TL;DR: In this article, the authors review evidence for the responses of marine life to recent climate change across ocean regions, from tropical seas to polar oceans, and find that general trends in species responses are consistent with expectations from climate change, including poleward and deeper distributional shifts, advances in spring phenology, declines in calcification and increases in the abundance of warm water species.

TL;DR: Using the velocity of climate change to derive spatial trajectories for climatic niches from 1960 to 2009 and from 2006 to 2100 is used to infer changes in species distributions and gives global and regional maps of the expected direction and rate of shifts of climate migrants, and suggests areas of potential loss of species richness.

TL;DR: Ocean warming will cause widespread changes in species richness and assemblage composition over coming decades, with important implications for both conservation management and international ocean governance as mentioned in this paper, and this is a major concern.

TL;DR: How improvements in fishery management can offset the negative consequences of climate change is found to hinge on the current status of stocks, and reforming fisheries in ways that jointly fix current inefficiencies, adapt to fisheries productivity changes, and proactively create effective transboundary institutions could lead to a future with higher profits and yields.

TL;DR: Widespread increases in sediment loading to lakes have, therefore, profound implications for the conservation and management of global aquatic biological diversity.
