Remote sensing data for the years 2010, 2015, 2018, and 2020 was analyzed to assess the carbon storage capacity in the coastal zones of Lianyungang, and the causes of variation and the spatial evolution patterns were studied. The results showed that the carbon storage capacity of the coastal zones of Lianyungang showed a progressive decline with time. The carbon stock in 2020 was 6.245 × 10<sup>6</sup> TC (measured by CO<sub>2</sub>), which was more as compared to that of a decade ago. Based on estimation of the carbon stocks, several ecological restoration strategies were proposed for coastal zones of Lianyungang. The study area was divided as: ecological control space, ecological restoration space and ecological governance space. Ecological management requirements and suggestions were proposed for each type of space.

The Generalised Additive Models were used to investigate the effect of variations in oceanographic parameters of the Teluk Penyu fishing ground, south of central Java, on the magnitude of Mobulidae (<em>Mobula</em> spp.) catch based on its landings data over ten years (2009–2018) from one of Indonesia's largest ports, Cilacap, Central Java, Indonesia.

The findings indicate that anti-cyclonic eddies are more susceptible to the consequence of the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) and El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) than cyclonic eddies. Additionally, the joined impact of ENSO and IOD conceivably alters eddy activities across the BoB, as the second downwelling coastal Kelvin wave (dCKW) were absent. The mesoscale eddies exhibit correlations with climate indicators, suggesting that eddies get stronger during La Niña and negative IOD years and get weaker during El Niño and positive IOD years. This is because La Niña and negative IOD events intensify the second dCKW, while it weakens or becomes completely absent during El Niño and positive IOD years.
