| الوصف: | Skipjack tuna play a significant role in global marine fisheries and are of particular interest for socio economy in the tropical waters of the Mozambique Channel. However, human-induced climate change has been leading to a reduction and reallocation of biomass, along with other ecological changes, thereby creating a feedback loop with negative socioeconomic consequences for fisheries-reliant coastal communities. The objective of this study was to predict the potential skipjack tuna fishing grounds by 2050 and 2100. To that end, skipjack tuna catch data were collected from Spanish purse seine fleets and subsequently Generalized Additive Models were used to model these data against a combination of environmental variables and future pathway projections from BIO-ORACLE models under optimistic (RCP2.6) and pessimistic (RCP8.5) scenarios. Both optimistic and pessimistic scenarios by 2050 predicted. 11 that the potential fishing grounds will relocate southward from tropical to more temperate waters, with 12 moderate shifts in the potential fishing grounds of purse seines to the latitude >16ºS. Whereas the 13 pessimistic scenario predicted higher displacement catches of purse seines in the southernmost part (>24ºS) 14 and moderate to high catches in northern (>20ºS) of the Mozambique Channel by the end of the century 15 Despite the degree of uncertainty surrounding the climate change impacts on skipjack tuna we argue that 16 fisheries stakeholders, administrators and regional tuna fisheries management organizations should work 17 toward building resilience and ensuring sustainability while reducing or mitigating vulnerability and 18 climate change impacts on local and regional communities and their livelihoods ; 2,044 |
