Fig. 3: Range and biomass change.

From: Future trends of marine fish biomass distributions from the North Sea to the Barents Sea

Fig. 3

Projected rate of change in A species’ geographic range change, B species’ biomass, C species’ core range, and D species’ core biomass, at each socioeconomic pathway between 2010 and 2100. Boxplots are a standardized way of displaying the distribution of the data by showing the median percentage change of all species (black line) while box limits correspond to the interquantile range (IQR). Whiskers correspond to maximum and minimum values, calculated as Q3 + 1.5xIQR and Q1 – 1.5xIQR, and points correspond to outliers. Asteriscs indicate signifiant difference from 0 (Two sided Wilcoxon rank test, p < 0.05, see Source Data for individual test results). Biomass units are in catch per unit effort (CPUE fish/min).
