Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Fishery and aquaculture are significant contributors to the sustenance and economic wellbeing of populations residing in coastal and aquatic regions worldwide. These industries impact the livelihoods of over one billion individuals and rely on renewable natural resources. However, if production practices are not sustainable, these industries have the potential to cause environmental degradation, which is a common occurrence.  One of the primary obstacles in this particular scenario pertains to the sustainability gap that exists between developed and developing nations. This gap can be attributed, in part, to the interdependence of technical and economic factors, as well as insufficient capacity for management and governance in various countries. The imperative nature of green growth and sustainable development in the fishery and aquaculture sectors is therefore evident.

The Special Issue provides an international forum for the areas of green growth and sustainable development in fishery and aquaculture. Both natural and social science research articles are welcome to promote the resource sustainability of fishery and aquaculture.

Tuna products are among the most popular seafoods in the world and widely traded across the globe. China is a major contributor to the worldwide tuna industry as both a producer and an exporter. Employing the Constant Market Share model, this study examines the factors influencing the variations in China’s tuna exports from 2002 to 2022, focusing on global, country, and product type levels. Results show that (1) China’s expanded tuna exporting trade is partially due to the rising worldwide demand for tuna, which is mostly prominent in China’s tuna exports to the USA, Vietnam, and Malaysia, as well as its exports of frozen tuna products. (2) China’s competitive edge in tuna exports has steadily strengthened in most of its principal exporting markets, especially in Japan and the fresh tuna markets. Nevertheless, the competitiveness structure of Chinese tuna exports has challenges in satisfying the diverse requirements of different nations (regions) for various types of tuna products. (3) The second-order effect has been the primary driver of the expansion in Chinese tuna exports, with its contribution rate consistently rising in recent years. In response to the changes in international and domestic tuna markets, China must implement strategies to maximize the potential of the tuna importing market, further improve its global competitiveness, enhance communication and coordination among domestic and international tuna stakeholders, and cultivate domestic tuna markets.

A multi-mesh trammel net has been developed and used for sampling freshwater fishes. However, little is known about the catch efficiency of the net. This research investigated the catch efficiency of a multi-mesh trammel net (nominal mesh size; 10.0, 30.0, 50.0, and 70.0 mm) for fish sampling in the Yangtze River of China. Catch composition and factors affecting catch per unit effort based on fish number (CPUEN), weight (CPUEW), and species number (CPUES) were analyzed. The results showed that the net was capable of capturing a wide range of fish sizes (total length, 5.5 to 121.0 cm) and species (n = 50). Increasing soak time from 9.4 to 24.0 h resulted in a decrease in CPUEN and CPUEW while a longer soak time increased CPUES. CPUEN, CPUEW, and CPUES varied significantly with fishing locations. The net provides a potential complement to the current fish sampling techniques used in freshwater ecosystems (e.g., large rivers, lakes, and reservoirs). The findings of this research help to improve our understanding of the catch efficiency of the multi-mesh trammel net and provides insight into better designs for gears and methods for sampling diverse fish sizes and species.

The predominant form of aquaculture is the facility fishery, which is also subject to significant impacts from marine disasters. Conducting research on the extraction of facility fishery areas based on remote sensing technology is crucial to efficiently comprehending the configuration of coastal culture patterns and to establishing scientifically sound plans for managing and administering these areas. The extensive dispersion of facility fishery areas in coastal regions poses a challenge to the conduction of comprehensive field surveys. The utilization of satellite remote sensing images for information extraction has emerged as a significant area of research in the fields of coastal fishery and ecological environment. This study provides a systematic description of the current research status of coastal fishery area extraction methods using remote sensing technology from 2000 to 2022 reported in the literature. The methods discussed include the visual interpretation method, image element-based classification, object-based classification, supervised classification, unsupervised classification, and neural network classification. The extraction accuracy of each method in the coastal facility fishery area is evaluated, and the advantages and disadvantages of these methods, as well as their limitations and existing problems, are analyzed in detail, to construct a reference framework for the investigation of the high-precision extraction of facility fishery areas from satellite remote sensing images.
