As global warming becomes more of an issue, marine ecosystems worldwide have shown an increased dominance of warm water species, along with parallel changes in the species composition of fish catches since the 1970s according to a report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change<\/a> (IPCC).<\/p>\n \u201cFisheries from marine ecosystems provide food, nutrition, income and livelihoods for millions of people around the world,\u201d explained the IPCC. \u201cGlobally, total fish catches amount to 80<\/span> to<\/span>105 million tonnes annually, generating over <\/span>$80<\/span>bn<\/span> in revenue.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cFish show gregarious behaviour and cluster in shoals which helps them to acquire food and protects them against predators,\u201d said Ivan Nagelkerken, author of the study and professor at the University of Adelaide\u2019s Environment Institute and Southern Seas Ecology Laboratories.<\/p>\n
