Abstract

Abstract The Integrated Center of Marine and Fisheries (SKPT) is one of the Indonesian government’s steps in developing better management of the fisheries sector. SKPT Mimika has “The golden fishing ground” waters with a capture fisheries potential of 2.64 million tons per year; Arafura waters are one of the most fertile waters in Indonesia. With this potential and the concept of water development, namely the blue economy, where the economy with the axis of the sea must be sustainable, has a high urgency to ensure that there is no excessive exploitation of marine resources. The development of a sustainable blue economy involves many parties, but we consider that the closest community is the answer to the success of this development. Creating the potential fishing zone (PFZ) from Aqua MODIS image data and SWOT Analysis to formulate sustainable recommendations can help the community and stakeholders. Some of the outcomes of our recommendations are 1) Empower and implement an adaptive management approach that considers the needs and situations of each member of society, community, and region; 2) Increase the resilience of fisheries and aquaculture systems through implementing sustainable practices, diversifying fisheries commodities, and increasing access to markets. 3) Increase the ability of fisheries and aquaculture stakeholders to adapt to the impacts of climate change through training, education and awareness-raising activities; 4) Integrate the fisheries and aquaculture sectors into national policies and strategies for climate change; and 5) Management of intentional fishing and dumping.
