| dc.description.abstract | Mapping artisanal fisheries activities for Bagamoyo and Kinondoni Districts based on spatial patterns of landing sites was carried out in a Geographic Information System (GIS) environment. Spatial attributes of the fish landing sites from fisheries frame survey database and field collected data was analyzed. The spat ial distribution of the fish landing sites was weighted using average nearest neighbour tool (ANNT. The ANNT revealed that fish landing sites were not scattered but statistically spatially dispersed (P<0.01) in the study area, and the hierarchy for the relative importance of the landing sites in the area was established. Msasani, Kunduchi and Custom were the most prominent ones. Moran I tool (MIT) showed a significantly high number of fishing vessels for fish landing sites at Kinondoni district (P<0.01). Analysis of the value of fish landing sites based on the price of filling vessels showed that Kunduchi had the highest investment value (532.65 Tsh Million), and was dominated by expensive fishing vessels (Boats), which constituted more than 52% of its total fishing vessel. Kunduchi was followed by Mlingotini (256.9 Tsh Million), and Msasani (152.05 Tsli Million), Nchipana(128.8 Tsh Million) and Custom (121.2 Tsh Million). It is important to highlight that price value of fishing vessels come from in situ data, while the number of fishing vessels come from fisheries frame survey database. Although, the number of fisheries records used for only ten fish landing sites, the study attempts to provide new insight on the spatial distribution, characteristic and investment value of landing sites, however, further studies will be needed to cover the whole coastline. | en_US |
