“…There is increasing recognition that fisheries management should shift from a target-species approach to an ecosystem-based one where ecosystems are managed holistically across all user sectors (Botsford et al 1997, Pikitch et al 2004, Morishita 2008. The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Seas makes it a mandate for countries to implement ecosystem-based fisheries management.…”

Seabirds, turtles and sharks are often of conservation concern because they are frequently bycatch in fisheries. Fisheries managers shifting from a target species focus to an ecosystembased approach are being required to consider the impact of fisheries on non-target species. There are a range of complementary management tools that help reduce bycatch, such as gear restrictions, temporal restrictions, and bycatch reduction devices. One management approach that is increasingly being considered is fisheries closures. We tested the utility of 3 closure approaches for the improved protection of bycatch species in the South African pelagic longline fishery. As there was some variation where and when different groups of bycatch species were caught, we found that temporary spatial closures were the most effective strategy for both protecting bycatch and minimizing the cost to fishers. This is logical because having mobile closures in space and time provides more flexibility than permanent spatial closures or seasonal closures. However these benefits need to be traded off against the costs and problems of implementing temporary spatial closures. Of the 2 sub-optimal strategies, we discovered that seasonal closures are significantly less effective than spatial closures.

“…Pada kondisi tersebut, integrasi sudut pandang dan pengetahuan dan nelayan akan menjadi masukan yang berarti bagi pengelolaan (Grant dan Berkes 2007;Morishita 2008;Mathew 2011). Di samping pengendalian dan perbaikan teknis penangkapan, perencanaan aksi pengelolaan sebaiknya juga memberikan penekanan pada upaya pengembangan sistem data statistik sehingga dapat dimanfaatkan secara aplikatif bagi upaya pengembangan pengelolaan perikanan berbasis sains.…”

“…Thus EAOM seeks to preserve the ecosystem in its entirety and safeguard ecosystem functions not just commercially valuable fish species [8,141,161]. However, although EAOM is being practiced by many developed countries [142,[162][163][164], 11 As a consequence of scientific consensus, nation-state practices and international agreements, international law now stipulates that an ecosystem approach be used for ocean management [142] .…”

Despite the growing scientific literature on cold-water corals (CWC) there appears to be no studies that address the economic values or economic management of the resource. This paper presents an overview of the goods and services of CWC and their associated biodiversity. Use and non-use values associated with CWC are presented, and the methods relevant for assessing their valuation are discussed. The impact of human induced disturbance on CWC is reviewed, in order to indicate how knowledge of CWC values can be used by policy makers in the management of CWC as a habitat and vehicle for biodiversity.
