Climate risk to European fisheries and coastal communities

by CERES | Sep 29, 2021 | CERES News, CERES publications, CERES Science, marine fisheries

CERES researchers present climate risk analyses for 1) 105 ocean-dependent communities and 2) 380 fishing fleets in Europe. Their unique approach provides a perspective over the climate risks in this diverse and populous continent that is unprecedented in both its...

Fish abundance and catch data for the Northwest European Shelf and Mediterranean Sea from 2006 to 2098 derived from climate projections

by CERES | Sep 21, 2020 | CERES publications, marine fisheries

The SS-DBEM is a mechanistic model, which means that it takes into account aspects of ecology (e.g. habitat preference, migration) and physiology (e.g. growth and reproduction) to determine biomass and distribution of fish species in response to changes in the...

Linking individual physiological indicators to the productivity of fish populations: A case study of Atlantic herring

by CERES | Feb 26, 2020 | CERES News, CERES publications, marine fisheries

Physiological measures can help to identify environmental thresholds that constrain organismal-level performance. Relating these thresholds, in a cause-and-effect manner, to long-term changes in the vital rates (e.g. growth, survival, reproduction) of wild populations...

Changes in the spawning habitat of two small pelagic fish in the Northwestern Mediterranean

by CERES | Dec 22, 2019 | CERES publications, marine fisheries

CERES researchers investigated the effects of three sea surface oceanographic variables (temperature, salinity and chlorophyll a) on the abundance of eggs and larvae of two summer-spawning species in the NW Mediterranean sea, the anchovy Engraulis encrasicolus and the...

Management Scenarios Under Climate Change – A Study of the Nordic and Barents Seas

by CERES | Nov 5, 2019 | CERES publications, CERES Science, marine fisheries, Uncategorized

The effects of increasing fishing pressure in combination with temperature increases in the Nordic and Barents Seas have been evaluated using an end-to-end model for the area forced by a downscaled RCP 4.5 climate scenario. The scenarios that have been applied have...

The attitudes of Italian consumers towards jellyfish as novel food

by CERES | Aug 27, 2019 | CERES publications, CERES Science, marine fisheries

CERES researchers designed a questionnaire to assess the jellyfish consumption attitude (JCA) of respondents and explore the effect of their individual traits (socio-demography, personality, behavior habits, neophobia, disgust sensitivity) on JCA. Gender, age, and...
