Climate change modifies the abundance and distribution of marine species, which can reshape patterns species richness. The Northeast US Continental Shelf (NES) is a mid-latitude ecosystem experiencing changes in its physical environment biota; these involve both lower upper trophic level organisms. In this study, richness fish macroinvertebrates was examined based on trawl survey data. Using constrained subset strata comprising overall design, we observed some 451 over period 1968–2022. Species consistently higher autumn versus spring survey. This seasonal difference mainly due to contrast vertebrate taxa as invertebrate similar between seasons. Significant trends were found when considering all surveys. rate reflected an increase 10.8 per decade 16.5 autumn. enhanced taxonomic functional groups that examined, likely resulted from longer summering phases by migratory range shifts northward multiple response greater summer temperatures duration. NES positively correlated with temperature study period; however, also biomass, suggesting not limited redistribution alone. We expect continue increase, especially autumn, but contractions further community restructuring could lead declines northern end NES.

Behavioral Public Administration (BPA) has emerged as a growing field, emphasizing the importance of psychological and behavioral factors in public policy effectiveness bureaucratic performance. It explores how behaviors, cognitive biases, organizational dynamics shape outcomes administration. While BPA research expanded at national regional levels, its application village contexts—where governance directly affects lives—remains underexplored. Villages, smallest administrative units, play critical role managing resources implementing policies, yet within them, including leader-community interactions, are poorly understood. This study addresses this gap through bibliometric analysis systematic review, identifying key trends, dominant themes, gaps existing literature. By synthesizing findings offering practical recommendations, it aims to enhance scholarship inform policies tailored unique challenges governance.

Climate change is dramatically altering the environmental context in which marine resources are harvested and managed. A growing field of academic literature has begun to explore adaptive capacity fishers managers respond this change, but much abstract theory-driven. Therefore, it unclear whether accurately reflects adaptation priorities fishery management practitioners, or there gaps that these practitioners could fill with on-the-ground knowledge. Second, even if principles perfectly aligned practitioners' priorities, what extent actively considered decision making process, not, why. This study seeks address questions by confronting fisheries professionals ideas around through a series semi-structured interviews federal scientists whose work informs United States regional system. The then uses identify three low-cost, high-impact action items make concepts from more accessible useful expand incorporating expertise. These are: 1) distinguish management, 2) use practitioner insights contextualize elements within constraints opportunities governance systems, 3) research explicitly consider adapt on appropriate timelines given scale pace systemic change.

The Gulf of Maine in the northwestern Atlantic Ocean is one world’s fastest warming marine regions. Changes ocean conditions are affecting growth, survival, and distribution American lobster ( Homarus americanus), which supports iconic fisheries along coast Maine, USA. In this study, we analyzed 15 years oral records from Fishermen’s Climate Roundtables to explore fishermen’s observations responses social–ecological changes. Fishermen reported an overall shift biomass further east offshore, resulting strategic expansion fishing seasons areas. Biomass shifts were thought be connected increases temperature, decreases salinity, a currents, loss predator species. Fishing strategies categorized according five domains adaptive capacity, but majority fishers’ fell into two domains: “access assets” “diversity flexibility”. Strategies within these included increased federal extension seasons. highlighted data gaps that need addressed meet challenges climate change. Fisheries learning exchanges, such as Roundtables, create social networks foster knowledge sharing support continued viability local livelihoods.
