Climate change will have an adverse impact on trophic amplification in marine food webs

Climate change will have an adverse impact on trophic amplification in marine food webs

Climate-driven changes in ocean environmental conditions — ocean warming, deoxygenation and acidification — are projected to affect the physiological functions of marine organisms, their geographic distributions, biological life cycles and total biomass.

New FCRR: Understanding the fishers to change the fishery in the bottom trawl industry in India

New FCRR: Understanding the fishers to change the fishery in the bottom trawl industry in India

The report unravels the drivers and motivations that entice fishers and the fishery to start, engage in, and stop bottom trawling in India. Understanding the nuances within communities rather than viewing them as one entity is paramount for designing equitable policies. Moreover, the study highlights a pressing reality: fishers do not always want to fish and are sometimes forced to remain in the bottom trawl industry. Recognizing and addressing these insights are paramount in effectively constraining bottom trawling.
