SciDevNet: Fish catches will need to increase by only 3.4 per cent to meet global dietary demand in 2050, according to a study predicting how climate change will affect marine ecosystems. The authors warn that achieving this will require the wider implementation of sustainable harvesting, such as technological developments to reduce dependence on wild stock for farmed fish feed, and more-effective distribution of wild fish products from regions with a surplus to those with a deficit. This means that changes...

Climate change can affect fisheries by warming the seas, affecting chlorophyll production, which fuels phytoplankton, the staple food of both shrimp and sardines. But a research team led by Ernesto Chávez Ortiz, from the National Polytechnic Institute (IPN) in Mexico City, which runs the Interdisciplinary Center of Marine Sciences...
