Less ice – more light. What will life be like in a bright, new Arctic? Earlier spring blooms mean less food in summer, when fish need it most. Polar cod in the Barents Sea are particularly vulnerable. 🧪 🌊 🦑 @oysteinvarpe.bsky.social @unibergen.bsky.social bjerknes.uib.no/en/news/en-l...

A new book released by the Pacific Community at #COP30 last week highlights governance and adaptation approaches that can help secure resilient futures for Pacific Island communities and the sea, according to co-editor Colette Wabnitz. Learn more ⤵️ oceansolutions.stanford.edu/news/new-res...

Just in time for #COP30, I left my usual warmer waters to work with a great set of folks on this research that illuminates (pun intended) how climate change will impact the amount of light reaching Arctic marine ecosystems. Read more in our paper 👇 Our key findings include: (1/4) rdcu.be/eOz1L

Our paper shows that the Port State Measures Agreement (PSMA), a global agreement to end #IUUFishing, has made it harder for foreign vessels to land catches where they are not subject to PSMA monitoring. We highlight ways to strengthen its impact: 1/ tinyurl.com/yfx5t2hb

#NewPaper in Science Advances finds that domestic fishing vessels account for the majority of port visits around the world. Comprehensive inspections at port for both foreign and domestic fishing fleets are a key deterrent for #illegalfishing. 🔗 stanford.io/45LXlB2 📷 Hong Wu/Getty Images

As climate change pushes fish stocks to new places, temperature, rainfall, waves, and storms will impact fishers' health and well-being, especially as they embark on potentially longer journeys to catch the same amount of fish. We explore these dynamics in our new paper: tinyurl.com/yc669f8p 1/

Today is the International Day for the Fight against Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated (IUU) Fishing. In 2022, our team mapped the regions and ports at highest risk for IUU fishing: www.nature.com/articles/s41... Now, they're studying vessel patterns to help inform tools to reduce IUU fishing.
