Abstract/Description: | Vulnerability of inland fisheries has been universally and unanimously recognized by fisheries experts all over the world. Before some 20-30 years, experts in the field were probably not bothered about sustainability and vulnerability. The sector at present is facing various man-induced and natural problems which are being assessed either qualitatively or quantitatively employing theoretical and/ or experimental methods. Majority of the man-induced problems are due to increase in the fishers’ population, increased dependency on natural fisheries, increasing fishing efforts, capture of juveniles and brooders from the waterbody etc. Majority of the natural problems are due to abnormal floods, siltation leading to reduced water depths, closure of connecting channels of rivers to the wetlands, abnormal drought-like (dry) situations affecting natural fisheries, etc. The present situation in most of the inland water resources can be termed as highly vulnerable both in the resources and fishers points of view. Research efforts are now directed towards developing/ documenting adaptation strategies so that inland fisheries and fishers dependent on such fisheries can cope with ever-increasing climatic vagaries that are facing the entire system. In this chapter, an account of practical, proven and suggestive technologies or practices is presented as adaptation options in inland fisheries vis-à-vis climate change. |
