1 PICES 17 th annual meetng, Dalan, Chna 29.Oct.2008 Ecosystem-based fsheres resources assessment and management system n Jeonnam marne ranchng n Korea Hee Won Park and Chang-Ik Zhang Pukyong Natonal Unversty

2 Current fsheres management n Korea waters TAC-based management for 10 speces Resource rebuldng actvtes by artfcal reefs Releasng fres and juvenles, seaweed beds Buy-back program to reduce fshng vessels MPAs Marne ranchng program Self-regulatory fsheres management

3 Ecosystem based fsheres approach n Korea Ecosystem modelng - Apply to marne ranchng ecosystems (Lee, 2007) - Apply to Korean waters (East/Japan sea, Yellow sea) Ecosystem-based ntegrated fsheres assessment approach Ecologcal Rsk Assessment - Analyss for Large purse sene fshery (Park, 2007; Kwon,2007) Ecosystem-based fsheres assessment and management - Marne ranchng -Stock rebuldng -TAC fsheres
