First records of unusual marine fish distributions—can they predict climate changes?
Open accessAbstract
Global climate change is impacting the ecology and biogeography of marine fish populations and will continue to do so in the future. Here, I review recent records of unusual marine fish distributions from different regions of the world, and discuss the relevance of such observations to climate changes. In conclusion, I suggest that first records of fish in unusual habitats may aid as an indicator of climate changes, provided each record is critically assessed and combined with recent records of fish population parameters, population dynamics, marine habitat assessments and abiotic data such as sea bottom, middle and surface temperatures.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
