Description & Coverage
Description:

There is overwhelming evidence that marine resources are being overexploited throughout the world. In an effort to conserve the natural resources of the world’s oceans, new methods, technologies, and practices in fishery and marine resource management must be implemented.

Progressive Engineering Practices in Marine Resource Management combines scientific, ecological, and engineering approaches involved in the sustainable management of natural resources. Featuring coverage on key topics relating to environmental management, maritime spatial planning, sustainable fisheries, and waste water treatment, this publication is a critical reference source for fishery associations, scientists, environmental management authorities, and water management directorates interested in emerging technologies and innovative resource management techniques.

Coverage:

The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:

  • Environmental Management
  • Fishery Management
  • Maritime Spatial Planning
  • Sediment Analysis
  • Stock Assessment
  • Sustainable Fisheries
  • Waste water treatment
Reviews & Statements

International contributors in engineering, fisheries, marine biology, and environmental planning report on engineering and marine resource management in the Mediterranean and Black Sea regions. Contributors offer perspectives from Bulgaria, Greece, Macedonia, Ukraine, Israel, Albania, Turkey, and Portugal. Section 1 describes the implications of engineering practices and computerized methods for environmental modeling. Section 2 examines methods and policies related to fish stock indicators and stock assessment. Section 3 details concepts and approaches in fishery and marine policy, regional management bodies, statistical data analyses, and marine spatial planning. Some specific topics include Black Sea sprat, fishery indicators in the Mediterranean and Black Seas, stock assessment of anchovy in the Northern Black Sea and the Sea of Azov, the role of the Black Sea Commission in sustainable management, and time series database analysis on fisheries in Greece.
