Changes in populations and, subsequently, catches of marine fishes and invertebrates have always been of great concern, especially for species that are commercially important due to the revenue they bring in and their significance for food security. As climate change becomes more extreme and variable, synchronous patterns of both marine and terrestrial organisms have been observed globally. This is worrying because it indicates greater sensitivity of populations to both climate change and human-induced fishing, and the possibility of multiple populations crashing simultaneously. Hence, the ability to detect synchronous patterns among fished populations and to determine the underlying mechanisms is critical for effective fisheries management of these populations.
