On November 1, at the 11th World Mazu Culture Forum held in Putian, Fujian Province, the National Typical Cases of Marine Disaster Reduction (First Batch), solicited and compiled by the Ministry of Natural Resources, was officially released. Guided by the principle of “putting people and life first,” the cases include not only traditional measures such as observation and monitoring, forecasting and early warning, risk assessment, and hazard identification, but also innovative achievements in science- and technology-based and ecological disaster reduction, such as digital twins, artificial intelligence (AI), marine large models, and ecological protection and restoration. Balancing practical effectiveness with theoretical insights, the cases provide vivid examples for coastal regions across the country to shore up weaknesses in disaster reduction and improve the marine disaster risk governance system, helping to comprehensively enhance integrated marine disaster prevention and resilience and safeguard the high-quality development of the marine economy.
