Abstract

Abstract: The marine resources are regarded as the major components of global marine ecosystem within the sphere the earth surface. While the sustainability of regional marine resources is essential for worldwide human-nature co-existence and coordinated development in the long run. Highlighted by principles of modern regional economics, the paper manages to conduct systematic assessment of 12 worldwide cases in 4 categories of coastal zones, islands, offshore waters, as well as high seas & international seabed. Five aspects of indicators are determined in terms of innovation, coordination, adaptation, openness, and sharing during the research. Among the findings of the initial approaches, the coastal zone, high seas & international seabed cases show higher indicator performances than those of near seas and islands, and conservation oriented cases are better in scoring results than those of resource exploitation cases.
