15Estimating the impacts of climate change on the habitat suitability of common minke whales integrating local adaptation
Frontiers in Marine Science, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 9
Published: Aug. 9, 2022
Climate change is exerting unprecedented effects on the habitats of marine mammals. Common minke whales ( Balaenoptera acutorostrata ) have suffered immense harm from commercial whaling, and recovery this species likely threatened by climate change. To better manage conserve species, it important to predict its current habitat distribution potential under future scenarios. Such predictions are typically generated models (SDMs), which construct a correlation between occurrence data environmental variables. SDMs commonly constructed at level, assuming homogenous response climatic variables across their entire geographic range. Spatially segregated populations same inhabit distinct environments gradually adapt local conditions, resulting in niche differentiation among populations. Species-level that ignore adaptation mask differences population responses might present an unrealistic picture distributions. Based morphological genetic evidence, common whale was divided into three populations: North Atlantic (NAP), Southern Hemisphere (SHP) Pacific (NPP); these isolated areas with conditions. We quantified realized niches found evidence significant ecological differentiation. then levels compared two types different Both projected similar trends range, contraction suitable for NAP SHP expansion NPP. However, magnitudes differed; population-level model more optimistic results NAP, indicating less loss. This study highlighted importance considering when estimating impact suitability. These spatiotemporal provide essential knowledge designing climate-adaptive conservation management strategies, such as delimitation mobile protected (MPAs).

1Coastal fisheries adaptations to increasing climate change exposure in Japan
People and Nature, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: unknown

Abstract Climate change‐driven ocean warming is altering the geographic ranges of species, leading to a poleward shift tropical species into temperate regions (tropicalisation). This threatens native marine community assemblages by changing availability traditional resources, thus impacting livelihood and well‐being coastal fisheries. Fishers' individual responses are expected transition from remaining coping adapting transforming as climate change exposure increases, yet empirical evidence limited. The existing strong thermal gradient along western coast Shikoku (Japan), an area experiencing tropicalisation, provides unique opportunity analyse how facing different levels (North: low, Centre: medium South: high) affect fishers' in relation their adaptive capacity.

6Guests or pests? Eirenid hydroids living on the soft tissue of bivalves
Reviews in Aquaculture, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 16(1), P. 106 - 120
Published: April 23, 2023
Abstract Both wild and reared bivalves can host hydroids from the Eirenidae family which settle on soft body parts of their host. Thousands have been observed a single bivalve, often severe detrimental effects However, this relationship has received little attention in aquaculture research, is probably due to lack baseline data. An extensive review was conducted (i) show current level knowledge association between eirenids bivalves, providing benchmark for future research; (ii) detect critical combination biotic/abiotic factors that could switch commensalism infestation (iii) identify research priorities studies. Seventy scientific papers were screened provide ecological information useful understanding hydroid‐host‐environment interactions global spatial bathymetric distribution relationship. Although main parameters influencing hydroid abundance identified, it challenging collate such heterogeneous data sources. A standardized method collection proposed obtain more robust comparable association. The most relevant unstudied issue potential physiological qualitative changes occur infested bivalves. Monitoring needed prevent or control hyper‐proliferation symbionts eventual synergistic with climate change. This be fundamental species living areas particularly prone regime shifts, as semi‐enclosed basins estuarine habitats.
