Abstract

Climate change is rapidly altering our oceans. As the marine environment grows warmer, more acidic, and lower in oxygen, the impacts on marine life have been dramatic, including on the fish populations that support our productive fisheries. Some fish stocks are moving away from their former habitats to stay within their preferred temperature conditions. Others that are less able to move or adapt are declining altogether. Changing ocean conditions, more frequent extreme weather events, changes in prey availability, and disrupted reproductive cycles will make it more difficult for some fish stocks to thrive or maintain their numbers. In many cases, climate change is imposing new stressors on fish populations that are already stressed by fishing activities.
