dc.description.abstractSpatial and temporal distribution of European eel (Anguilla anguilla) during 1967-2020 was used to model European eel distribution in response to climate variability. Modeling integrated predictions from two distinct models for inferences. First, modeling of the relationship between temperature and precipitation and European eel catch values using multiple time-series regression analyses showed that climate variables contributed to eel distribution in T & uuml;rkiye. Eel catch became restricted to western and southern coasts of T & uuml;rkiye and total catch decreased between 1967 and 2020. From 1967 to 2020, favorable climatic conditions for European eels in T & uuml;rkiye were characterized by moderate temperatures. Furthermore, projections for 2050 and 2070 suggested that suitable habitat would be lost in T & uuml;rkiye. Our findings underscore the urgent need for immediate and widespread implementation of effective conservation policies to mitigate threats to European eel in T & uuml;rkiye and globally.
