The area off the California coast supports productive commercial and recreational fisheries such as squid, sardine, and lobster that are important to human cultures, economies, and livelihoods. Climate change is expected to alter the oceanic system and contribute to changes in fish populations that will directly affect fishers' profits and behavior, as well as managers' actions in setting limits on harvest. This collaborative Coastal SEES study brings together oceanographers, fisheries scientists, economists, and social scientists to develop a better understanding of interactions among the climate and coastal ocean system, fish populations, fishers and fishing communities, and resource management. The research team includes state and federal scientists, and results will be shared with the resource management community. The project will support interdisciplinary training for undergraduates, graduate students, and postdoctoral scientists, and the investigators will participate in a number of public outreach activities. This Coastal SEES project assembles a diverse team of oceanographers, fisheries scientists, economists, and social scientists to develop new, integrated understanding of climate effects on coastal fisheries. The investigators will examine how fishing behavior, income, jobs distribution, and livelihood viability will be altered by climate change. The focus is on three key commercially harvested species that are known to respond to environmental change: Pacific sardine, California market squid, and California spiny lobster. Each of these supports an economically important fishery and represents a different type of organism in terms of marine habitat, latitudinal range, and time scale of response. The approach will include global climate model projections, regional ocean modeling, fisheries modeling, economics modeling, plus studies of management scenarios and fisher behavior. The goal will be to help develop sustainable management strategies under future climate scenarios given predicted ecological, social, and economic outcomes for these three fisheries.

加利福尼亚海岸附近的区域支持鱿鱼，沙丁鱼和龙虾等生产性商业和休闲渔业，对人类文化，经济和生计很重要。预计气候变化将改变海洋系统，并导致将直接影响渔民利润和行为的鱼类种群的变化，以及经理在设定收获限制方面的行动。这种合作的沿海地区认为，研究汇集了海洋学家，渔业科学家，经济学家和社会科学家，以更好地了解气候和沿海海洋系统之间的相互作用，鱼类种群，渔民和捕鱼社区以及资源管理。研究小组包括州和联邦科学家，结果将与资源管理社区共享。该项目将支持本科生，研究生和博士后科学家的跨学科培训，研究人员将参加许多公共外展活动。该沿海地区看到项目组成了一支多样化的海洋学家，渔业科学家，经济学家和社会科学家，以对气候对沿海渔业的影响有了新的综合了解。调查人员将研究捕鱼行为，收入，就业分配和生存能力如何因气候变化而改变。重点是已知对环境变化做出反应的三个主要商业收获物种：太平洋沙丁鱼，加利福尼亚市场鱿鱼和加利福尼亚刺龙虾。这些中的每一个都支持经济上重要的渔业，并在海洋栖息地，纬度范围和反应时间尺度上代表了不同类型的生物。该方法将包括全球气候模型预测，区域海洋建模，渔业建模，经济学建模以及对管理场景和渔民行为的研究。目标是在未来的气候场景下帮助制定可持续的管理策略，而这三个渔业预测了生态，社会和经济成果。
