Plankton declines raise concerns for global fisheries
Reports of declining plankton populations are raising alarm over the future of global fisheries. Plankton form the base of the marine food web, so sustained declines could reduce fish stocks and threaten food security and livelihoods in fishing communities worldwide. Industry and scientific observers are voicing concern, though the scale and pace of the decline remain disputed.
Why now: Plankton underpin ocean food webs, so declines have direct implications for fish stocks and food security.
