Conclusion
There is uncertainty over where exactly particular fish stocks will congregate in the future, but as they are pushed north, they will likely move into the international waters of the central Arctic Ocean. There is further uncertainty over what fish species live in the central Arctic Ocean already, whether they may be of commercial interest, and how existing ecosystems would be affected by the migration of fish from waters to the south.
