中國新增9個國家級海洋公園 促海洋生態保護

The State Oceanic Administration (SOA) has announced nine new state-level marine parks, bringing the total number of such parks in China to 42.

中國國家海洋局日前公佈了九個新的國家級海洋公園，這就使得這樣的公園的總數達到了42個。

The new parks are located in the provinces of Liaoning, Shandong, Fujian, Guangdong and Hainan, according to an SOA circular.

根據國家海洋局發佈的通知顯示，這些新的公園分佈於遼寧、山東、福建、廣東、海南等省份。

The SOA has ordered local marine authorities in these provinces to start demarcating the parks, and not to arbitrarily adjust or change the parks' boundaries and zoning.

國家海洋局已下令地方海事局在這些省份開始劃定公園範圍，不得隨意調整或改變公園的界限和分區。

The SOA has stressed the need to improve protection of the marine environment when tourism and aquaculture activities are conducted in certain zones of the parks.

國家海洋局強調，在公園某些區域開展旅遊、生態養殖等活動的同時，還需要加強海洋環境的保護。

China's state-level marine parks, first introduced in 2011, offer public space for coastal recreation, enhance protection of marine ecosystems and boost sustainable development of coastal tourism, an SOA official said.

國家海洋局一位官員表示，於2011年首次推出的中國國家級海洋公園，爲濱海休閒提供了公共空間，加強了海洋生態系統的保護，並促進了濱海旅遊業的可持續發展。
