Abstract
The study illustrates using the Combined IAD-SES (CIS) framework in the context of artisanal fisheries in Chilika Lagoon of Odisha, India. Major breakpoints that changed the Lagoon system's overall setting are the introduction of shrimp culture in the 1990s, the opening of a new artificial mouth on 23rd September 2000, and the Post-Fani period (2019- onwards). The CIS Framework encapsulates the area's major ecological, social, economic, and biological dynamics effectively, providing a blueprint for future interdisciplinary research. Further, it can serve as a tool for policymakers to integrate fish and food resources in an agri-food system that can make it more inclusive and robust.
