Description
This report presents the outcomes of the Ecological Risk Assessment of Impacts of Climate Change on Fisheries and Aquaculture Resources workshop held from 25-27 October 2017 in Lima, Peru.
The workshop aimed to:
- To raise awareness through objective, flexible and cost-effective ecological risk assessment tools that will be used to prioritize future research and management investment for developing adaptation responses to climate change.
- Socialize participants’ local experience with different specialist and non-specialist stakeholders in the Asia-Pacific region, benefiting researchers of public, private and academic entities.
- Increase knowledge about environmental parameters that determine potential impacts of climate change, and about life-history stages, habitats, fisheries and aquaculture resources that are more vulnerable to climate change.
