What does the marine economy include?

Marine economy includes many aspects, including marine fishery, marine transportation, marine oil and gas industry, coastal tourism, marine shipbuilding industry, sea salt industry and so on. The explanation is as follows:

1. Marine fishery is an important part of marine economy. Marine fisheries are mainly divided into pelagic fisheries and offshore fisheries. Offshore fishing refers to fishing activities in coastal countries and regions, such as fishing and aquaculture. Deep-sea fishing refers to fishing activities in the high seas and exclusive economic zones far from the coast, such as deep-sea fishing and offshore fishing.

2. Maritime transportation is also an important aspect of marine economy. Ocean transportation refers to the use of the sea to transport goods and people. Ocean transportation has the advantages of large volume and low freight rate, and is an important way of international trade and logistics transportation. Offshore oil and gas industry is also one of the important industries of marine economy.

3. Offshore oil and gas industry refers to the industry that conducts oil and gas exploration, exploitation and production on the seabed. With the increasing global energy demand, the development prospect of offshore oil and gas industry is getting broader and broader. Coastal tourism is also an important part of marine economy.

4. Coastal tourism refers to the coastal holiday, yacht, underwater sightseeing and other tourism activities carried out in the coastal zone. The development of coastal tourism can not only promote regional economic development, but also improve the quality of life of local residents.

The ocean contains a large number of biological resources, including countless fish, shellfish, coral reefs and so on. Provide abundant food and other resources for human beings.

2. The ocean contains a variety of mineral resources such as oil and natural gas, which is of great significance to human economic and social development. The ocean also has important transportation and commercial value. It provides 90% routes for global trade and transportation and is the lifeline of the global economy.

3. The ocean also has an important influence on climate and environment. The ocean can absorb a lot of carbon dioxide, which plays an important role in slowing down global warming. The ocean can also regulate the global climate. For example, the "Ma Wei" phenomenon in the Pacific Ocean is a typical marine climate phenomenon. With the development and utilization of the ocean, the marine environment is facing great threats and challenges.
