No-Take Reserves have significant value for research in that they provide a control against which the changes outside can be compared.  Long-established marine reserves provide a baseline healthy ecosystem that cannot be fully duplicated with other methods such as mathematical modeling.  Areas closed due to fisheries declines produce can very important data for establishing the effectiveness of Marine Reserves in facilitating recovery of fisheries and ecosystems (Hermens, Collie, & Valentine 2003).

Economics:

Wiki MarkupDespite common assertions to the contrary, Marine Reserves can have significant economic benefits to society, in particular, the assurance of long-term, sustainable fisheries. On  On of the unfortunate short-term effects of marine reserves is the displacement of fishermen due to the reduction of fishable waters, the higher levels of congestion, and potential competition.    However, in the long run, the establishment of a network of protected areas will inevitably create "optimal harvesting area\[s\]" with "higher resource rents" (Grafton, Komas, & Pham 2006) under controlled fishing rates. Our  Our particular proposal is designed to mitigate the short term costs, while attempting to ensure that enough of the ocean is protected so that the future potential can be realized.

But perhaps even more exciting are the beneficial economic effects of Marine Reserves to tourism and other non-exploitative activities.  According to the NationalMarineProtectedAreasCenter(1995-1996), the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary and other marine-related parks and refuges provide an "estimated total tourist contribution to the economy of over 60 percent."  Considering the scale of tourism in areas such as the Florida Keys, this is a truly significant percentage.  Myriad activities such as scuba diving, wildlife watching, boating, surfing, and snorkeling are part of this large and growing industry.

108 marine nature reserves at different levels have been established, with a total area of 7.69 million hectares. \ [2\] Among these reserves, 30 are at provincial level, more than 60 at national level and others at county level.   All endangered marine species are covered. \[3\]   All endangered marine species are covered.

Chinahas established legal management system for marine resource protection.  It's general principle is "conservation first, appropriate exploitation and sustaintable development".    "Procedures for the administration of marine reserves" is the policy for marine reserve. [4]
 
Problems:
1.) The efficiency of the management system constrains protection.
     The system is devided into national level, provincial level and municipal level, and above each level, there are many departments in charge of the management.  Various departments have their own management structure and funding sources.  Each department is only actively developing part of the department's protected areas, which leads to competition between departments, redundant construction, fragmentation and overall inefficiency.  Whether at the national level or in the provincial and municipal levels, it is difficult to achieve the unity of the construction of protected areas planning.

The contradictions between Protection and Development

As a developing country with large fish demand, the contradiction is notable.  Unlike inland nature reserves, marine reserves are divided into different areas for protection and exploitation.  Though the main goal is protection, it is confliction to exploitation somewhat.
