Download AEBR 300 Climate effects on key fish and megafauna species of the New Zealand Subantarctic zone and adjacent regions of high productivity

This project sought to understand and model the effects of environmental variability on the function of the marine ecosystems of the Subantarctic region of New Zealand and adjacent waters, focusing on key megafauna and fished species using this region. We found evidence for long-term changes in atmospheric/oceanic climate, with differential effects on productivity comparing regions, and with associated effects on the productivity and distribution of some of the study species.
