Environment Shapes Sardine Health: Local Factors Drive Decline in Some Populations
Sardine populations exhibit varied physiological health depending on their local environment, with warmer waters and lower phytoplankton linked to poorer conditions in some areas. This highlights how environmental factors critically influence sardine well-being, providing essential insights for predicting population responses and ensuring sustainable management of these important fish. Understanding these localized impacts is key to addressing declines in marine resources.
