Description:Strong legislative mandates and investments in scientific programs have made the United States a world leader in sustainable fisheries management for seafood production, economic growth and outdoor recreation opportunities. NOAA Fisheries conducts targeted surveys, monitoring and research critical to tracking and understanding the physical, biological, and socio-economic conditions affecting fish stocks and fisheries. This information is essential for fisheries management and is used throughout the science-to-management process. However, changing climate and ocean conditions present new and growing challenges that affect the ability to understand and effectively manage fish stocks and fisheries. This report identifies the major challenges and possible solutions to addressing two of the main effects of changing climate and ocean conditions: shifts in stock distributions, and changing stock and ecosystem productivity.
