Exciting work led by @BlanchardJulia!!! Watch this space for more updates! @FishMip @IMASUTAS @CMS_UTas
New #OceanDecade Programme: The Future of Fisheries and Marine Ecosystems 🎣
Led by @imasutas, FishMIP will provide new ways to test marine ecosystem model ensembles, construct future scenarios of changing climate and sea-use, and provide projections.

Are fish smaller in warmer waters? If you look at the average fish in the community, then - yes. And we can quantify just how much smaller! @Am_Ro_Co - excellent work. @ReefLifeSurvey @IMASUTAS
NEW STUDY: Mean reef fish body size decreases towards warmer waters
Coghlan et al. analysed 15,000+ surveys across a 15°C SST gradient to find a significant decrease in mean fish body size with warmer waters, averaging a 5% reduction per 1°C increase.

ALT Temperature gradients in the length-structure of Australian reef fish communities. (a) Mean individual length (cm) of all fishes (bony and cartilaginous) per transect, with mean annual sea surface temperature (SST; °C) across space. (b) As for a, but with mean length calculated for each trophic guild, per transect, separately (note different scales on y-axes). Dashed line shows the average prediction lines. Grey bands show full confidence intervals from both fixed and random effects. Fish icons illustrate the approximate relative mean length of fishes at 15°C and 30°C.

Can the effect of temperature on metabolism explain population trends of bluefin #tuna- and predict the future?
In a new paper we use a stable #isotope based proxy to measure thermal sensitivity of field metabolism in Atlantic BFT

Are you good with Quarto websites? I want to redo this website (sif.lt) in Quarto through Github. If this is something you can do, PM me with your timeline and price. No need to copy everything precisely, but just set the structure, which I can later edit.

Over 1 in 3 young people in Oz have #mentalhealth difficulties & #suicide is the leading cause of death for 16-24 year olds. So in March I will swim 20km to raise money for young people with mental health issues. Please sponsor me: lapsforlife.com.au/fundraise…

Five major #climate reports this week. With so much going on globally not all will be reported.
So will be summarising as they come out:
@UNFCCC synthesis report
@WMO greenhouse gas bulletin
@UNEP emissions gap report
@climateactiontr State of the climate
@TheLancet countdown
