Data from: Large benefits to marine fisheries of meeting the 1.5°C global warming target Cheung, William W. L.; Reygondeau, Gabriel; Froelicher, Thomas L.
Description
<b>Abstract</b><br/>Translating the Paris Agreement to limit global warming to 1.5°C above preindustrial level into impact-related targets facilitates communication of the benefits of mitigating climate change to policy-makers and stakeholders. Developing ecologically relevant impact-related targets for marine ecosystem services, such as fisheries, is an important step. Here, we use maximum catch potential and species turnover as climate-risk indicators for fisheries. We project that potential catches will decrease by more than 3 million metric tons per degree Celsius of warming. Species turnover is more than halved when warming is lowered from 3.5° to 1.5°C above the preindustrial level. Regionally, changes in maximum catch potential and species turnover vary across ecosystems, with the biggest risk reduction in the Indo-Pacific and Arctic regions when the Paris Agreement target is achieved.; <b>Usage notes</b><br /><div class="o-metadata__file-usage-entry"><h4 class="o-heading__level3-file-title">Data for fig. 1 - 4</h4><div class="o-metadata__file-description">These are the data used to plot figures 1 - 4 of the paper.</div><div class="o-metadata__file-name">Data.zip</br></div></div>
