Factors affecting coastal resource management and its benefits are listed. Examples of coastal resource management processes and engineering approaches are provided, including coastal habitat management. The document concludes with a list of references.
MARINE PROTECTED AREA
This document summarizes a seminar on marine protected areas. It defines marine protected areas as areas designated to protect marine ecosystems, habitats, and species. There are different types of marine protected areas that prohibit various commercial and recreational activities. Marine protected areas are needed to conserve biodiversity by protecting rare species, maintain ecosystem resilience to change, and allow for scientific study. Evidence shows that marine protected areas enhance species diversity and biomass both inside and outside their boundaries. The public benefits from opportunities to experience and learn about healthy marine environments through multi-use marine protected areas.
Coral Reefs
Coral reefs are ecosystems located in warm, shallow ocean waters that are home to many species. They are made up of coral polyps that secrete calcium carbonate to form hard structures. Coral reefs come in several types - fringing reefs lie adjacent to shores, barrier reefs lie further offshore, and atolls form from sunken barrier reefs, enclosing lagoons. Coral reefs support a diversity of life through symbiotic relationships and provide important benefits to coastlines and economies. However, they are threatened by human activities such as pollution, overfishing, and coastal development.
Marine protected area (MPAs)
Marine protected area Marine protected areas (MPA) are protected areas of seas, oceans, estuaries or in the US, the Great Lakes .[2] These marine areas can come in many forms ranging from wildlife refuges to research facilities.[3] MPAs restrict human activity for a conservation purpose, typically to protect natural or cultural resources.[4] Such marine resources are protected by local, state, territorial, native, regional, national, or international authorities and differ substantially among and between nations. This variation includes different limitations on development, fishing practices, fishing seasons and catch limits, moorings and bans on removing or disrupting marine life. In some situations (such as with the Phoenix Islands Protected Area), MPAs also provide revenue for countries, potentially equal to the income that they would have if they were to grant companies permissions to fish.[5]
On 28 October 2016 in Hobart, Australia, the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources agreed to establish the first Antarctic and largest marine protected area in the world encompassing 1.55 million km2 (600,000 sq mi) in the Ross Sea.[6] Other large MPAs are in the Indian, Pacific, and Atlantic Oceans, in certain exclusive economic zones of Australia and overseas territories of France, the United Kingdom and the United States, with major (990,000 square kilometres (380,000 sq mi) or larger) new or expanded MPAs by these nations since 2012—such as Natural Park of the Coral Sea, Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument, Coral Sea Commonwealth Marine Reserve and South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands Marine Protected Area. When counted with MPAs of all sizes from many other countries, as of August 2016 there are more than 13,650 MPAs, encompassing 2.07% of the world's oceans, with half of that area – encompassing 1.03% of the world's oceans – receiving complete "no-take" designation.[7]
Economic importance of coral reefs
This presentation deals with various economic benefits associated with reefs and associated ecosystems.
Climate change and its effects on marine life ppt.
Climate change is caused by an increase in carbon dioxide that warms the atmosphere and affects weather patterns over long periods of time. This warming climate has negatively impacted Arctic marine species like seals, polar bears, and right whales by reducing sea ice habitat for seals and polar bears and decreasing the key food source of right whales. Individual actions like using energy efficient appliances, insulating homes, and taking public transportation can help address climate change.
Conservation of marine ecosystem
Marine conservation aims to protect ocean ecosystems through planned management to prevent overexploitation of resources. It addresses issues like species loss, habitat degradation, and ecosystem changes. Conservation techniques include marine protected areas with different zones allowing varying human activities. Technologies help protect endangered species and habitats while benefiting fishermen. Notable protected areas include the Great Barrier Reef and Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument. Laws govern conservation internationally and within countries.
Mangrove & It,s threats
Mangroves are salt-tolerant plants found in tropical and sub-tropical coastlines that provide important environmental and socioeconomic benefits. They act as coastal buffers against storms and erosion. However, mangroves in Sri Lanka are threatened by pollution, development, and harvesting. Protecting mangroves requires limiting coastal development and runoff, reforestation efforts, and community education about their importance to ecosystems and livelihoods.

Mangroves & Seagrasses PR10_v0310
Mangroves and seagrasses are important coastal ecosystems. Mangroves are woody plants adapted to saline environments that provide coastal protection by reducing erosion and wave action. They serve as nurseries for many marine species. Seagrasses form underwater meadows in tropical and temperate waters through specialized adaptations like root systems. They trap sediments, improve water quality, and serve as an important habitat and food source for wildlife. Both ecosystems are threatened by human activities and have lost significant coverage over the past century.
Marine Ecology
Marine ecology is the study of relationships between marine organisms and their physical and biological environments. Key features of marine ecology include the vast size of the ocean, its depth and continuous circulation. Marine environments can be divided horizontally into coastal, neritic and oceanic zones, and vertically into euphotic, mesopelagic and bathypelagic zones. Estuaries are productive ecosystems where freshwater mixes with saltwater, supporting diverse biota and acting as nurseries for many species. Mangroves and coral reefs are biologically rich ecosystems that protect coastlines and build land.

