Article Synopsis
- * The study identified the challenges posed by climate change to Tanzania's artisanal fishing, marine protected areas, and seaweed farming, emphasizing the need for careful marine spatial planning to enhance climate resilience.
- * By analyzing climate resilience and potential areas for growth over the next 20 to 40 years, the research suggests that effective strategies can help coastal communities adapt, create economic opportunities, and support biodiversity, but highlights the necessity of reducing global emissions to secure a sustainable future.
Small pelagic fisheries provide food security, livelihood support and economic stability for East African coastal communities-a region of least developed countries. Using remotely- sensed and field observations together with modelling, we address the biophysical drivers of this important resource. We show that annual variations of fisheries yield parallel those of chlorophyll-a (an index of phytoplankton biomass).
