I have found that, without reference, several articles state that fisheries regulations are derivative of terrestrial resource regulations (hunting, logging). While certain aspects are similar, such as quota systems, permit requirements, closed seasons etc., I have yet to find clarity as to which came first and whether or not one is, in fact, based on the other. It's useful to know if the regulations share a similar foundation as a framework for reducing illegal resource use from one may be applicable to the other.

I am sure there has been. It might be more common in a society where people have extensive dependence on natural resources for their subsistence. However, it is not uncommon in developed societies as well. For example, Forestry Best Management practices consider both terrestrial and aquatic policies and these have been widely studied together.
Similiarities Similarities of terrestrial and marine regulations for control of pollution or habitat management is most likely just by chance. True, those studying and writing regulations may have some overlap. The Forest industry, rather than be regulated, worked hard to set logging standards and BMPs to protect water quality and associated habitats. Other industries and fisheries experts have varied in their approaches, timing and intensity. Certain species, systems, drinking waters, etc. received priority in time, funding and effort. Examples of good work and things that worked well were probably replicated, and adjusted to apply to the situation.or reworded better
Fishing methods, size and bag limits are linked, since plenty of species change their freshwater habitat for a sea habitat for a while (salmon regulations, redfish in NC, etc.). The limits, restrictions based on monitoring and stakeholders' interests. Since the freshwater exploitation cause immediate issues, easier to monitor and more diverse the stakeholders are, the freshwater protection system is more developed, so best practices are rather from freshwater regulations than the opposite.
Oceans were considered as infinite fish resources with infinite pollution tolerance and resistance until the 1970 - 1990.
Most of the time, nutrients are washed and deposited from the adjacent terrestrial ecosystems to the marines by various agents including moving water, wind, melting ice, landslides, and gravity so that most essential nutrients are readily available in the marine ecosystems where producers are able to prepare their food . Terrestrial ecosystems are ecosystems found only in land; these include tropical rain forests, deserts, grasslands, deciduous forests, tundra, and taiga. Aquatic ecosystems are ecosystems found in bodies of water; these include lakes, rivers, ponds, wetlands, oceans, and seas. Marine Energy Resources Total accumulation is very rich, and it is a great wealth, but the development of marine resources is not unlimited. Although it can promote the development of national economy, the sustainable development of marine resources should be considered. As the marine science and technology are growing today, the sustainability of marine resources is also seriously threatened. Marine conservation can also increase resilience in maintaining marine ecosystems. Marine-protected areas can be used to protect geological features and processes that are identified as unique or distinctive. This can help protect marine biodiversity such as fish, coral reefs, and other marine animals Marine systems suffer from a scarcity of spatial data relative to terrestrial counterparts. In terrestrial systems the spatial patterns of land-use/land-cover are relatively straightforward to access via satellite and have been used as proxy indicators of service provisions. In contrast, remote sensing tools used to study the surface of the Earth are much less effective at capturing images of the seabed, and by extension marine habitats. Marine waters and their constituents are also frequently driven great distances by winds, tides, and currents. This creates a challenge for management as the identification and protection of areas where ecosystem services are exploited is not necessarily sufficient to ensure sustained service delivery. Further complications arise from the three-dimensional uses of marine systems, incorporating activities that use the sea surface, the water column and the benthic habitats below. Awareness is needed around the limited progress in marine systems as this could affect the way we value the biosphere and the relative proportion between biomes. They often serve important ecological functions, provide coastal protection, and are critical resources for food, energy, tourism and economic development. In many parts of the world, such marine and coastal systems are under stress or are threatened from a variety of sources, both human and natural. Both aquatic and terrestrial animals can be vertebrates and invertebrates. Both aquatic and terrestrial animals show various adaptations to overcome different environmental conditions in each habitat. Aquatic biomes are probably the most important of all the biomes. Their medium, water, is a major natural resource. Water is the basis of life, it supports life, and countless species live in it for all or part of their lives.
