PEMSEA :: Tropical Coasts Vol. 16 No. 1: The Marine Economy in Times of Change $0.00

2009-3 Tropical Coasts Vol. 16 No. 1: The Marine Economy in Times of Change

The ocean environment offers tremendous economic opportunities, but it also faces considerable challenges from overexploitation of natural resources, pollution, climate change, and the resulting threats to marine and coastal species. All countries of the region have a vital stake in ensuring that the use of ocean resources is conducted in a way that protects valuable ecosystems and the services they provide for present and future generations. The economic value of goods and services provided by coastal and marine living and non-living resources, such as mangroves, coral reefs, seagrass, mudflats, estuaries and sandy beaches, are particularly relevant given their contribution to food security, poverty alleviation and socioeconomic development. This issue of Tropical Coasts presents the initial results of the economic contribution of the ocean to the countries of the East Asian Seas region. By identifying the economic contribution of the ocean sector, policymakers can be more aware of how external events, such as climate change, sea level rise, degradation and destruction of natural resources and pollution impact on economic growth and prosperity.
