How do rising sea temperatures affect fish populations and the spread of invasive species in the Mediterranean?

Rising temperatures affect phytoplankton, the base of the marine food chain, causing shifts to smaller species and reduced biomass. This impacts fish populations, leading to decreased catches and altered distribution, with projections showing a 2.8%-12.1% reduction in potential fishing production by 2050. Simultaneously, warmer waters facilitate the spread of invasive species, further disrupting the ecosystem.

How did the Blob's effects ripple through the marine food web, and what were the long-term consequences?

The Blob caused a reorganization of the ocean food web. Smaller, less nutritious plankton replaced larger ones, impacting fish populations. Kelp forests were decimated by a combination of high temperatures and sea urchin overgrazing due to the loss of predatory sea stars. These changes had cascading effects, leading to long-term ecosystem shifts.

How does this year's water discharge plan compare to previous years, and what are the potential risks or uncertainties associated with this approach?

The success of this strategy hinges on the timely filling of the Kuibyshev reservoir. Earlier implementation of the special discharge plan is contingent upon reaching the normal headwater level in the Kuibyshev reservoir. The duration of the high-water period ("fish shelf") remains uncertain, depending on April and May's hydrological conditions and the water needs of agriculture and fisheries.
