- 摘要: Coral reefs, also referred to as "rainforests of the sea", are vital to the source of food and livelihood of millions of people. However, in 1997 and 1998 elevated sea surface temperature in many tropical regions triggered widespread bleaching and the heaviest mortality of corals. This research focused on three case study sites: Montego Bay, Jamaica, the south coast of Curacao, and the Maldives, with primary attention being paid to Montego Bay. Montego Bay Marine Park is a bold experiment initiated in 1992. The Park Trust, a non-governmental organization, was given authority to manage the park. The Trust and user groups took great interest in the research. Overall, the research calls for greater emphasis on: 1) socioeconomic concerns and clarification of property rights, involving the promotion of practical local management regimes that involve affected stakeholders in the resource base; 2) institutional strengthening to participate in potential bioprospecting benefits; and 3) ecosystem analysis, focusing on functional linkages and relationships and protection of critical ecosystems. The book concludes that better integration of integrated coastal zone management requires: a) building consensus on national coastal management priorities; b) supporting innovative local initiatives; c) developing quantifiable indicators of change in the coastal zone; and d) strengthening institutional capacity and partnerships in the form of international maritime agreements.

"The applied research indicates that, to improve awareness, park education programs should be targeted specifically to the user groups primarily through outreach programs. Further, the Park's management programs should be highlighted, particularly the beneficial, tangible products and services (benefits) the Park provides to each user group... The closer the tie between reef conditions and business earnings, the greater the users' support for reef conservation." Coral reefs are sometimes referred to as "canaries of the sea" because of their early warning ability to show near-shore oceanic stress. Because of their biological diversity, they are also called "rainforests of the sea." Coral reefs are vital to the well being of millions of people. Coral reef managers and government officials trying to save their valuable national resources have turned to research on coral reefs for help. The research presented in this publication merits a great deal of notice because the output is useful for decision support and training tools in integrated coastal zone management (ICZM). The work on cost-effectiveness analysis has developed integrated economic and ecological models, relying extensively on fuzzy logic procedures to model impacts and effects of interventions within the reef environment. By contrast, the marine system valuation work provides economic valuations of coral reefs, demonstrating the use of different modeling methods and treating key policy issues within this context. This publication will interest coastal zone experts and managers worldwide
