Description:Climate change is driving the redistribution of species throughout the oceans. However, the speed and magnitude of species responses, including shifts in their distribution, are variable and species specific. Quantifying the effect of environmental conditions on species distributions is crucial to informing management and conservation efforts. Blue marlin (Makaira nigricans) is a wide-ranging top predator occurring circumglobally in tropical and subtropical waters and is heavily impacted by international longline fisheries. This study aimed to predict the global distribution of blue marlin and characterize the effects of climate variability thereon.
