Diana Madeira: Impact of climate change on fish
In the last century the Earth's atmosphere became 0.74°C warmer. This value that seems rather negligible will bring negative consequences for the future. Today we will look into the impact climate change has on fish. To this end we interviewed Diana Madeira, a researcher at the University of Lisbon studying the stress response of fish when they are exposed to conditions expected in a climate change scenario, such as rising temperatures and pH reduction of seawater, or its acidification. This study is elaborated in physiological terms, in order to understand whether the fish can adapt to these changes or not.
