TL;DR: It is shown that the distributions of both exploited and nonexploited North Sea fishes have responded markedly to recent increases in sea temperature, with nearly two-thirds of species shifting in mean latitude or depth or both over 25 years.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the vulnerability of 132 national economies to potential climate change impacts on their capture fisheries using an indicator-based approach and found that countries in Central and Western Africa (e.g. Malawi, Guinea, Senegal, and Uganda), Peru and Colombia in north-western South America, and four tropical Asian countries (Bangladesh, Cambodia, Pakistan, and Yemen) were identified as most vulnerable.

TL;DR: Stocks with high SPRF=0 were typically large-bodied, slow-growing, late-maturing, and highly fecund with long generation times, while stocks with high maximum recruitment showed the weakest density dependence of recruitment at high stock sizes.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the effect of hurricanes, coral bleaching and fishing on Caribbean-wide annual rates of change in reef complexity and find that hurricane impacts greatly influence reef complexity, with the most rapid rates of decline in complexity occurring at sites impacted during their survey period.

TL;DR: Four alternative future scenarios for the Great Barrier Reef and its fishing and tourism industries positing moderate and more extreme warming for 2050 and contrasting ‘limited’ and ‘ideal’ ecological and social adaptation are developed.
