The coastal area of Tanalili District has many coastal and marine natural resources. However, its utilization has not been well managed and has resulted in uncontrolled utilization. This research aimed to: (1) Identify the condition and potential of coastal natural resources (2) Analyze the suitability of land to its designation (3) Integrate land use zoning (4) Determine coastal and marine area development strategies. This research was conducted in January to March 2018. Potential of coastal resources, land suitability and zoning were analyzed using a Geographic Information System (GIS) and SWOT for development analysis. The results of this study indicate the area of 96.38 Ha mangrove ecosystem, seagrass 31,68 Ha, coral reefs 192,81 Ha. Zoning area showed a general utilization area of 6.132,49 Ha which was divided into 4 zones; aquaculture zone with an area of 1.012,31 Ha, capture fisheries zone with an area of 4.875,76 Ha, a port zone with an area of 46,91 Ha and other zones covering an area of 197,51 Ha. The area of marine protected area is 1,393.99 Ha and the regional sea lanes for shipping activities is 526.88 Ha. The results of the development policy analysis were the provision of a potential data base, the formation of business groups in accordance with the potential, compilation of management plans according to zoning, improvement of human resources quality both the community and related stakeholders and rehabilitation programs to control physical damage to the coast and ecosystems by involving the community.

Abstract This study characterizes the gill net fishery at Colônia de Pescadores Z13 (CPZ13), in Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro, and its relationship with the marine protected area ‘Monumento Natural do Arquipélago das Ilhas Cagarras – MoNa Cagarras’, describing the fleet and fishing gears, identifying fishing spots, species and their associations by gillnet type. From June 2012 to May 2013, every Tuesday to Sunday, gill net landings were monitored and fishers interviewed regarding their catch. Small boats (dory whaleboats) are used to set three types of gillnets: “Corvineira” (target species – whitemouth croaker), “linguadeira” (target species – flounders) and “rede-alta” (target species – bluefish). Fifty-nine species within 37 families were captured at 14 fishing spots, showing association with bottom type and distance from shore. The use of fisher’s local ecological knowledge defines gear placement at specific sites targeting fisheries resources. All fishing sites are not within the limits of MoNa Cagarras but would benefit from management plans including an MPA buffering zone.

The Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996, recognises customary law as an independent and original source of law, subject to the Constitution itself and legislation that specifically deals with customary law. As recognised by the Constitutional Court in Alexkor Ltd vs the Richtersveld Community (2004), customary law, as an independent source of law, may give rise to rights including rights to access and use natural resources. Rights to access and use natural resources are often comprehensively regulated by legislation. Conflicts between customary law and legislation relevant to natural resources may arise, as evidenced in the case of Mr Gongqose, who along with several other community members were caught fishing in the Dwesa-Cwebe Marine Protected Area situated off the Eastern Cape coastline. Notwithstanding their claims to be exercising their customary rights to fish in the area, they were convicted in the Magistrate’s Court for certain offences in terms of the Marine Living Resources Act (1998), under which the marine protected area had been established. Their appeal to the High Court proved unsuccessful and the Supreme Court of Appeal was tasked with considering the relationship between their customary rights to fish and legislation purportedly extinguishing these rights. The SCA’s judgment in Gongqose & Others vs Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries & Others (2018) is the first of its kind in South Africa to consider the extinguishment of customary rights to access and use natural resources through post-constitutional legislation. This note critically considers the guidance the SCA provided on proving the existence of customary rights to access and use natural resources, and the manner in which they may be extinguished through legislation. While the focus is on marine living resources, the lessons emerging from this case are relevant to other natural resource sectors.

Whale sharks are a major attraction for tourist divers and snorkelers in South Ari Atoll, Maldives. Yet without information regarding the use and economic extent of the attraction, it is difficult to prioritize conservation or implement effective management plans. Using empirical recreational data and generalized mixed models, this study provides the first economic valuation—via direct spend—of whale shark tourism in Maldives. We estimate that direct expenditure on whale shark excursions in the South Ari Marine Protected Area for 2012–2013 at US$7.6 and $9.4 million, respectively. These expenditures are based on an estimate of 72 to 78 thousand tourists who are involved in whale shark excursions annually. This level of visitation and expenditure highlights the need to implement regulations and management which can safeguard the sustainability of the industry through ensuring guest satisfaction and whale shark conservation.

This study compares density and size structure of kelp Lessonia berteroana and sea urchins Loxechinus albus inside and outside a port concession area in Caldera. Greater abundance and larger adult individuals in populations of both benthic resources in this zone preliminarily indicates that this might be replicating a marine protected area. In the future, this port concession could contribute to the conservation of benthic resources as a reference site, without access to fisheries, useful for validating or implementing measures and actions in management plans or other instruments to support conservation.

Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are a common management approach that applied to protect and conserve coastal and marine resources in the world. However, in some areas where these approach have been implemented, the goals and targets did not proceed as expected and resulted in methods and objects of study that are relatively irrelevant to the existing conditions. Therefore, a review and more efforts are required to determine the efficacy of the MPAs management. The community based management of marine protected area at Waha Village can be regarded as a manifestation of the local people to meet their needs by utilizing natural resources sustainably. Therefore, this study aims to asses the ecological and socio-economic condition as well as community institutions to determine whether the community based management of the MPA is effective. Ecological data collection was divided into several indicators such as coral reef, seagrass and coral fish community condition that was collected through direct survey using SCUBA. Whereas socio-economic and institutional data was obtained in three stages include observation, semi-structured interviews and surveys. The percentage of live coral cover on MPA of Waha Village was 55,83%. There were 28 species from 9 families and 14 genuses of target fish found in MPA of Waha Village. Seagrass density was 299.87 stands / m2 with average value of seagrass presentation was 63,25%, indicating that seagrass is in good condition. Based on the effectiveness analysis using the Amoeba technique, the indicator values were generally better in performance than the critical threshold value (CTV) indicator. This is because these values have not passed the CTV. The degree of effectiveness of community based management of MPA at Waha Village was 79,17%, suggesting that these management approach is very effective to conserve marine natural resources in the area.Keywords : Effectiveness, management, protected area.
