Challenges for coastal zoning and sustainable development in the northern Patagonian fjords (Aysen, Chile)

Abstract: ABSTRACT. The Chilean government in 1994 enacted its National Policy for the Use of the Coastal Fringe (NPUCF) to promote sustainable development within the context of international requirements. One of the main NPUCF goals was to promote the harmonious coastal development by zoning of these coastal areas for defined uses. In this study, the first zoning process in Chile is discussed, which took place in the fjords and channels of Patagonia Aysén region. Its potential contribution to sustainable development is… Show more

“…The limited information available on intertidal ecology in Chilean fjords and channels restricts the understanding of patterns observed. Considering the demand for use of these coastal areas (e.g., for aquaculture, fisheries, tourism, etc., see Molinet, et al 2014), research into coastal ecology must be undertaken in order to provide the necessary knowledge to ensure that the correct decisions are taken in the context of sustainable development.…”

“…The assumption, although a truism, offers a framing to understand food and society in these distant realms. The sustainability of marine resources is of critical concern to the Chilean government given that loss or reduction of income has crucial economic consequences (Molinet et al, 2014). At a local scale, mollusks and fish are important dietary components in many fishing villages, and changes in their availability may be expected to reflect the pursuit of alternative foods.…”
