Abstract Wastewater‐fed aquaculture is generally in decline. The 12 500 ha East Kolkata Wetlands (EKW) Ramsar site peri‐urban Kolkata, India, the only large‐scale formal system still operating and appears to demonstrate a high degree of resilience. This paper identifies aspects wastewater‐fed EKW that contribute its sustained operation. Driving Forces, Pressures, State, Impact, Response (DPSIR) framework was used structure assessment. Resilience within can be attributed scale operation,...

Floodplains are among the most diverse, dynamic, productive and populated but also threatened ecosystems on Earth. Threats mainly related to human activities that alter landscape disrupt fluvial processes obtain benefits multiple ecosystem services (ESS). Floodplain management therefore requires close coordination interest groups with competing claims poses multi-dimensional challenges policy-makers project managers.

Abstract Calls for participation in development projects are reviewed, meanings of discussed, and constraints to good considered. The stakeholder Delphi, drawing on knowledge experience participants, is assessed facilitating interactive consensus building. Stakeholder Delphi outcomes from a study concerning strategies limit negative aquaculture wastewater impacts presented. Round 1 participants (n = 24) identified 18 within institutional, managerial, socioeconomic, technological...
Bioeconomic modeling was used to evaluate traditional and extensive shrimp production in the Mahakam Delta impacts of adopting Better Management Practices (BMP) for semi-intensive integrated mangrove-shrimp culture. Modeling outcomes indicate that is not financially viable, failing generate a positive 10-year Internal Rate Return (IRR). Such practices persist as capital costs have been depreciated against past financial returns, input are negligible, risks minimal, opportunity low options...
