CTI Sulu-Celebes Sea SFMP Project Document.Pdf UNDP Project Document Governments of Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines United Nations Development Programme Implementation of the Sulu-Celebes Sea Sustainable Fisheries Management Project Brief Description The Sulu-Celebes Sea (SCS) is a Large Marine Ecosystem in the tropical seas of Asia bounded by three countries – Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. Being at the heart of the most bio-diverse marine area in the world, the SCS is also a very rich fishing ground for large and small pelagic as well as bay and coral reef fishes, providing livelihoods to the coastal inhabitants and food for the entire region and beyond. The fishery resources, however, have declined due to various threats, including overexploitation, habitat and community modification and global climate change. The goal of the Project is to have an economically and ecologically sustainable marine fisheries in the SCS, for the benefit of communities who are dependent on these resources for livelihood and for the global community who benefit in the conservation of highly diverse marine ecosystems and its ecosystems services The objective of the Project is to improve the condition of fisheries and their habitats in the SCS through an integrated, collaborative and participatory management at the local, national and tri-national levels. The three countries and other stakeholders, including NGOs, have worked together to develop the Sulu-Sulawesi Marine Ecoregion Conservation Plan and formally put in place a regional institutional mechanism to implement the plan. The Project activities, outcomes and outputs will build on these strong regional and national initiatives. There are five major outcomes of the Project. The first is the achievement of a regional consensus on trans-boundary priorities and their immediate and root causes by updating an earlier Trans-boundary Diagnostic Analysis for the SCS and focusing on unsustainable exploitation of fisheries. The second outcome is agreement on regional measures for improved fisheries management through coordination in the formulation of a Strategic Action Program, which will build on the existing Ecoregion Conservation Plan. The third outcome is the strengthening of institutions and introduction of reforms to catalyze implementation of policies on reducing overfishing and improving fisheries management. The primary target for institutional strengthening is the Sulu-Sulawesi Marine Ecoregion Tri-National Committee and its Sub-Committees, in particular the Sub-Committee on Sustainable Fisheries. The fourth outcome is increased fish stocks of small pelagics through the implementation of best fisheries management practices in demonstration sites. The fifth outcome is the capture, application and dissemination of knowledge, lessons and best practices within the SCS and other LMEs. 1 Table of Contents SECTION I: ELABORATION OF THE NARRATIVE

Sulu-Celebes Sea Large Marine Ecosystem 1. The Sulu-Celebes Sea1 (SCS) is a Large Marine Ecosystem2 (LME) in the tropical seas of Asia, containing a geographically distinct assemblage of natural communities that share a large number of common species, dynamics, and conditions3. The SCS is a semi-enclosed LME with an area of 900,000 km2, and is composed of two marine basins – the Sulu Sea and the Celebes- Sulawesi Sea. The two marine basins are separated by the Tawi-Tawi Ridge but are inter- connected by the movement of marine waters4. The Pacific Ocean flows into Sulu Sea in northern Mindanao and between Sangihe-Talaud Archipelago, North Sulawesi. Surface waters from one basin overflow to the other every two weeks and through-flows through the Tawi- Tawi-Sulu Archipelago occur during monsoons. An internal wave moves back and forth from the Tubbataha Ridge towards the east coast of Palawan Island. 2. The dynamic movement of marine waters in the Sulu-Celebes Sea circulates rich nutrients and larval stages of many marine species across political boundaries. The upwelling along the northwestern edge of the Tawi-Tawi Ridge enriches surface waters that are exchanged between Sulu and Sulawesi Seas and are circulated around by monsoonal winds. The circulation of waters explain the export of larvae from a spawning ground to distant settlement habitats, e.g., from Tubbataha Reef to Palawan Island and Sabah, north Borneo, from Surigao to Bohol Sea. 3. The direction of transport of nutrients and larval stages varies with the monsoons5. During the northeast monsoon, the waters from the Pacific Ocean enter Sulu Sea north of Mindanao and divide into two – one moving northward towards Mindoro Island and exiting to the South China Sea, and the other moving southward and clock-wise to Tawi-Tawi, east coast of Sabah, and exiting through Balabac Strait to the South China Sea. In Sulawesi Sea, the marine waters enter Makassar

  • Mantle Structure and Tectonic History of SE Asia
    Nature and Demise of the Proto-South China Sea ROBERT HALL, H. TIM BREITFELD SE Asia Research Group, Department of Earth Sciences, Royal Holloway University of London, Egham, Surrey, TW20 0EX, United Kingdom Abstract: The term Proto-South China Sea has been used in a number of different ways. It was originally introduced to describe oceanic crust that formerly occupied the region north of Borneo where the modern South China Sea is situated. This oceanic crust was inferred to have been Mesozoic, and to have been eliminated by subduction beneath Borneo. Subduction was interpreted to have begun in Early Cenozoic and terminated in the Miocene. Subsequently the term was also used for inferred oceanic crust, now disappeared, of quite different age, notably that interpreted to have been subducted during the Late Cretaceous below Sarawak. More recently, some authors have considered that southeast-directed subduction continued until much later in the Neogene than originally proposed, based on the supposition that the NW Borneo Trough and Palawan Trough are, or were recently, sites of subduction. Others have challenged the existence of the Proto-South China Sea completely, or suggested it was much smaller than envisaged when the term was introduced. We review the different usage of the term and the evidence for subduction, particularly under Sabah. We suggest that the term Proto-South China Sea should be used only for the slab subducted beneath Sabah and Cagayan between the Eocene and Early Miocene. Oceanic crust subducted during earlier episodes of subduction in other areas should be named differently and we use the term Paleo- Pacific Ocean for lithosphere subducted under Borneo in the Cretaceous.

