SPECIALTY: Climatologia
SUMMARY:

Artisanal fishing is widely recognized as a significant source of employment and income for coastal communities throughout Brazil, with the Northeast region accounting for 65% of individuals involved in this activity, making it the Brazilian region with the highest percentage of artisanal fishers. The literature acknowledges that the effects of climate change impact ocean temperatures, which subsequently trigger a series of negative effects on fish stocks. In this context, the study aims to understand how physical aspects of the atmosphere and ocean influence the flying fish fishery activity along the northern coast of Rio Grande do Norte. To achieve the results, the following materials will be used: fishery production data from the Fishery Landings Monitoring Program (PMDP) and the Fishery Spatialization Project (PEP), remote orbital sensing products such as sea surface temperature data from the AVHRR Pathfinder Version 5.3 Sea Surface NOAA, chlorophyll-a concentration data (mg/m³) from the Ocean Color SMI: Standard Mapped Image MODIS Aqua Data product, derived from MODIS sensor data; air temperature, wind speed, and specific humidity data from the NOAA CDR: Ocean Near-Surface Atmospheric dataset. The methodology will be based on time series analysis, temporal anomaly analysis, the use of the Oceanic Niño Index (ONI), significance testing using the Student's t-test, multiple linear regression techniques between physical and fishing parameters, and interviews with community members to help understand the dynamics of the localities.
