Figure 22: (a) Current (early 2000s) and (b) cli- mate-shifted distributions of the small yellow croaker Larimichthys polyactis ( Sciaenidae ). The climate-shifted distribution was predicted by a dynamic bioclimate envelope model described by Cheung et al. (2008), under a hypothetical increase in average global ocean temperature of 2.5°C. Boundaries of Exclusive Economic Zones are delineated by the dashed lines.
