Liputan6.com, jakarta – The climate change that occurs today affects many things, one of which is the state of the sea, and the weather is becoming more unstable. This situation is a problem for the basis of the coastal economy: traditional fishermen.
They, traditional fishermen, are very dependent on marine conditions and stable weather. Nevertheless, climate change prevented this balance, which affects their common catch, income and well -being.
One of the main consequences of climate change is a decrease in fish catches. Data of the Ministry of Marines and Fisheries of Indonesia (KKP) show that since 2010, fish catch has declined to 20-30% in several coastal areas. This is caused by the migration of fish in deeper or more cool waters from the increase in the temperature of the sea, as well as changes in current and weather conditions that affect the distribution of fish.
Japan, as an archipelagic country with abundant marine resources and for a long time was a pioneer in water management, marine technologies and the fish industry.
“In fact, last year, in 2024, the temperature of the sea surface in Japan was the highest temperature over the past 100 years. Climate conversation Liputan6.com Some time ago.
Wakabayashi Hajime also mentioned that typhoons and storms, which are found even more when approaching the coastal zone in Japan, especially in the summer. “So the fishing zone also leaves, going beyond Japan.”
“For each fisherman, it is also important to collect the volume of fish, because in which sea zone there are many resources or climate, it receives data using data,” Vakabai said.
According to Vakabayashi, in Japan there are institutions to control their fishing area. Thus, the volume of fish in terms of migration can be controlled.
“Each port has means for monitoring fishing resources. And it should be more accurate and more detailed in the future. This is combined with satellite data that we can find, ”Vakabai said.
In addition, he also said that Japan can create new politicians associated with climate change. AI also played a role in this matter.
“And we, the official organs in Japan, can create a new policy at the same time as those that are adapted to climate change. As for the use of artificial intelligence, AI (artificial intelligence) to make the official policy of the body in Japan should be combined with the GIS system (Geographical information system), – he explained again.
Vakabayashi said that the system was received from ships at sea. “It was installed on every fishing ship, because there were many types of fishing vessels. Thus, AI could find ships caught by squids, ships that caught tuna so that they could find ways to move and what they caught, analyzing the data of artificial intelligence. ”
“AI and data from each fishing vessel are very useful to find out the influence of the actual climate change,” he said.
