Project description
How much fish will there be in the future oceans? And how much of these fish can be harvested by fisheries? This project will investigate what types of fish growth strategies are successful across various marine regions and how this may change in the coming decades. We will do this by integrating observational data of fish growth, morphology, and physiology with mathematical models to simulate potential future trends. The grant will fund the recipient, one Ph.D. student, and one postdoc.
