Indonesia the world’s largest fish producer in 2015: Minister

The government has increased measures to meet its target of catapulting the country to the top fish producer in the world in the coming six years.

Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Minister Fadel Muhammad said Wednesday, however, the achievement would require a change in the development program’s orientation from land to marine.

Fadel said Indonesia’s abundant fishery and maritime potential should be converted into huge foreign exchange reserves so the sector became the backbone of the country’s economy.

“We have projected that the country will emerge as the world’s biggest fish producer in 2015,” Fadel told a ceremony that marked the celebration of Nusantara (archipelago) Day in Makassar.

Fadel said the government expected the event to kick-start a new development strategy that relied on maritime resources.

“Fishermen and coastal-area residents have been part of the most impoverished and marginalized population despite maritime resource,” he said. “We want to change this.”

Also attending the ceremony was Coordinating Minister for People’s Welfare Agung Laksono and former fisheries minister Rokhmin Dahuri.

President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono was scheduled to lead the celebration, but canceled due to another appointment.

Ocean Day

As a result of a United Nations General Assembly resolution passed in December 2008, World Oceans Day is now officially recognized by the UN as June 8th each year. The concept for a “World Ocean Day” was first proposed in 1992 by the Government of Canada at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, and it had been unofficially celebrated every year since then. Since 2002, The Ocean Project and the World Ocean Network have helped to promote and coordinate World Oceans Day events worldwide. We help coordinate events and activities with aquariums, zoos, museums, conservation organizations, universities, schools, and businesses. Each year an increasing number of countries and organizations have been marking June 8th as an opportunity to celebrate our world ocean and our personal connection to the sea. Together, we also developed and widely circulated a petition to the United Nations urging them to officially recognize World Oceans Day. With help from our Partner organizations, tens of thousands

Data Argo Float

Berikut adalah artikel yang saya dapatkan dari http://www.mosaiklautkita.com/ARGO.html yang merupakan tulisan dari Dr.Lamona Barnawis. Cukup bagus untuk tahapan-tahapan dalam mengenal dan mengolah data oseanografi. selamat membaca ============================================== Argo Untuk Menginformasikan Keadaan Lautan dan Iklim Lamona Irmudyawati Bernawis Pelajar S3, Laboratory of Physics and Environmental Modelling Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology Sejarah singkat Bermula sebagai bagian dari World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) 1990-1997, Russ Davis dari Scripps University of Oceanography dan Doug Webb dari Webb Research Corporation membangun Autonomous Lagrangian Circulation Explorer (ALACE) untuk mengambil data arus laut di kedalaman 1000m pada seluruh lautan. ALACE ini dipasang pada pengapung (float), yang diatur akan naik ke permukaan laut dalam selang yang teratur agar posisinya dapat diperbaiki melalui satelit. Kemudian disadari bahwa dalam proses naik ke p

Model Oseanografi

Salah satu pekerjaan oseanografer adalah menjadi modeler , tapi bukan untuk merancang pakaian musim panas dingin, atau berjalan-jalan ganjen dan culun di atas titian kucing ( cat walk ) , tetapi mencoba mentransfer fenomena oseanografi ke dalam persamaan-persamaan diskrit/numerik. Banyak hal bisa dimodelkan, dari yang paling sederhana hingga yang rumit amit-amit. Model seperti ini biasa disebut sebagai model numerik. Salah satu kegunaan dari model numerik dalam bidang oseanografi adalah untuk mempelajari perilaku laut secara lebih mudah dan murah tetapi detail. Mudah dan murah karena kita tidak perlu pergi ke laut, tahu sendiri kan, survey oseanografi itu cukup mahal dan sulit. Detail, karena kita bisa menjadikan lokasi penelitian kita di laut menjadi sel-sel hingga skala yang cukup rapat. Dalam perkembangan ilmu oseanografi, model numerik ini cukup banyak membantu para oseanografer dalam menjelaskan fenomena-fenomena yang teramati di alam dengan lebih men
