Study Reveals How Five Tuna Species Respond to Changing Mediterranean Conditions

A new study by researchers from the Institute of Oceanology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IOCAS) investigated how five tuna species may respond to changing Mediterranean conditions. The findings suggest that while the Mediterranean Sea is warming, improved temperature conditions do not necessarily make it more environmentally accessible to all tuna species, with factors like high salinity and changes in upper-ocean mixing continuing to limit their potential use of the basin.
