Description

To sustainability manage North American fishes, understanding how climate change will impact, and is currently impacting, these ecologically, culturally, and economically valuable resources is a critical need. Because the effects of climate change on fisheries vary by ecoregion and interact with other anthropogenic stressors, synthesis of available information on the impacts of climate change on inland fishes at a continental scale is useful to their conservation and management
