Warming UK waters are causing a major redistribution of marine species, with some benefiting significantly from the change.
Sharks, rays, and native oysters, previously threatened, could expand their ranges into new, suitable habitats in the North Sea.
Conversely, less mobile species, like certain clams, face challenges adapting to the altered environmental conditions.
Although some species may thrive, careful management of marine areas is crucial to mitigate other threats and ensure their long-term survival.
