are especially dangerous for these fish because warming makes their open-water habitats less suitable, scientists who study the species said. Loss of habitat could largely remove some of the most important predators — and some of the most commercially important seafood species — from the ocean.in Massachusetts, predicts that some large species could lose 70% of their habitat by 2100.
The heating of the world's oceans is a longstanding focus of climate scientists, and warming has accelerated this year. Earlier this year, the global average ocean sea surface temperature jumped two-tenths of a degree Celsius in a period of a few weeks, surprising even scientists who have grown accustomed to surging temperatures.in recorded history in July.
The U.S. catch of swordfish was worth about $23 million at the docks in 2022 and many millions more at supermarkets, restaurants and seafood counters. Albacore tuna fetched more than $36 million at the docks. The impact of warming waters on fish is complex, and the subject of much scientific research. A studyin August found marine heat waves “are not a dominant driver of change” in some species that live near the ocean bottom. The study shows that negative impacts of marine heat waves can be unpredictable, its authors said.
