Aquatic Resources Management Expertise Group FKP Unud
KBK Management of
Aquatic Resources (MSP)
A research and policy center focused on the management of
open-access aquatic ecosystems.
Emphasizing the balance between the utilization of biological
resources and environmental carrying capacity.
KBK Research Focus
Integrating biological parameters, aquatic physico-chemistry, and socio-economic dynamics to produce sustainable management recommendations in accordance with the EAFM mandate and the Blue Economy.
1. Bio-Ecology & Stock Assessment
Analysis of wild fish population dynamics, reproductive biology of endemic species, and determination of Total Allowable Catch (TAC).
2. Water Quality Management & Ecotoxicology
Monitoring aquatic health, pollutant bioconcentration (heavy metals/microplastics), and anthropogenic environmental carrying capacity.
3. Ecosystem Conservation & Rehabilitation
Protection of critical habitats (Mangroves, Seagrasses, Coral Reefs), invasive species control, and post-ecosystem restoration.
4. Policy & Aquatic Spatial Planning
Preparation of coastal zone spatial planning (RZWP-3-K), spatial utilization conflict resolution, and climate change adaptation strategies.
5. Freshwater Ecology
Studying the interaction of organisms with lake, river, and spring environments as well as their nutrient availability.
6. Coastal Ecology
Functional relationships of mangrove, seagrass, algae, and coral reef ecosystems as coastal protectors & biota habitats.
7. Coastal Aquaculture
Sustainable marine organism rearing practices to improve the economic welfare of local communities.
8. Coastal Ecotourism
Environmentally friendly tourism experiences prioritizing conservation of nature and local community empowerment.
