This study aims to explore the relationship between the diversity of coral fish resources and ecosystem services as added value in the development of sustainable Special Economic Zones (SEZs). The existence of SEZs has become an economic focal point, making the balance of the natural environment increasingly crucial to support long-term economic growth. Data collection for this research was conducted through field surveys to assess the diversity of coral fish resources, including species, abundance, and distribution in Tanjung Lesung. The data was further analyzed to determine the added value of ecosystem services to SEZ development, which includes provisioning services and cultural services. The results of the study revealed a significant relationship between the diversity of coral fish resources and ecosystem services in the area. High levels of species and resources diversity positively contribute to food availability for communities, as well as enhancing cultural services, such as tourism. Additionally, coral fish naturally plays a vital role in maintaining ecosystem balance and ensuring the survival of other species in the food chain. The findings of this research provide a deeper understanding of the importance of sustainability and governance of coral fish resources in supporting the development of SEZs. This study also serves as a foundation for policy planning that focuses on responsible and sustainable utilization of coral fish resources to achieve balanced long-term economic development in harmony with aspect of environmental conservation.

Indonesia’s developmental endeavors, with a focal point on Java Island, presented an overarching concern for the excessive depletion of its coastal and maritime reservoirs. This fundamental notion laid the groundwork for Indonesian governmental actions in 2015 under the stewardship of Minister of Marine Affairs and Fisheries Susi Pujiastuti . During this period, a proactive measure was introduced, entailing the imposition of fishing limitations within the Northern Java Sea vicinity. Embodied within the Ministerial Regulation of Marine Affairs and Fisheries No. 2 of 2015, the restriction of Deploying Trawl and Seine Nets within Indonesian Fishery Management Zones became a tangible manifestation aimed at upholding the preservation of coastal and maritime resources. After an approximate span of eight years since the enforcement of this policy, noteworthy transformations have transpired within the northern Java capture fisheries sector. Comprehensive interviews, meticulous observations, and scrutiny of documents within the Pati Regency (particularly in the Juwana sub-district) within the Central Java province revealed discernible shifts within coastal communities in a relatively brief span. Employing the social-ecological system framework, an analytical lens was cast upon the repercussions of this governmental restriction policy on the circumstances of the Juwana sub-district’s coastal communities, notably the fishermen. The curtailment imposed on fishing apparatus compelled fishermen to modernize and enhance the efficiency of their equipment. The evolving working ethos of the community trended toward collective endeavors and opportunistic pursuit of commercial prospects. Nevertheless, simultaneous challenges surfaced, including societal disparities amidst coastal communities, the marginal involvement of local governance, and the plausible peril of ecosystem detriment beyond the initial boundaries.

This research aims to study the dynamics of social-ecological interactions in the Teluk Lasolo PAAP (Fisheries Access Management Area) in North Konawe Regency, Southeast Sulawesi Province. The study adopts a comprehensive approach to sustainable development, utilizing Social-Ecological Network Analysis (SENA). The Teluk Lasolo PAAP area is a complex environment with small-scale fisheries as a crucial component of the coastal ecosystem. Using the SENA method, this research analyzes the interactions between social and ecological dimensions in the context of fisheries management based on access rights. The study also considers economic aspects, governance, and resource utilization within the social-ecological network. The case study is conducted in the Teluk Lasolo area to understand the complex dynamics among various stakeholders, fishing communities, and the coastal ecosystem. The findings of this research will provide profound insights and knowledge about the factors influencing the sustainability of small-scale fisheries and offer recommendations for sustainable updates in fisheries resource management in the region. In conclusion, this research highlights the importance of a comprehensive approach involving social-ecological interactions in managing small-scale fisheries. The results of this study are expected to make a positive contribution to the development of sustainable fisheries management strategies in the Teluk Lasolo PAAP area and other coastal regions.

Blue swimming crab (BSC) fisheries are characterized as small-scale, with limited biological and socio-economic data. Information limitations, such as those related to administrative inputs, have become a pressing issue in understanding the sustainability of BSC fisheries in coastal Pati Regency. This study aimed to analyze fishery uncertainty. The research was conducted from December 2020 to March 2021 in Alasdowo Village, Dukuhseti District, Pati Regency. Biological data was collected from the daily logbooks of BSC middlemen, encompassing the catch of 368 fishermen from January 2019 to March 2021. Socio-economic data was obtained through structured interviews and focus group discussions. The production value of BSC in zone 2 was approximately 724.6 ± 889.7 kg/day, with a coefficient of variability of 1.23. The number of fishing trips was 188 ± 137, with a coefficient of variability of 0.73. The productivity value was approximately 3.2 ± 3.7 kg/trip, with a coefficient of variability of 1.16. The BSC fishery using trap-net gear in zone 2 exhibits high uncertainty, as evidenced by the high coefficients of variability. Exploring fishery uncertainty can be a valuable component of fisheries management through a social-ecological systems approach.

Lobster is a high-value fisheries commodity in Gunungkidul Regency. Lobster resource management in the waters of Gunungkidul Regency has not been well identified in the social-ecological system (SES) framework. This study aims to describe and analyze the dynamics of interrelationships between the social-ecological system components of lobster fisheries in Gunungkidul Regency, which consists of the subsystem of resource systems (RS), resource units (RU), resource actors (RA), and resource governance (RG) and their interrelationships within and between subsystems to formulate a sustainable lobster management strategies in the waters of Gunungkidul Regency. This research was conducted from November 2022 until January 2023. The results of this study have indicated a dynamic interaction between the SES components of lobster fisheries. RS and RA are the SES components with the highest influence, so the slightest changes in RS and RA can cause co-evolutive changes to all the SES components of lobster fisheries in the waters of Gunungkidul Regency.

Access limitation to capture lobster puerulus needs to be done to sustain the utilization of the resources, increase fishermen’s income and preserve the abundance of puerulus in the Western Coastal Waters of Lampung Province. The management of puerulus resources in these waters does not seem to have been well integrated within the framework of the social-ecological system (SES) of fishery resources. This study aims to analyze SES components and connectivity of lobster puerulus and identify strategic factors to be used in the context of fisheries management of lobster ( Panulirus spp.). The research was conducted between October until November 2021 in West Coast Regency, Lampung Province, using SES approach. From the results, we have been revealed that there is a strong interaction and influence between the resources actor component (RA) and the resources unit (RU) in the context of the dynamics of the resources system (RS), but tends to be weak in the framework of the governance of the resource (RG). The management strategy is carried out through good collaboration between the government and resources actor to maintain puerulus abundance.
