011Gerhardinger et al, , 2014aOuvidoria do Mar, 2012, 2013Oliveira Júnior et al, 2016). Sustaining long-term collaboration in coastal and ocean governance thus is a wicked problem in Brazil, where institutional and resource provision is highly unstable; and where the political culture of social participation in MPAs still rarely fuels vibrant public environmental stewardship over the longer term (Marroni and Asmus, 2013;Trimble et al, 2014;De Freitas et al, 2015;Gerhardinger et al, 2015b;Serafini et al, 2017), with few exceptions (Glaser et al, 2005).…”

HIGHLIGHTS• The Anthropocene compels unlocking of ocean-related network capabilities.• Orchestration of local, regional, and global knowledge networks can augment transformative capacity.• Transdisciplinary network diagnostics are promising social learning tools.• Strategic advice for transformational research in ocean territories are provided. This paper dedicates to understanding of what is needed to achieve the transformation of ocean governance. Based on the theory of transformative agency conceptualized in a multi-level governance context, we build on recent novel inter-and transdisciplinary research in Brazil to explore the opportunities for transformation in the dynamic, complex, and multi-level field of ocean governance. We focus this analysis on three transformation processes toward developing a socially and ecologically coherent marine protected area network as the core of a marine spatial planning process for enhanced ecosystem-based polycentric governance of the country's Exclusive Economic Zone. The findings illuminate leverage points for achieving (much needed) transformation in Brazilian ocean governance and potentially beyond. These include: connecting transformative actions into coherent narratives and testing strategic advice derived from theories of transformative agency to promote regime shifts in ocean governance systems; setting of more ambitious social mobilization targets; fostering orchestration of knowledge-networks considering multiple issues, territorial and institutional levels; implementing institutional learning experiments; supporting transformational trajectories toward co-evolutionary, polycentric, ecosystem-and area-based ocean governance systems; and pursuing gradual, incremental structural understanding of Gerhardinger et al. Healing the Blue Amazon with Knowledge-Action Networks a given knowledge network field as a major driver of catalyzing transformative change. Hereby, this article advances understanding of how to better navigate the transformation toward enhanced sustainability in an important part of the Atlantic and hence of our global ocean.

“…This study applies the SYSMAR DSS for ICZM and has the ability to integrate the multidisciplinary environment as a complex and variable system. However, the result must be interpreted with caution, because Ferrol-Schulte et al [32] revealed that the researchers and practitioners have been blurring the boundaries between conservation, development, poverty-alleviation and natural resource ecosystem management in Indonesia. The final result of the suitability map from all parameters in the vicinity of the Galang Island can be seen in Figure 6.…”

Indonesia has abundant and potential coastal resources for future development of mariculture industry activities. However, complex problem is found in the land and coastal zone utilization, among others: coastal environment degradation, resources depletion, conflict and overlapping utilization of marine area. New perspective of Decision Support System (DSS) for integrated coastal zone management (ICZM) can be used to solve this complexity with respect to the results of high resolution of hydrodynamic and wave numerical model, water quality, and ICZM. The aim of this paper is to determine the suitable site for the implementation of sustainable future development of mariculture in Galang Island, Riau Province, Indonesia. A suitability map of geographic information system based on ICZM is indicated by sixteen thematic maps. Implementations of the comprehensive ICZM of DSS criteria prove that Galang Island has a bright potential of Grouper mariculture development industry by sustainable suitable area of about 12,940 hectares.
