“…They complained that the fishing sector has been forgotten by the government, and that there is no clear strategy to drive this sector and make it competitive. Some of these ideas coincide with research findings on the study communities reported elsewhere (see Pérez-Sánchez and Muir 2003).…”

“…But only the cooperatives get permits to exploit oysters; private fishers have permits for other lagoon species. However, according to the fishers and fishing officials interviewed in this study, the lagoon and sea are accessed by many fishers from these and neighboring communities who do not hold any legal permit (see also Pérez-Sánchez and Muir 2003).…”

“…A government fisheries officer explained that these projects were implemented by the government as a strategy for diversifying the economic opportunities of local people who lack official government permits to fish. The Mexican government has promoted these types of aquaculture programs in Tabasco and other regions of the country as an income and employment generation activity with the aim to reduce pressures on overexploited fisheries (SEMARNAT 2012;Ramírez-Rodríguez 2015;Pérez-Sánchez and Muir 2003;DeWalt et al 2002). In Tabasco and other neighboring oil producer provinces, the federal government has also provided subsidies to diversify local activities in light of the impacts that fishery and oil related legislation has had on fishers' livelihoods (Arias-Rodríguez and Ireta-Guzmán 2009).…”

This paper explores some key challenges the Mexican government may face when implementing climate change adaptation initiatives in coastal lagoon communities in the Mexican state of Tabasco, in the Gulf of Mexico. I discuss some challenges state initiatives of this type may encounter considering the existence of local contentious political issues among various actors -fishers and the state-owned oil industry -that are at the core of the emergence of coastal environmental changes in the study site. A close analysis of local political, economic and environmental processes in coastal lagoon communities illustrates the existence of contentious issues among powerful actors over territory and its resources. It is in the context of these local, on the ground, issues that I argue that climate change adaptation interventions become highly political. I also argue that climate change policy analysis must be done in light of past and failed state interventions in Tabasco that have had a negative impact on ecosystems and fishers' livelihoods. My analysis of climate change adaptation initiatives and fishers' views on their local environmental problems is based on political ecology approaches to environmental narratives and critical literature on climate change.

“…This indicators, were also identified in other studies presented in the literature (Ferraz, 2006;IED-BIG, 2001, 2002Perez-Sanchez and Muir, 2003;Scott, 1998) and were considered relevant for the study area. Furthermore, buffers considering distance from routes (streets and roads), distance from urban centers, distance from traditional communities (Caiçaras) and distance from marinas and airports were included.…”

ABSTRAKSistem Informasi Nelayan Pintar (SINP) adalah sebuah aplikasi android yang menampikan informasi-informasi penting untuk para nelayan dalam melaut. Informasi SINP terdiri dari informasi daerah penangkapan ikan, cuaca, harga ikan, dan dinamika laut. Makalah ini bertujuan mengulas beberapa hal tentang sistem Nelayan Pintar di Indonesia yaitu: (1) deskripsi sistem kerja sisten SINP, (2) gambaran demografi nelayan calon pengguna NISP dan (3) persepsi nelayan terhadap kemanfaatan beberapa informasi yang ditampilkan dalam perangkat SIN. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa menurut nelayan, informasi yang dirasa sangat bermanfaat adalah peta DPI dan prakiraan cuaca sebelum melaut. Prakiraan cuaca ini penting untuk keselamatan nelayan. Dalam pertanyaan lanjutan tentang manfaat informasi Daerah Penangkapan Ikan ini, responden 84,1 % menyatakan bawah informasi atau peta DPI meningkatkan hasil tangkapan dibanding tidak membaca peta DPI. Peta DPI dapat diperoleh oleh nelayan di setiap pelabuhan perikanan seluruh Indonesia. Para nelayan juga merasa bahwa sistem SINP cukup mudah untuk dioperasikan. PENDAHULUANInformasi dan teknologi merupakan komponen penting dalam keberhasilan ekonomi untuk berbagai sektor seperti pertanian dan perikanan di daerah-daerah terpencil dan daerah pesisir (Omar et al., 2011). Pada umumnya di Indonesia, pola penangkapan ikan oleh nelayan, terutama dalam skala kecil adalah bersifat tradisional. Usaha kegiatan penangkapan ikan merupakan warisan turun-temurun dengan memperhatikan kondisi lingkungan sekitar, seperti pola bintang, awan, dan gelombang. Usaha penangkapan ikan oleh nelayan tersebut menjadi usaha yang sifatnya berburu ikan. Kurangnya informasi mengenai daerah potensi penangkapan ikan mengakibatkan lokasi yang diperkirakan banyak ikannya oleh nelayan terkadang ternyata
