1 The YSLME and WWF partnership for marine biodiversity conservation 3 innovative management practices TOBAI, Sadayosi WWF Japan Manager, Yellow Sea Ecoregion Support Project
2 3 innovative management practices practice 1 ecosystem-based assessment of biodiversity and habitat practice 2 Ecosystem-based planning and implementation for demonstration of habitat management practice 3 Ecosystem-based partnership for planning and implementation of habitat management Ecosystem-based planning and implementation for demonstration of habitat management ecosystem-based assessment of biodiversity and habitat Ecosystem-based partnership
3 Introduction: problems and challenges to biodiversity and habitat Threats Large-scale loss of coastal wetland habitats Reclamation Aquaculture ponds Ports Agriculture/ salt ponds/ industrial complexes China: about 37% converted Korea: about 43% converted Challenges Lack of an ecosystem-based regional plan (in 2000)

5 practice 1 Practice: what was done ecosystem-based assessment of biodiversity and habitat Biological Assessment of the Yellow Sea Ecoregion Priority Area Analysis of the Yellow Sea Ecoregion Elements of Innovation 1 st multi-taxa mapping of critical habitats in the region Inclusion of critical habitats for most commercially important species Prioritisation of areas by their global significance

9 Ecosystem-based planning and implementation Elements of innovation Adoption of systematic framework for habitat management at ecosystem-scale (=Yellow Sea) Strategic selection of demonstration sites in China and RO Korea Which habitats? Management of representative habitats (2020) Which demo sites? demonstration of ecosystem-based effective management of habitats (2015)
10 Which habitats? Representative habitats Adoption of systematic framework for habitat management at ecosystemscale (=Yellow Sea) Ramsar classification of coastal and marine wetlands Most representative area of each habitat type Developed criteria for important areas for management of habitats Most important area for management of habitat Which habitats? Management of representative habitats (2020) Which demo sites? demonstration of ecosystem-based effective management of habitats (2015)
11 Ramsar Classification of Coastal Habitats A. Permanent shallow marine waters : major bays in the west coast B. Marine subtidal aquatic beds : sea-grass and algal beds in intertidal and subtidal area C. Coral reefs : corals in subtidal area (very rare in west coast of Korea) D. Rocky marine shores : bedrocks, stones or boulders in intertidal and subtidal area, and cliff in splash zone, Beaches are excluded in this category E. Sand, shingle or pebble shore : sand and pebble beaches, and sand dunes F. Estuarine waters : estuaries of major rivers. All the estuaries of major rivers are in this category regardless of dyke construction G. Intertidal mud, sand or salt flats : mud flats in the intertidal area H. Intertidal marshes : intertidal area with vegetations I. Intertidal forested wetlands : intertidal area with forest (very rare in the west coast) J. Coastal brackish/saline lagoons : no natural lagoons in the west coast. All the artificial freshwater and saltwater lakes separated from the sea by dam are in this category K --Coastal freshwater lagoons; includes freshwater delta lagoons. Zk(a)-- Karst and other subterranean hydrological systems, marine/coastal
12 Locations of 10 representative habitats in the west coast of Korea
13 Criteria Development for the representative habitat selection

15 Which demo sites? Objective: Select most suitable sites for demonstration of ecosystem-based effective management of habitats Feasibility scoring of ecosystem-based habitat management A new tool Final selection Ensured transparency of criteria and elements, and results Which habitats? Management of representative habitats (2020) Which demo sites? demonstration of ecosystem-based effective management of habitats (2015)
16 feasibility scoring of ecosystembased management Yalu River Estuary Representativ e habitat type: Estuary Intertidal flat Rongcheng Coastal Region Representativ e habitat type: Seagrass bed
17 Criteria and elements of feasibility scoring Selection Criteria Elements of scoring Criterion 1: Practicality of demonstrating improvement in management effectiveness Criterion 2: local government commitments Criterion 3: Stakeholder participation Criterion 4: Replicability a) Level of difficulty at site b) Why little or no management has been achieved until now b) Level of opportunity for improvement how our management plan can address the problems in 1) c) Level of support at site (financial, personnel and institutional) c) Opportunity for inclusion of cross component management actions (e.g. pollution) d) opportunities for sharing and learning lessons learnt with parallel YSLME demo sites e) ease of producing tangible outputs and outcomes within a project period (3 years for YSESP) a) Past examples of environmental management activities and achievements with in the province (2-3 examples). b) Current provincial efforts in biodiversity conservation and likely outcomes. c) Future environmental management plans at the proposed site. d) Financial support (source and size of matching funds) e) Personnel support (experiences and qualification of a planned project leader and a coordinator) f) Agreements (willingness?) by other relevant government divisions to develop a coordinating institutional mechanism for management of the demo site a) Willingness of current resource users (e.g. fishers) to participate in the management b) previous records of management by users c) previous records of cooperation with local government d) financial/ personnel support by stakeholders a) identified concrete replication sites b) perception of impact of replication by relevant government agencies
