Impact of NAO on Mediterranean Fisheries
12 pages, 4 figures, 2 tables The effect of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) on fisheries production has received attention in the last 2 decades, especially in relation to the inter annual fluctuation of the important North Atlantic cod fisheries. Results of these studies show that the effects...
