The paths of larvae released at 10 meters are shown in green, while the paths of larvae released at 40 meters are shown in purple. Bethymetry is rendered as a grey surface. The viewpoint looks to the north toward Prince William Sound.
Climate change affects many aspects of life on Earth.
Biological processes are tightly linked to an intricate ecosystem, allowing changes in climate to affect even the smallest fish in the ocean. Climate change and fishing are just two of these. We're looking at how the changing climate affects commercially important fish. Hermann and his fellow researchers are using several types of models in order to limit the number of unknowns in their research. These models include information on ocean circulation, temperature, salinity, predators, prey and the fish themselves.
