1. WP6: Coastal Transects Deliverables and Work Plan Start-up Workshop, Kiel Germany 4-7 October 2005

2. D6.1: Concepts and tools for ICZM & fisheries management (May 2006) Group leader: Robert Kay Update CZAP coastal projects database (for Asia- Pacific region); Add fields to include ‘quantitative’ data about stakeholders involvement, e.g., (Thailand, Namibia) Degree of stakeholders participation in planning and implementation phases; Level of community organization; Level of social capital (degree of collaboration for mutual benefits). Add fields to include fisheries management tools (Thailand, Namibia) Work plan: Kay will come to CDC-Thailand in November 2005 for a short meeting.

3. D6.2: Categorization of coastal areas using coastal transect analysis (August 2006) Group leaders: Chuenpagdee/Juntarashote Pauly and Clivefoot (1992)

4. D6.2 Further details Develop ‘typology’ to describe coastal systems to include the following dimensions Physical coastal geography (e.g., floodplain, continental shelf, lake, barrier islands, etc.); Coastal habitats (e.g., mangroves, seagrass, coral reefs, mudflats, etc.); Economic activities (e.g., fishing, coastal aquaculture, cage culture, ecotourism, mining, port, etc.); Stakeholders, by gear type, fisheries and scale; Institutional arrangement & governance systems, including management types and tools.

5. D6.2 Points to consider and work plan Narrowing the focus to capture ‘key’ coastal typology, e.g., in major LME; Think about adding ‘functionality’ of coastal systems for the analysis of changes in productivity; Need to meet and work closely with WP1 to develop the framework; Need to work closely with WP8; 1 st combined workshop between WP 6 & 8 (tentatively in October 2006, in Thailand).

6. D6.3: Decision-making framework based on coastal transect analysis (May 2007) Group leaders: Chuenpagdee/Pierce Develop spatial decision support system using tools such as Geographic Information System (GIS), multi- criteria analysis, expert knowledge and damage schedule approach; Locations: Thailand, Namibia and Scotland; Work plan: Organise two meetings (in Thailand and Aberdeen) from now to early 2007); Need to hire one more post-doc (linked to CDC) on modeling to support the existing GIS post-doc in Aberdeen (ASAP); Work closely with WP 8; 2 nd combined workshop between WP 6 & 8 (tentatively in April 2007 in Namibia)

7. D6.4: Testing of framework (February 2008) Group leader: Chuenpagdee Namibia/Angola (Benguela Current LME) Scotland Others? Work plan: Need to discuss with other WPs.
