Abstract
First paragraph:
KEY FACTS
What is happening
¡ñ In the UK, there have been no major changes to the types or
locations of species farmed due to climate change.
¡ñ At salmon farms, a link between milder winter temperatures, disease
and increased fish mortality has been identified and marine
heatwaves can contribute to mass mortality events.
¡ñ In Scotland, some shellfish areas have experienced poor spat
settlement and mortality, but the link to climate change is not fully
established.
