What can climate data tell us about future skipjack tuna catch?
Researchers compared LSTM, BiLSTM and CNN-BiLSTM models using more than 60 years of global catch and climate data.
The CNN-BiLSTM model delivered the strongest prediction performance (R² = 0.864).

Efforts to address Lake Whitefish population crashes in the #GreatLakes are growing. We need more capacity and resources, but the ball is gaining momentum. Kudos to @kellyhouse.bsky.social & @bridgemi.com for staying on top of this. #fisheries #PureMichigan #whitefish

Marine scientists warned today that NOAA Fisheries is taking a "sharp turn away from science," deprioritizing conservation & climate assessments to favor commercial fishing quotas and offshore development in warming oceans.

Hello Ladies & Gentlemen! In collaboration with our brilliant Social Media Volunteers, we created a series of informational graphics on sustainable fisheries. Today’s graphic focuses on overfishing.

Is it possible to overfish? The answer is yes, as abundant as the supply may seem, the overfishing of certain stocks of fish is very possible. Overfishing is defined as when too many of a certain type of fish is caught and there are not enough to breed and sustain the population. Overfishing is considered a global crisis which affects the fish on the market, but also can destabilize entire marine ecosystems.

Overfishing is caused by several factors, one being the rising human consumption due to the rising population. Climate change is also a major reason for overfishing as ocean temperatures increase, fish will migrate different routes instead of the traditional fishing grounds. Fisheries will then continue to catch at the same level even though there is not as many fish in that area. There is also an overcapacity of fishing vessels in the waters that are getting larger as the pressure to keep up with demand grows.

The impacts of overfishing are devastating if no action is taken to combat it. An estimated 36 million people are employed in the wild capture seafood sectors which means if the industry were to collapse, many people would lose their livelihoods. Overfishing can also affect biodiversity because many species of marine life rely on fish to survive, but it is also to be noted that overfishing can also cause accidental catching of other marine species such as sharks and turtles, known as bycatch. This is usually because of trawling, which is a popular way of catching fish which requires a large net that scrapes the bottom of the ocean in order to capture large groups of fish. In this method, other non-targets such as young fish and crustaceans are trapped and killed in the process.

Trawling & bycatch have become a central issue in #Alaska's US #Senate race. 74% of AK voters support a trawling ban, per a 2025 poll. Sen. Sullivan (R) and challenger Mary Peltola (D) both say they'll act — but disagree on how far. #Fisheries

She also shared the benefits of #fisheries #transparency for Cabo Verde: "First, we expect more informed and more timely management decisions, because both government and operators themselves now work from the same up-to-date data."
