IPCC AR4
• Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concludesthat “there is very high confidence that the global average neteffect of human activities since 1750 has been one of warming”(http://www.ipcc.ch/graphics/gr-ar4-wg1.htm)
• Changes in climate are expected to have lasting impacts on theproperties of marine ecosystems, and the goods and servicesextracted from them.
• With a few exceptions, the IPCC AR4 assessment providesqualitative rather than quantitative predictions of impacts onmarine resources (Fischlin et al. 2007).

Reasons for QualitativePredictions
1. Inadequate representation of the interactive couplingbetween ecosystems and the climate system.
2. Limitations of climate envelope models used to projectresponses of individual species to climate change.
3. Interactions between climate change and changes inhuman use and management of ecosystems areuncertain.

Modelling approachesModelling approaches
• Statistical downscaling: IPCC scenarios downscaledto local regions and ecosystem indicatorsincorporated into stock projection models.
• Dynamical downscaling: IPCC scenariosdownscaled to local regions and coupled to bio-physical models with higher trophic level feedbacks.
• Fully coupled bio-physical models that operate attime and space scales relevant to coastal domains.

Framework for projecting impacts ofclimate change on fish and shellfish
• Identify mechanisms underlying production• Evaluate climate model scenarios and select
scenarios that appear to be valid for your region• Assess oceanographic implications of scenarios and
develop time series• Incorporate time trend in oceanography in forecasting
model for fish• Evaluate harvest strategy under changing ecosystem

Ensemble Model Projections forNorth Pacific Marine Ecosystems
• Initial Selection - Pick models that replicate theobserved character of the PDO in their 20th centuryhindcasts (12 of 22 pass test)
• Regional Perspective - Examine specificparameter(s) in region of interest; consider means,variances, seasonality, etc.
• Model projections - Use quasi-Bayesian methodbased on “distance” between hindcasts andobservations; form weighted ensemble means
• Uncertainty/Confidence - Estimate based on acombination of inter-model and intra-model variancesin projections

Rock sole recruitment forecast
• Hierarchical bootstrap.— Three climate conditions were characterized according to the range of
the ending longitude L expected for larval drift under each condition:A) onshelf drift, B) midshelf drift, and C) offshelf drift.
— For each projected year, the corresponding predicted mean driftlongitude and variance from the IPCC model results was used todraw a sample drift longitude from a normally-distributed population.
— The climate condition corresponding to the sample longitude wasidentified based on the limits for each springtime wind condition.
— A value for recruitment was randomly selected (with replacement)from the set of "observed" recruitments corresponding to the givenclimate condition.
— Repeat 20,000 times to generate bootstrap realizations for eachprojected year. For each year, the probability of occurrence for eachclimate condition was computed, as well as the mean and distributionof recruitment.

Flatfish Example Summary
• The simulations carried out for IPCC provide theopportunity to project Bering Sea winds for the nextfew decades.
• The magnitude of the projected change in the cross-shelf wind is comparable to the decadal variationsobserved in the 20th century.
• A ensemble climate forecast yields a modestincrease in the cross-shelf wind from 2000 to 2050.
• These shifts in climate conditions are projected to befavorable to rock sole recruitment but uncertaintyremains high.

Summary
Short term 2009:—Recruitment - mathematical representations of key
processes incorporating ecosystem indicators.—Incorporate expected demand and policy shifts.—Observe and predict and assess skill.
Medium term 2012:—Couple ocean circulation, prey production, fish production
and predation with spatial and temporal feedbacks(BSIERP). Aydin and Bond et al.

Empirical “Downscaling”Example: Summer StaticStability
• Concept—Analysis of IPCC model projections in parallel with
vertically-integrated model—Key parameter: Static stability - Sustained production
• Basis—Sea ice projections as proxy for summer bottom temps.—SLP patterns as proxy for wind mixing—Direct model forecasts for SST
• Result—Comparisons with ROMS/FEAST; uncertainty estimates
