碩士 / 國立臺灣海洋大學 / 海洋事務與資源管理研究所 / 106 / Climate change is a global environmental issue causing concern for society internationally, and many studies indicate that the impacts of climate change on marine capture fisheries. Marine Environmental changes caused by climate change are critical operational risks, leading to production uncertainty for capture fisheries. Therefore, risk management measures of coastal and offshore fisheries under climate change are critical issues, which help capture fisheries to enhance operational sustainability. Because of the importance of fishing production in Keelung City, New Taipei City, and Yilan County, we selected these cities/counties as case studies to analyze fishermen’s attitudes related to risks and production uncertainty under climate change. In this study, we conducted a questionnaire survey to interview 273 fishermen who have experiences of capture fishing. To meet our objectives, descriptive statistics, factor analysis, and a structural equation model (SEM) were adopted to analyze fishermen’s perceptions and the relationships among risks sources, production uncertainty, and adaptation measures. According to the empirical result, most respondents agree with risk sources under climate change were affect fishery resource. But the SEM reveal that significant negative (t-value < -1.96) impacts were existed between risks sources and adaptation measures, which means risk sources cannot directly influence management measures selection. However, the production uncertainty could be an important mediator for the risk management, thus most respondents thought to control the production uncertainty is needed. Hopefully, the results could provide some suggestions for the fishery operators, policymakers and the government.