This document provides an overview of oceanography, outlining the 5 oceans, key topics within oceanography like physical, chemical, and biological oceanography. It also discusses the history of ocean exploration from early Polynesian navigation techniques to modern voyages that have advanced our understanding of ocean depths and life, including the discovery of the Marianas Trench.
Coral reef presentation
This document summarizes key information about coral reefs. It defines coral reefs as mounds or ridges composed of living coral, coral skeletons, and other organisms' deposits. Coral reefs originated in the mid-18th century and are found throughout tropical oceans between 30 degrees north and south latitude. Coral reefs are under threat from climate change and pollution and play an important role in biodiversity, coastal protection, medicine, and tourism.
Mangroves power point
Mangroves are salt-tolerant trees found in warm coastal tropical and sub-tropical regions that provide important ecological functions. They protect coastal lands from storms and erosion by stabilizing sediments with their complex root systems. Mangroves also serve as vital habitat for many marine and coastal species. However, around half of the world's mangroves have been destroyed by human activities like clearing for development, aquaculture, and harvesting wood.
Benthos - types and their role in ecosystem
Benthos, the benthic organism which is play a big role in ecosystem. There has a brief description on the type of this organisms and roles.
Coral Reefs: Biodiversity and Beauty at Risk
Coral reefs are the largest structures built by living organisms and are home to 25% of ocean species, yet they are at severe risk. Coral reefs provide many benefits like fisheries, shoreline protection, tourism, and medicines, valued at $233 billion to $1.3 trillion annually. However, threats from overfishing, pollution, disease, bleaching due to warming oceans, and ocean acidification have already damaged many reefs and are projected to severely damage most reefs by 2050 if issues are not addressed.
Marine ecosystem
The document summarizes several marine ecosystems. It describes how oceans cover 70% of the Earth's surface and include shorelines like tidal flats and mangrove forests. Specific ecosystems are found around the world, depending on climate and geography. These include coral reefs, estuaries, salt marshes, mangrove forests, and the deep sea. Salt marshes are coastal wetlands flooded by tides that are dominated by salt-tolerant grasses. The intertidal zone is the shore area above and below the water line during tides, containing habitats for starfish and coral. Mangroves are salt-tolerant trees adapted to harsh coastal conditions.
Marine protected areas
Marine protected areas (MPAs) are areas of ocean dedicated to protecting biodiversity and resources through legal means. They include habitats like coral reefs, seagrass beds, and mangroves. MPAs are important for protecting ecosystems from threats like development, pollution, overfishing, and climate change, which can damage populations and coral reefs. Effective MPAs are designed to be large, simple shapes to minimize edge effects, protect critical habitats, maintain connectivity between areas, and support ecosystem functions.
Marine and coastal ecosystems
Marine and coastal ecosystems are diverse and complex systems. The marine ecosystem is the largest ecosystem on Earth, covering over 70% of the planet's surface. It contains a variety of habitat types, from coral reefs and kelp forests to deep sea and open ocean environments. Coastal ecosystems like mangroves, sandy shores, and estuaries exist at the interface between land and sea. These ecosystems support a high level of biodiversity but are threatened by rising sea levels and ocean acidification due to climate change. Careful management is needed to protect these important ecosystems.
Marine parks and marine protected areas
National parks and marine protected areas are established by governments to protect important ecosystems and biodiversity. National parks strictly protect land areas for wildlife conservation and do not allow activities like forestry or grazing. Marine protected areas similarly protect coastal waters and seabeds. India has over 100 national parks on land encompassing around 40,000 square kilometers, and 5 marine national parks in its coastal waters protecting areas like coral reefs and sea turtle nesting beaches. Protected areas provide benefits like preserving habitats and species, supporting fisheries, and allowing research and education activities.
Claasification of zooplankton and Benthos
Zooplankton are small aquatic animals that drift or float in water and rely on currents for movement. Without environmental controls, the entire world could be covered by a 3-foot thick layer of zooplankton in just 130 days. Zooplankton are classified based on size from femtoplankton to megaplankton. They also have holoplankton that remain plankton their whole life and meroplankton that are partially planktonic. Common phyla include protozoa, cnidaria, chaetognatha, annelida, mollusca, arthropoda, and chordata.
Seagrass lecture
This document provides an overview of seagrass ecosystems, including what seagrasses are, their associated flora and fauna, ecosystem functions, habitat connectivity, and disturbances and threats. Seagrasses are flowering plants that live wholly submerged in salt or brackish water, providing crucial primary production and habitat. They support high levels of biodiversity and perform important functions like wave attenuation and sediment stabilization. However, seagrass beds face numerous natural and anthropogenic disturbances that can degrade their ecosystems, such as hurricanes, overfishing, eutrophication, and sedimentation from coastal development. More research and conservation efforts are needed to protect these vital coastal habitats.

