The research aims to study the reasons for the decrease in the amount of fish in the Raysut are of which came the research questions What is the impact of industrial facilities in Raysut on the aquatic Environment?How do water characteristics affect marine organisms?How to practice fishing in Raysut? We set up a time plan for work that began with a field visit to the study site and identified several other sites to study to help discover the main cause of the problem, limit the number of industrial establishments and how to dispose of the waste, the Department of Fisheries Development to follow up the fishing plan and the extent of its control , Fisheries Research Center of Dhofar Governorate to cooperate with the team in the study , fishermen to share their views and Implementation of atmosphere and hydrosphere cover protocols at specified sites.
Results were:The industrial city has 190 Industrial Projects, Such as Cement plant, Chemical plant, Methanol project , the difference was evident in the measurement of transparency and dissolved oxygen,The Fisheries Development Service reported that there is no Overfishing,The group of fishermen reported the existence of this problem at intervals and the start of their impact is increasing
Conclusion:The industrial city has a negative impact on the marine environment of Raysut, Changing natural measurements of water have a direct effect on the low quantity of fish and There is no illegal fishing and therefore has no effect.
Recommendations:Ministry of Trade and Industry Evaluation of the work of the industrial establishments in the region and finding solutions for disposal of waste,Ministry of Regional Municipalities and Water Resources Increasing and cultivating aquatic plants in the region to increase Dissolved oxygen and food with water and Fisheries Research Center: Developing performance and increasing research and studies on water.
