Sendai Symposium B1_6253 2010.04.27 Climate-driven ecosystem shifts indicated in fishery catch statistics (1968- 2009) from Korean coastal waters Sukgeun Jung, Young Shil Kang, Young-Sang Suh, Sukyung Kang and Yeong Gong Catch of blue crab (Portunus trituberculatus) in South Korea, averaged for 1983-2007 40 North Korea 110 38 100 South Korea 90 80 70 36 60 50 Current major 40 30 fishing34 ground of 20 10 blue crab 9 8 32 7 6 5 4 3 30 2 1 0.1 0.01 28 0.001 0 kg km-2 26 122 124 126 128 130 132 134 136 138 “According to NFRDI, in 2030, South Korean fishermen may not catch blue crab any more, as global warming will shift its major fishing ground to North Korean water.” Outline of talk 1. Long-term changes in Korean waters 1) Hydrographic conditions, 1968- 2) Fish community (commercial catch), 1968- 3) Zooplankton community, 1978- 4) Correlations with respect to climate and Tsushima Warm Current 2.
