This work provides a broad perspective on issues related to living marine resources, their environment and management following the UN Conference on Environment and Development and the Cancun Conference. It begins with a sectoral discussion of sustainable development of living reources of nearshore and estuarine, semi-enclosed seas and Antarctic waters. Constraints on harvesting, impacts of marine pollution and potential for further development of resources are addressed. Each section concludes with a discussion of elements that can be included in a resource management programme.
