Climate change challenges organisms to adapt or move track changes in environments space and time. We used two measures of thermal shifts from analyses global temperatures over the past 50 years describe pace climate that species should track: velocity (geographic isotherms time) shift seasonal timing temperatures. Both are higher ocean than on land at some latitudes, despite slower warming. These indices give a complex mosaic predicted range phenology deviate simple poleward migration...
Climate change is driving changes in the physical and chemical properties of ocean that have consequences for marine ecosystems. Here, we review evidence responses life to recent climate across regions, from tropical seas polar oceans. We consider observed calcification rates, demography, abundance, distribution phenology species. draw on a database impacts species, supplemented with Fifth Assessment Report Intergovernmental Panel Change. discuss factors limit or facilitate species'...
Abstract Richardson, A. J. 2008. In hot water: zooplankton and climate change. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 65: 279–295. An overview is provided the observed potential future responses communities to global warming. I begin by describing importance in ocean ecosystems attributes that make them sensitive beacons Global warming may have even greater repercussions for marine than terrestrial ecosystems, because temperature influences water column stability, nutrient enrichment, degree new...
It is now widely accepted that global warming occurring, yet its effects on the world's largest ecosystem, marine pelagic realm, are largely unknown. We show sea surface in Northeast Atlantic accompanied by increasing phytoplankton abundance cooler regions and decreasing warmer regions. This impact propagates up food web (bottom-up control) through copepod herbivores to zooplankton carnivores because of tight trophic coupling. Future therefore likely alter spatial distribution primary...
1. Abundant mid-trophic pelagic fish often play a central role in marine ecosystems, both as links between zooplankton and top predators important fishery targets. In the North Sea, lesser sandeel occupies this position, being main prey of many bird, mammal target major industrial fishery. However, since 2003, landings have decreased by > 50%, sandeel-dependent seabirds experienced breeding failures 2004. 2. Despite economic implications, current understanding regulation key constituents...
Aim Species distribution models (SDMs) have been used to address a wide range of theoretical and applied questions in the terrestrial realm, but marine-based applications remain relatively scarce. In this review, we consider how conceptual practical issues associated with SDMs apply marine organisms highlight challenges relevant improving SDMs. Location We include studies from both systems that encompass many geographic locations around globe. Methods first performed literature search...
Globally, many fish species are overexploited, and stocks have collapsed. This crisis, along with increasing concerns over flow-on effects on ecosystems, has caused a reevaluation of traditional fisheries management practices, new ecosystem-based (EBFM) paradigm emerged. As part this approach, selective fishing is widely encouraged in the belief that nonselective adverse impacts. In particular, incidental bycatch seen as wasteful negative feature fishing, methods to reduce implemented...
Global trends in the occurrence, toxicity and risk posed by harmful algal blooms to natural systems, human health coastal economies are poorly constrained, but widely thought be increasing due climate change nutrient pollution. Here, we conduct a statistical analysis on global dataset extracted from Harmful Algae Event Database Ocean Biodiversity Information System for period 1985-2018 investigate temporal frequency distribution of marine blooms. We find no uniform trend number events their...
Background Health-promoting polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are abundant in forages grazed by ruminants and vegetable fish oils used as dietary supplements, but only a small proportion of PUFA finds its way into meat milk, because biohydrogenation the rumen. Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens plays major role this activity. The aim study was to investigate mechanisms which affect growth B. , how metabolized metabolic response presence PUFA. Results Linoleic acid (LA; cis -9, -12-18:2) α-linolenic...
Global stressors, including climate change, are a major threat to ecosystems, but they cannot be halted by local actions. Ecosystem management is thus attempting compensate for the impacts of global stressors reducing such as overfishing. This approach assumes that interact additively or synergistically, whereby combined effect two at least sum their isolated effects. It not clear, however, how should proceed antagonistic interactions among where multiple do have an additive greater impact....
Significance We use distribution data on 48,661 species to show that marine biodiversity has been responding climate warming at a global scale. richness levels off or declines in latitudinal bands with average annual sea surface temperatures exceeding 20 °C. This results dip around the equator become more pronounced as warmed, especially for pelagic species. Previous studies have either only predicted such effects provided regional scales limited numbers of taxa.
Projections of climate change impacts on marine ecosystems have revealed long-term declines in global animal biomass and unevenly distributed fisheries. Here we apply an enhanced suite ecosystem models from the Fisheries Marine Ecosystem Model Intercomparison Project (Fish-MIP), forced by new-generation Earth system model outputs Phase 6 Coupled (CMIP6), to provide insights into how projected will affect future ocean ecosystems. Compared with previous generation CMIP5-forced Fish-MIP...
