    [Author: Lauretta Burke, Elizabeth Selig, Mark Spalding] [Pages: 72] [ISBN: 1569734909] [Pub. Date: 2002]

    Product Description

    Southeast Asia possesses the most biologically diverse coral reefs on the planet. These biologically and economically vital resources are severely threatened by human activities. Reefs at Risk in Southeast Asia presents a detailed evaluation of threats to coral reefs from destructive fishing, overfishing, marine-based pollution, coastal development, and pollution and sedimentation from inland sources.

    [Author: Asian Development Bank] [Pages: 147] [ISBN: 9715614981] [Pub. Date: 2004]

    Product Description

    This study brings together the work of many researchers to arrive at suggestions for how to solve the environmental problems caused by the long-running live-fish trade in Southeast Asia. With strong demand coming from mainland China, this trade has caused rampant overfishing in Asia and consequent damage to outside subsistence or commercial fisheries. This work discusses ways to decrease nontarget fish mortality in an industry that often employs cyanide solution as a fishing tool as well as the role of regional organizations in regulating the trade.
