Abstract

Climate change poses a threat to the sustainability of fisheries. The impacts are likely to reduce the abundance and thereby income to the fishers. The impact of climate change on fisheries can be reduced by undertaking several adaptation measures by addressing $he issue at two levels: (i)improving the resilience of fish populations by adopting effective fisheries management measures and (ii) improving the resilience of fishing communities by adopting effective livelihood and life protection measures. The adaptations can occur by (i) improving fisheries management; (ii) increasing resilience of communities, and (iii) adapting long-tern plans.
