Nearly half of countries’ shared fish stocks are on the move due to climate change, prompting dispute concerns

Nearly half of countries’ shared fish stocks are on the move due to climate change, prompting dispute concerns

The study tracked the shifting ranges of 9,132 transboundary fish stocks, which account for 80 per cent of catch taken from the world’s EEZs, starting in 2006 and projecting to the year 2100.

Farmed seafood supply at risk if we don’t act on climate change

Farmed seafood supply at risk if we don’t act on climate change

If we continue to burn fossil fuels at our current rate, the amount of seafood able to be farmed sustainably will increase by only 8% by 2050, and decline by 16% by 2090.

Marine heatwaves could wipe out an extra six per cent of a country’s fish catches, costing millions their jobs

Marine heatwaves could wipe out an extra six per cent of a country’s fish catches, costing millions their jobs

Extremely hot years will wipe out hundreds of thousands of tonnes of fish available for catch in a country’s waters in this century

Coral reefs are 50% less able to provide food, jobs, and climate protection than in 1950s, putting millions at risk

Coral reefs are 50% less able to provide food, jobs, and climate protection than in 1950s, putting millions at risk

Global coverage of living corals had declined by about half since the 1950s and consequently, the diversity of species had also declined, by more than 60%.

World Ocean Day – Dr. Gabriel Reygondeau

Asking countries to carry an equal share of the load may be tidy from a legislative perspective, but it doesn’t do much for biodiversity

2021 World Ocean Week – June 7-11

2021 World Ocean Week – June 7-11

We asked ocean researchers from the IOF to envision how the target of protecting at least 30% of the world’s oceans by 2030 might be achieved.

Ecosystem modelling paints a devastating picture for top marine predators by 2099

Ecosystem modelling paints a devastating picture for top marine predators by 2099

Without effective carbon mitigation the ocean would lose 18% of animal biomass by 2099 relative to the present day.

Management of exploited transboundary fish stocks requires international cooperation

Management of exploited transboundary fish stocks requires international cooperation

With an average catch of 48 million tonnes per year, and USD $77 billion in annual fishing revenue, transboundary species support critical fisheries, and require international cooperation to manage.
