Abstract

The marine carbon sink fishery (MCSF) is an innovative and sustainable development model that integrates carbon sinks with fisheries. The Chinese government has actively promoted this concept by issuing a series of related policies. This study systematically reviewed China's MCSF policies using both quantitative and qualitative analyses to examine their evolution, characteristics, and effectiveness. Through a comprehensive analysis of 135 MCSF policies issued by various levels of government in China's coastal areas from 1985 to 2023, three developmental stages were identified: the initial exploration period (1985–2009), the rapid development period (2010–2015), and the optimization and adjustment period (2016–2023). The characteristics of policy evolution were mainly reflected in three aspects. First, the issuance power and functioning power of policies exhibited a growing trend. Second, the promulgators of policies were mainly local governments, with a trend towards diversification. Third, support for scientific research and skills development has gradually been strengthened. The results of a fixed-effects model showed that policy power had a significant positive impact on the development of MCSFs, with high-intensity policies promoting their healthy growth. In the future, newly formulated policies should prioritize establishing a multi-channel, multi-level funding system, advancing the integration of digital technology, enhancing the carbon trading mechanism, and establishing a comprehensive management platform for smart MCSFs.

中国海洋碳汇渔业政策的演变与成效

海洋碳汇渔业（MCSF）是一种将碳汇与渔业相结合的创新型可持续发展模式。中国政府积极推广这一理念，出台了一系列相关政策。本研究通过定量和定性分析，对中国的碳汇渔业政策进行了系统梳理，考察了这些政策的演变、特点和成效。通过对 1985 年至 2023 年中国沿海地区各级政府出台的 135 项流域综合管理政策的综合分析，确定了三个发展阶段：初步探索期（1985-2009 年）、快速发展期（2010-2015 年）和优化调整期（2016-2023 年）。政策演变的特点主要体现在三个方面。第一，政策的发布力和作用力呈现不断增强的趋势。第二，政策发布主体以地方政府为主，并呈现多元化趋势。第三，对科研和技能开发的支持力度逐步加强。固定效应模型的结果表明，政策力对中小微企业的发展具有显著的积极影响，高强度的政策促进了中小微企业的健康成长。未来，新制定的政策应优先考虑建立多渠道、多层次的资助体系，推进数字技术的融合，强化碳交易机制，建立智能多中心综合管理平台。

期刊介绍： Ocean & Coastal Management is the leading international journal dedicated to the study of all aspects of ocean and coastal management from the global to local levels. We publish rigorously peer-reviewed manuscripts from all disciplines, and inter-/trans-disciplinary and co-designed research, but all submissions must make clear the relevance to management and/or governance issues relevant to the sustainable development and conservation of oceans and coasts. Comparative studies (from sub-national to trans-national cases, and other management / policy arenas) are encouraged, as are studies that critically assess current management practices and governance approaches. Submissions involving robust analysis, development of theory, and improvement of management practice are especially welcome.