  • A Gravity High in Darvel Bay
    Ceol. Soc. MaLaYJia, BulLetill 59, July 1996,. pp. 1lJ-122 A gravity high in Darvel Bay PATRICK J.e. RYALL! AND DWAYNE BEATTIE2 1 Department of Geology Dalhousie University Halifax, Nova Scotia Canada B3H 3J5 2Geoterrex Ltd. 2060 Walkley Road Ottawa, Ontario Canada K1 G 3P5 Abstract: A gravity survey was carried out along the coastlines of Darvel Bay and many of the islands (e.g. Sakar, Tabauwan, Silumpat) in the Bay. In addition stations were located along the road from Kunak to Lahad Datu. The resulting Bouguer anomaly map shows a broad gravity high of at least 60 mgal which strikes west northwest with its maximum on the southern coast of Pulau Sakar. The anomaly narrows and decreases where it comes ashore and may continue along the Silam-Beeston Complex. This large positive anomaly suggests that there is an extensive ultramafic body beneath Darvel Bay. The gravity anomaly can best be modelled as a 3 to 5 km thick slab of ultramafic rock under the Bay with amphibolites on its northern and southern edges dipping away from the Bay. This model is consistent with a folded structure which brings upper mantle rocks to the surface. It is unlikely that there is a significant thickness of Chert-Spilite Formation beneath Darvel Bay, although the gravity data w.ould permit a thickness of up to a few hundred metres. INTRODUCTION Hutchison (1968,1975) considers the ophiolitic rocks of Darvel Bay as part of a strongly arcuate Borneo line which runs from the Sulu Archipelago in the northeast, through Darvel Bay and northwestern The island of Borneo is located in a complex Sabah and along Palawan (Fig.

  • Geological Heritage Features of Tawau Volcanic Sequence, Sabah
    Bulletin of the Geological Society of Malaysia 56 (2010) 79 – 85 Geological heritage features of Tawau volcanic sequence, Sabah Sanudin Tahir, BaBa MuSTa & iSMail aBd rahiM Geology Programme, School of Science and Technology Universiti Malaysia Sabah, 88999 Kota Kinabalu, Sabah Abstract­­— Semporna Peninsula area was built up by thick Tertiary sequence of volcanic flows and volcaniclastic rocks. Early Cretaceous tholeiite basalt is the oldest sequence of volcanic rocks interpreted to have formed as part of a wide spread submarine volcano or volcanic complex within an MORB characterized by rapid volcanism. Miocene to Quaternary volcanisms from volcanic arcs contributed sequences of lava flows and pyroclastic rocks of dacitic, andesitic and basaltic rock types forming the major mountain chains of southeast Sabah. This Neogene volcanic sequence is dominated by low to high K-calc alkaline andesitic to dacitic volcanic rocks similar to modern island arc type. The subaerial of the latest lava flows of the region indicates volcanism consistent with tholeiitic basalt type. It has been accepted that during the Cenozoic, Sabah has been subjected to series of major tectonic regimes. A number of deformation phases have been determined include: Middle Eocene, Middle Miocene and Plio-Pleistocene phases of crustal movements of this region. The area appeared, therefore, to have been subjected to compressional tectonic regime throughout much of the late Cenozoic. However, the structural and sedimentological expression of these tectonic regimes varies considerably. It is suggested here that compressional episodes were interspersed with periods of active transtensional basin formation and that Late Miocene extension of the eastern part of Sabah which was related to compressional forces.

    Jurnal Kinabalu Bil. 26(2), 183-196, Disember 2020 E-ISSN 2600-867X© Wan Shawaluddin Wan Hassan & Diana Peters THE VULNERABILITY OF BAJAU LAUT AS STATELESS PEOPLE IN SABAH WAN SHAWALUDDIN WAN HASSAN1 DIANA PETERS2 1&2Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, 88400 Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. [email protected] Date Received: 16 July 2020 / Date Accepted: 10 October 2020 ABSTRACT The Bajau Laut or Sea Bajau or also often referred to with the derogatory label Palauh by other communities, are known to be living within their ancestral domain of the Sulu and the Celebes Seas or the Sulu- Semporna-South Sulawesi Triangle. During the pre-British period, their mobility around this region was well established as part of their civilization and was not an issue with other peoples in the land-based territories. However, the legal status of the Bajau Laut became problematic when citizenship and territories were formalized by the emergence of the nation- states of the Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia. In the case of the Bajau Laut population located on the Malaysian side of Sabah, the dynamics of their own internal development has become more complicated. In Sabah, there are three groups of Bajau: The West Coast Bajau, the various groups of East Coast Bajau and the Bajau Laut who can be found along Sabah’s east coast, and around the islands off of Semporna. These three groups can be differentiated by their language and dialects, as well as livelihood, status in life, education, community structure and their general worldviews. The West Coast Bajau and the East Coast Bajau have slowly integrated themselves into the Malaysian society, while the Bajau Laut continues their semi- nomadic life at sea and are generally regarded as stateless by the Malaysian Government.
