Marine heatwaves (MHWs) have intensified in frequency, duration, and severity over recent decades. These events, defined by unusually warm sea surface temperatures (SSTs), can cause significant ecological impacts. This is particularly so for Pacific Island countries, such as Vanuatu, where communities rely on marine resources their food livelihoods. A common response to MHWs the movement of oceanic species cooler waters. Predicting shifts through monitoring SST isotherms help identify thermal boundaries that favor. study explores connection between MHWs, isotherm movement, tuna abundance Vanuatu. The displacement 28 °C was analyzed across three major MHW events (2008–2009, 2016, 2021–2022). It found with longer duration greater intensity caused more displacement. Additionally, El Niño–Southern Oscillation had an important influence formation movement. effects these displacements distribution varied events. ability monitor could be effective instrument prediction areas suppressed or abundant activity used aid proactive management security fishery sectors.
