Understanding and forecasting changes in marine habitats due to global climate warming is crucial for sustainable fisheries. Using future environmental data provided by Global Climate Models (GCMs) occurrence records of Chub mackerel the North Pacific Ocean (2014-2023), we built eight individual models four ensemble simulate current habitat distribution forecast under three scenarios (SSP1-2.6, SSP2-4.5, SSP5-8.5) 2050s 2100s. Ensemble outperformed ones, with weighted average algorithm model achieving highest accuracy (AUC 0.994, TSS 0.929). Sea Surface Temperature (SST) chlorophyll-a (Chla) significantly influenced distribution. Predictions indicate high suitability areas are concentrated beyond 200-nautical-mile baseline. Under scenarios, expected decline, a shift towards higher latitudes deeper waters. High will be reduced.

Abstract Aim Future climate change threatens marine forests across the world, potentially disrupting ecosystem function and services. Nonetheless, direction intensity of climate‐induced changes in kelp forest biodiversity remain unknown, precluding well‐informed conservation management practices. Location Global. Methods We use machine‐learning models to forecast global species richness community composition 105 under contrasting Shared Socioeconomic Pathway (SSP) scenarios (decade 2090–2100): one aligned with Paris Agreement another substantially higher emissions. Results A poleward depth shift distributions is forecasted, translating into ~15% less area extent biome, coupled marked regional changes. Community are mostly projected Arctic, Northern Pacific Atlantic, Australasia, owing range expansions wide low latitude losses. Main Conclusions By surpassing expectations, reshuffling may simplify impair services numerous temperate regions Southern Africa, America tropical Pacific, where complete losses were without replacement. These estimates, flagging threatened species, as well refugial areas population persistence, can now inform conservation, restoration practices considering future change.

Marine biodiversity loss is a pressing global issue, intensified by human activities and climate change. Complementary to marine protected areas (MPAs), Other Effective Area-Based Conservation Measures (OECMs) have emerged as key tool mitigate this providing long-term protection. However, while OECMs primarily target specific taxa, they can also offer indirect conservation benefits (BCBs) wider range of taxa. In study, we assess the BCBs eleven in Gulf St. Lawrence, focusing on their role supporting life-history processes commercially important species such Atlantic halibut, Greenland redfish. We apply an integrated assessment that combines knowledge data previously unconnected provide information support OECM management. Our analysis reveals eight overlap with potential spawning habitats for these species, suggesting benefits. projected climate-driven changes bottom temperature, oxygen concentration, pH levels pose threat habitats, potentially undermining effectiveness OECMs. These findings underscore need adaptive management strategies incorporate climate-informed ecosystem indicators broaden focus beyond economically species. Such approaches are crucial ensuring continue both direct face accelerating change, thereby contributing efforts.

Cold-temperate and Arctic hard bottom coastal ecosystems are dominated by kelp forests, which have a high biomass production provide important ecosystem services, but subject to change due ocean warming. However, the photophysiological response increasing temperature of ecologically relevant species, such as Laminaria digitata, might depend on local thermal environment where population has developed. Therefore, effects growth rate, biochemical composition, maximum quantum yield, photosynthetic quotient carbon budget young cultured sporophytes digitata from at Spitsbergen (SPT; 4, 10 16 °C) cold-temperate North Sea island Helgoland (HLG; 10, 22 were comparatively analyzed.
