This book was released on 2019-06-28 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tremendous advances in oceanographic observing and modeling systems over the last decade have led to unprecedented developments in the nature of information available to marine science. While improvements in observational technologies and networks have garnered much attention, remarkable developments in forecasting the ocean have received much less focus. Exploiting this new predictive skill to improve scientific understanding, generate advice and aid in the management of marine resources, is emerging as one of the new challenges of marine science. Translating predictions of the physical environment into biological outcomes, however, is not straightforward. Fisheries scientists, for example, have been trying to understand the links between physics and biology, and generate predictions of variables such as recruitment, for close to a century, with limited success. Nevertheless, spatial distributions and the timing of key events, which have received less focus, are often tightly linked to the physical environment and may have management-relevant applications. The first-such forecasts based on this skill are now starting to emerge. This Frontiers in Marine Science Research Topic provides a snapshot of the state-of-the-art in Marine Ecological Prediction. It covers the opportunities for developing such forecasts, technical approaches that could be employed, and examples where the technology is already being applied. This body of work therefore marks an important milestone on the route to developing this new and exciting field of marine science.

The recent report to Congress by the US Environmental Protection Agency included an analysis of potential effects of global warming on fisheries of the Great Lakes, California, and the Southeast. In California, the report stated that salinity increases in the San Francisco Bay could enhance the abundance of marine fish species, while anadromous species could be adversely affected. This paper discusses global climate changes and the effects on Pacific Northwest Salmonids. The impacts of climate change or Spring Chinook production in the Yakima Sub-basin was simulated using a computer modeling system developed for the Northwest Power planning council. 35 refs., 1 fig., 1 tab.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A changing environment is not a new challenge for Pacific salmon. This group of fishes has proven resilient, persisting over millions of years while surviving massive changes in climate and physical habitats. There is therefore reason to believe that salmon will be able to adapt to the changes anticipated in association with global climate change. Indeed, the level of warming predicted for the coming century seems a surmountable challenge for salmon at the genus level. However, climate change is impacting and will continue to impact individual populations, driving marked changes in their ecology, abundance and life-histories. The distinction between species and population is important because the majority of ecological, cultural and economic values provided by salmon are manifest at local or regional scales and tied to specific populations, species and life-history types. Furthermore, it is typically at these scales that fisheries and fish habitats are managed. Although the influence of past climate variability on the productivity of salmon populations demonstrates sensitivity of these species to environmental change, unanticipated and unintuitive outcomes are possible given the complexity and diversity of the species and their life-histories. Understanding past variability and predicting future trajectories of salmon populations therefore requires an in-depth understanding of the mechanisms that link environmental change to population productivity. This information can help to ensure that fisheries management serves to increase resilience of salmon populations and avoids actions that amplify potential negative consequences of climate change. This dissertation seeks to contribute to the informed management of Pacific salmon in a warming world through development of theory and in-depth exploration of cases where salmon populations have responded to changing environments. Chapter 1 considers the underappreciated phenomenon of temporal selection in fisheries and its implications for climate adaptation by salmon and other fishes. Chapter 2 tests a series of hypotheses that link observed warming in Lake Iliamna, Alaska to changes in sockeye salmon life-history and productivity. Chapter 3 describes a novel pattern of adult mortality in spawning sockeye salmon and demonstrates that low streamflow can create habitat conditions under which density-dependent spawning failure may occur. Chapter 4 describes changes in reproductive timing of Cedar River, Washington sockeye salmon and examines the relative influence of natural and artificial selection on phenological change and climate change resilience. Collectively, this research demonstrates some of the diverse responses that can be expected in salmon populations responding to climate change, emphasizes the importance of life-history and phenological diversity as adaptive pathways for populations impacted by climate change, and argues for management that maximizes these forms of diversity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change poses threats to salmonid fishes causing their populations to decline and inducing sub-lethal effects. Increases in temperature change aquatic habitats and opportunities for fish to feed and find shelter. This Special Issue documents how these alterations influence salmonid populations. Across ten papers, leading ecologists from Europe and North America have exhibited how climate warming has influenced the ecology of salmonids in terms of their metabolic rates, development, growth, body size, sexual maturation, and reproductive traits. Climate change also influences their behaviors, including migrations, intraspecific competition, and predation. For instance, salmonids avoid warm stressful temperatures by seeking out cold tributary plumes, groundwater springs, alcoves and hyporheic upwellings, deep lakes, and artificial impoundments. Elevated temperatures affect their physiological, genetic, and epigenetic processes, which are important for their adaptations. This volume also lists examples of how climate change influences interspecific predation, and via mathematical modelling, it shows how climate conditions influence competition between trout and salmon in rivers. The authors have also revealed major research gaps related to species interactions, behavioral responses, and the effects of climate change across the fishes' life stages. This collection of research papers may also help managers in performing better salmonid management in a changing climate.

This book was released on 2017-09-20 with total page 1048 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive review of the current and future effects of climate change on the world’s fisheries and aquaculture operations The first book of its kind, Climate Change Impacts on Fisheries and Aquaculture explores the impacts of climate change on global fisheries resources and on marine aquaculture. It also offers expert suggestions on possible adaptations to reduce those impacts. The world's climate is changing more rapidly than scientists had envisioned just a few years ago, and the potential impact of climate change on world food production is quite alarming. Nowhere is the sense of alarm more keenly felt than among those who study the warming of the world's oceans. Evidence of the dire effects of climate change on fisheries and fish farming has now mounted to such an extent that the need for a book such as this has become urgent. A landmark publication devoted exclusively to how climate change is affecting and is likely to affect commercially vital fisheries and aquaculture operations globally, Climate Change Impacts on Fisheries and Aquaculture provides scientists and fishery managers with a summary of and reference point for information on the subject which has been gathered thus far. Covers an array of critical topics and assesses reviews of climate change impacts on fisheries and aquaculture from many countries, including Japan, Mexico, South Africa, Australia, Chile, US, UK, New Zealand, Pacific Islands, India and others Features chapters on the effects of climate change on pelagic species, cod, lobsters, plankton, macroalgae, seagrasses and coral reefs Reviews the spread of diseases, economic and social impacts, marine aquaculture and adaptation in aquaculture under climate change Includes special reports on the Antarctic Ocean, the Caribbean Sea, the Arctic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea Extensive references throughout the book make this volume both a comprehensive text for general study and a reference/guide to further research for fisheries scientists, fisheries managers, aquaculture personnel, climate change specialists, aquatic invertebrate and vertebrate biologists, physiologists, marine biologists, economists, environmentalist biologists and planners.
