Book (series)ProceedingsProceedings of the EIFAAC symposium on inland fisheries and aquaculture: advances in technology, stock assessment and citizen science in an era of climate change
Killarney, Ireland, 20–21 June 2022
2023Also available in:
No results found.The international symposium on “Inland Fisheries and aquaculture: advances in technology, stock assessment and citizen science in an era of climate change” was organized in conjunction with the thirty-first session of the European Inland Fisheries and Aquaculture Advisory Commission in Killarney, Ireland on 20–21 June 2022. The symposium was organized by Inland Fisheries Ireland and the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications. The symposium was attended by 105 participants from 14 countries. The main documentation comprised six invited papers and 35 experience papers and 15 posters. The symposium had five major themes, which were: (i) Inland fish stock assessment, (ii) Developments in freshwater fish monitoring technologies with an emphasis on non-destructive methods, (iii) The problems and challenges of climate change and its impacts on inland aquatic resources and fisheries, (iv) Citizen science, and (v) Aquaculture - traditional freshwater systems vs recirculation systems. The symposium provided valuable networking opportunities for the participating scientists, especially young scientists could share their research findings. Many promising studies and innovative technologies and methodologies were presented. This Occasional Paper in conjunction with a special issue of Fisheries Management and Ecology represents the proceedings of the symposium. The thirty-first session of EIFAAC, held in Killarney from 22 to 24 June 2022, discussed and endorsed the conclusions and recommendations from the symposium. -

Book (series)ProceedingsProceedings of the EIFAAC workshop on the problems and challenges of climate change, and its impact on inland aquatic resources and fisheries of Europe
Rome, Italy, 8 April 2025
2025Also available in:
No results found.The EIFAAC workshop on the problems and challenges of climate change, and its impact on inland aquatic resources and fisheries of Europe was held virtually on 8 April 2025. It was organized by the EIFAAC Secretariat and Inland Fisheries Ireland. The workshop was attended by 119 participants from 23 countries.The workshop brought together leading researchers with the aim to examine how climate change is impacting inland aquatic systems and fisheries. Across three thematic sessions, experts explored the ecological impacts, monitoring tools, and adaptation strategies for freshwater systems. Session 1 (From rivers to lakes) highlighted how hydrological extremes and shifting lake thermal regimes disrupt habitats and fish ecology. Session 2 (Climate change and conservation) focused on emerging tools like acoustic telemetry and thermal habitat models to track fish responses at individual and ecosystem levels. Session 3 (Region specific fisheries adaptation) showcased evidence-based approaches, including Ireland’s national warm water protocol. Collectively, the sessions outlined that adaptation must go beyond ecological vulnerability to include socio-economic resilience. Futureproofing of inland fisheries will require coordinated monitoring, cross-sector collaboration, and inclusive policy design. A core message emerged: climate adaptation must extend beyond vulnerability assessments to include ecological functions, socio-economic values, and adaptive capacity across multiple scales.
