🌍 Climate change is already reshaping Mediterranean fisheries. 📊 With indicators like MTC and MTR, we can anticipate risks and opportunities. 💡 Time to act: science, management, and adaptation. #FutureOfFisheries #BlueTransformation

⚠️ Species like sardine, hake, and Norway lobster are declining. 📉 Fewer catches, lower income. 📈 But others like red shrimp and anchovy are on the rise. #CommercialSpecies #ClimateAndSea

🐟🔥 The sea is warming… and that’s changing what we catch and how much it’s worth. 📊 In the NW Mediterranean, we analyzed 23 years of data to understand how climate change is reshaping fisheries. #ClimateChange #Fisheries #Mediterranean @icmcsic.bsky.social  #LuciaEspasandin

🚨Paper alert! 🐟 What do young Atlantic bluefin tuna eat in the Mediterranean? 📍 We studied their diet in the Gulf of Valencia over 30 years. 🔍 Have their habits changed? Are they affecting sardines and anchovies? 👇 Let’s dive in! @ICMCSIC #BluefinTuna #MedSea #MarineScience

8️⃣ 🐚 Molluscs such as the Turbinate monodont are abundant in archaeological records. They’re key to reconstructing past conditions, but we need to study their ecological roles more. #Molluscs #MarineArchaeology

1️⃣🌊The Mediterranean is a biodiversity hotspot, but also a witness to climate and human impacts over the last 130k years.  We conducted a systematic review to understand how these changes affected marine mammals, fish, and molluscs. @icmcsic.bsky.social  @maria-bas.bsky.social  ‪@kagiadi.bsky.social

🌊 Marine heatwaves are rising—how do Mediterranean ecosystems respond? Andrea Kaplan’s poster at #EMBS2025 shows uneven impacts across depths & regions. Northern areas may act as refuges, but for how long? Get acces: https://lc.cx/o70jR0#EMBS2025 @icmcsic.bsky.social

1️⃣ What do fish do when they see a human underwater? We studied how white seabream (Diplodus sargus) react when approached by a snorkeler or a spearfisher. Do they flee sooner when alone or in a group? 🤿 #MarineScience #OceanLife @icmcsic.bsky.social  @valeriosbra.bsky.social

📚 Key takeaways: ✔️ All voices must be heard ✔️ MPAs should reflect local perspectives ✔️ Co-management and transparency are essential #MarineGovernance #ScienceForImpact

🔍 What do fishers, scientists, and managers prioritize to secure the future of fishing in Mallorca? We explored this in the Llevant de Mallorca – Cala Ratjada Marine Reserve in this new study!⭐  Here's what we found 👇 #SustainableFisheries #MPA  @ICMCSIC #JuanjoMartin @miquelortega.bsky.social

9️⃣ Final takeaway: To meet the 30x30 goal by 2030, we need MPAs that truly protect marine life. 🔑Our study offers key insights to improve marine conservation. 📖 Read the full article 👉

8️⃣ What do we recommend? 🔍 More transparency about what’s allowed and why. 🤝 Inclusive management with local communities and fishers. 📈 It’s not just about protecting more area, it’s about protecting it better ✅.

🧵 Did you know many Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) in Spain still allow intensive fishing? 🌊🐟 Here’s what’s really happening in the Mediterranean and why stronger protection is urgently needed. 👇 #MarineConservation @icmcsic.bsky.social#MarineConservation#MariaCastro
