Mr Mitchell Lennan1 1Strathclyde Centre For Environmental Law And Governance, Glasgow, United Kingdom This presentation showcases ongoing PhD reseach concerning the issue of fisheries redistribution under climate change. Scientific surveys and fisheries mathematical models tell us ocean warming and acidification is shifting the distribution of many fish species poleward, or into deeper waters. An issue…
