Climate change adaptation in aquaculture2020 •
This study conducts the first systematic literature review of climate change adaptation in aquaculture. We address three specific questions: (i) What is aquaculture adapting to? (ii) How is aquaculture adapting? and (iii) What research gaps need to be addressed? We identify, characterise and examine case studies published between 1990 and 2018 that lie at the intersection of the domains of climate change, adaptation and aquaculture. The main areas of documented climate change impacts relate to extreme events and the general impacts of climate change on the aquaculture sector. Three categories of adaptation to climate change are identified: coping mechanisms at the local level (e.g. water quality management techniques), multilevel adaptive strategies (e.g. changing culture practices) and management approaches (e.g. adaptation planning, community-based adaptation). We identify four potential areas for future research: research on inland aquaculture adaptation; studies at the household level; whether different groups of aquaculture farmers (e.g. indigenous people) face and adapt differently to climate change; and the use of GIS and remote sensing as cost-effective tools for developing adaptation strategies and responses. The study brings essential practical and theoretical insights to the aquaculture industry as well as to climate change adaptation research across the globe.
Countries and communities will have to adapt to climate change uncertainty, complexity and risks in fisheries and aquaculture management, governance, markets and livelihoods. Adaptation is a “process of adjustment in ecological, social, or economic systems to actual or expected climate and its effects”, which includes actions that moderate, avoid harm or exploit beneficial opportunities. Different types of adaptation tools have been developed. However, there is minimal guidance available specifically aimed at developing adaptation strategies for the fisheries and aquaculture sector. This chapter aims to contribute to filling this gap by providing a portfolio of climate adaptation tools and methods recommended and currently available to governments, industries and individual fishers and fish farmers.

Sustainability of fisheries and aquaculture in context of emerging climate change issues2017 •
At present the global milieu is extremely susceptible to the effects of climate change typically the fisheries sector owing to its economics, diets and social dependencies on fisheries and climate change is exerting an extra pressure over the many folds (fishing pressure, loss of habitat, pollution, disturbance and introduced species) and the fish stocks all over the world have already experienced the adversities. Besides, temperature rise, amplified irregularities in the rainfall pattern and frequency and harshness of life-threatening occurrences, upsurges of precipitation, tremendous flooding and salinity intrusions may have an undesirable impact on aquatic biota as well as fish. The utmost imperative effects of climate change in fisheries sector are – destruction of habitat, alteration of habitat conditions, disease outburst, obstacle in migration routes, hindrance in reproduction and finally reduced production. In Bangladesh climate changes also distresses the Sundarbans, the wo...