Coral reefs theory, types, formation
Coral reefs are built from the limestone skeletons of stony corals and cover around 100,000 square miles globally. They are located in shallow, tropical waters and grow gradually as coral polyps multiply and their skeletons accumulate. There are three main types of reefs - fringing reefs adjacent to land, barrier reefs separated from land by lagoons, and atolls which are ring-shaped reefs surrounding a central lagoon. Reefs support tremendous biodiversity but are threatened by human impacts like pollution, coastal development, overfishing, and climate change which can cause coral bleaching or increase ocean acidification.
CODE OF CONDUCT FOR RESPONSIBLE FISHERIES
The document discusses the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries (CCRF) established by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations. It originated from calls at FAO meetings in the early 1990s for more responsible fishing practices and management. The CCRF was finalized after international consultations from 1992-1995. It sets out voluntary principles and international standards for sustainable fishing. The CCRF aims to ensure effective conservation, management and development of living aquatic resources while also recognizing the nutritional, economic and cultural importance of fisheries.
Coastal and marine ecosystem
This document provides an introduction to marine ecosystems. It discusses the key characteristics of marine ecosystems, including the biotic and abiotic components. It also describes several types of marine ecosystems in more detail, including oceans, estuaries, on-shore ecosystems, and coral reefs. For each ecosystem type, it outlines the defining features, environmental factors, and common plant and animal species found there. The goal is to study and understand these different marine environments and the life they support.
Integrated coastal zone management
This document provides an overview of integrated coastal zone management and the relevant international, federal, and state players and legislation involved. It discusses how coastal zone management aims to balance environmental, economic, health and human activities where land meets water. Integrated coastal zone management specifically promotes a sustainable and multidisciplinary approach to managing coastal areas. The document then outlines the various international organizations, US federal agencies and legislation, and Puerto Rico state agencies and laws involved in coastal zone planning and regulation.
Coral Reefs
This presentation is for my school assessment on global environments. I chose coral reefs. My project explains coral reefs and the geographical processes involved with it as well.
Function of coral reef..
Coral reefs are the most biologically diverse marine ecosystems, providing habitat for approximately 25% of all ocean species despite occupying less than 1% of the ocean floor. Coral reefs are valuable both ecologically and economically, with their value estimated between $30-172 billion annually from tourism, fisheries, shoreline protection, and medicine. Coral reef ecosystems extend from coastal mangrove forests and seagrass beds, which stabilize shorelines, filter pollutants, and provide nurseries for coral reef organisms. The three types of coral reef formations are fringing reefs along the shore, barrier reefs separated from the shore by lagoons, and atolls surrounding deep central lagoons.
Coral reefs.ppt
A coral reef is an underwater ecosystem characterized by reef-building corals. Coral reefs are important for many different reasons aside from supposedly containing the most diverse ecosystems on the planet. They:
• protect coastlines from the damaging effects of wave action and tropical storms
• provide habitats and shelter for many marine organisms
• are the source of nitrogen and other essential nutrients for marine food chains
• assist in carbon and nitrogen fixing
• nutrient recycling.

Interactions among Living Things in Coral Reefs.pptx
Coral reefs are formed by coral polyps and other organisms that deposit calcium carbonate. They are found in warm, tropical waters and provide habitat for many species. Coral reefs have a complex ecosystem with many types of interactions between species, including parasitism, commensalism, mutualism, predation, and competition for resources. Coral reefs are important because they provide shelter and food for many species, act as natural barriers against storms, help filter water, and control carbon dioxide levels.

Protected areas in India comprise of Sanctuaries,
National parks and Biosphere Reserves. The program of
Biosphere Reserve was initiated under “The man and
Biosphere (MAB) “program by UNESCO in 1971. Biosphere
Reserves are areas of terrestrial and coastal or marine
ecosystem, or a combination thereof, which are internationally
recognized for promoting and demonstrating a balanced
relationship between people and nature. This paper focuses
on environmental planning of Gulf of Mannar Biosphere
Reserve which extends from Rameswaram Island to Tuticorin
with 130 species of corals. The study provides guideline for
sustainable use of resources, activities to be permitted along
coastal stretch, coastal highways, and mangroves, reclamation
of saline and alkaline soil, coastal pollution, sedimentation,
avifauna, settlements, tourism and recommended vegetation.
It also provides guideline for the improvement of the relation
between people and their environment globally.

coral reef ecosystem (1554655)
Coral reefs are marine ecosystems home to thousands of species. They are found along coastal regions in the Gulf of Mannar, Gulf of Kutch, Palk Bay and islands of the Andaman and Nicobar and Lakshadweep seas in India. There are three major types of coral reefs - fringing reefs along the shoreline, barrier reefs separated from coasts by channels, and atolls surrounding a central lagoon. Coral reefs are threatened by factors like rising water temperatures, sedimentation, and pollution, so conservation efforts aim to restrict activities that damage corals like mining, anchoring, trawling, and waste dumping.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
