1. Demersal finfishes 2. Nearshore pelagics
3. Targeted invertebrates 4. Shallow sub tidal and intertidal invertebrates

Redistribution of potential fisheries catch
By 2050, potential fisheries catches will decline by ~40% in the tropical Pacific if species are free to move poleward with increasing temperatures (Cheung et al. 2010)

7th SPC HOF meeting Effects of climate change on coastal fisheries
Coastal fisheries are sensitive to changes in
- habitat quality and quantity
- sea surface temperature
- seawater chemistry (pH)
- ocean currents and nutrient availability
Up until 2035 effects of climate change may be difficult to distinguish from sustained exploitation and habitat degradation
Effective local management will greatly reduce longer-term impacts of climate change on coastal fisheries

7th SPC HOF meeting Adaptation and management recommendations
Reverse or reduce local anthropogenic impacts that reduce the structural complexity and biological diversity of critical coastal habitats.
Keep production of demersal finfish and invertebrates within sustainable limits; rebuilding populations of over-exploited species
Diversify fishing activities (and livelihoods) to reduce reliance on fisheries species that are highly vulnerable to climate change
