This book examines the consequences of climatic changes, the weather and man-made effects on the sea, its resources and fishing operations. It looks at the effects on distribution, resource size, availability of species of sea life and how fish behaviour changes. The effect of climatic fluctuations on fisheries is also reviewed and compared to past and present man-made effects and changes such as pollution, oil development, intensive fishing and changes in fishing patterns.
