New blog! UK fisheries have made significant progress towards meeting the UK’s #NetZero target, but what more can be done? With #ECCWO5 underway, @EngelhardGeorg discusses how technological, operational & policy changes can drive further progress ⛴️. ▶️bit.ly/3GXs7ex
Cefas and @UK_CEH have been supporting the @caymangovt to identify the most pressing marine climate risks facing the Cayman Island's biodiversity, society & economy 🌊. This new assessment will help inform future climate policy & increase resilience.

@CefasGovUK and its predecessor @thembauk Fisheries Laboratory are 120 years old. Dialled-in from leave to hear @johnkpinnegar's talk on our fisheries history and what a joy it was.
A few highlights [spoiler: we had women, timeseries matter, expertise matters]
🧵1/10
Working with SAF @CefasGovUK@UBC scientists develop new seafood risk tool to identify & reduce impact of chemical and pathogen hazards in aquaculture
new paper out now➡️rdcu.be/cHGUh#onehealthaquaculture
Climate change and aquaculture: new paper with widely applicable framework to assess the key risks doi.org/10.1016/j.crm.2022.1… Oman is expanding aquaculture but is in one of world's hottest regions. Identifying main risk factors is a necessity to plan targeted adaptation actions
Interesting stuff in a new paper from @k_maltby and colleagues work in Grenada! "Exploring fishers’ perceptions of index insurance and coral reef health in the context of climate-driven changes in extreme events" in @ICES_ASC Journal of Marine Science doi.org/10.1093/icesjms/fsac…
Today I'll be talking about how changes in storminess could lead to major disruption to the global fishing industry in the #COP26 ‘Space and Geospatial Virtual Pavilion’ (a session on ‘Ports and their role in the Blue Economy’)

We are excited to announce a call for abstracts for the Oceans Past conference to be held in Seattle, USA in June 2022! ECR funding available thanks to @ICES_ASC & @TheFSBI. Deadline for papers & funding requests 10 Dec 2021, see oceanspast.org/opix.php for details!

European fishing communities face their own specific climate risks: UK and Eastern Mediterranean have the highest climate change risks. A focus on sustainable and diverse fisheries management could help
