This rise in sea temperatures may be due to climate change. These changes are leading to a decline in shrimp-like crustaceans called copepods – a critical food source for fish, seabirds and even basking sharks.

This will have an impact on the types of fish available for commercial fishing, which could lead to new fishing practices and diets.
