摘要

The Tropical Eastern Pacific Marine Conservation Corridor (CMAR) was established in 2004 through the cooperation of Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, and Panama with the objective of safeguarding the migratory routes of large pelagic species such as sharks, rays, turtles, and marine mammals. As climate change modifies marine ecosystems worldwide, CMAR's recent ambitious conservation efforts might be affected by climate-driven species range shifts towards the Humboldt current. Here, we aim to identify possible adaptation and management strategies to enhance the climate resilience of biodiversity and fisheries in ten marine protected areas (MPA) of the CMAR region. We rely on scenario building and spatially-explicit integrated climate-fish-fisheries models to project the impacts of climate change on marine biomass of key marine species under different fisheries management and marine protection scenarios. Our results show that biomass in the CMAR region, and the effectiveness of MPAs in supporting biomass conservation, seafood production and sustainable tourism, are strongly impacted by higher-emission scenarios. Improving fisheries management and conservation could offset some of the impacts of climate change, especially if these are done in parallel. Adapting fisheries and MPA management plans within the CMAR region to climate-driven range shifts is essential to achieve their established conservation objectives. Improving our understanding of climate change impacts on marine biodiversity and biomass of key species of commercial importance can enhance the effectiveness of conservation and fishery management plans in building climate resilience of ecosystems in the region.
