Harnessing Fisheries Oceanography from Nowcasts to Climate Projections for Sustainable and Resilient Fisheries
Session ID#: 259856
Session Description:
As climate variability and long-term change continue to reshape marine ecosystems, pelagic fisheries remain among the most dynamic and vulnerable sectors of the ocean. This session invites contributions that demonstrate how predictive tools—from real-time nowcasts to century-scale climate projections—can support sustainable fisheries management, reduce risks to protected species, and strengthen the resilience of fishing communities. We aim to bridge the disciplines of ocean forecasting, fisheries oceanography, and socio-economic analysis to highlight innovative approaches in ecological modeling, remote sensing, and decision-support systems. We welcome case studies that integrate physical oceanography, biological responses, and human dimensions, such as early warning systems for extreme events, real-time risk assessment tools, and long-term scenario planning for spatial management, fisheries access, and ocean-use conflict resolution. Special emphasis will be placed on the development and application of climate-informed tools that support adaptive governance and advance progress toward the UN Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDGs 13 (Climate Action) and 14 (Life Below Water). By bringing together researchers, policymakers, fisheries managers, and other stakeholders, this session will foster interdisciplinary dialogue and highlight integrated strategies for building climate-resilient ocean futures.
