Rising water temperatures could increase growth rates for some species, but may cause thermal stress for cold-water species and intertidal shellfish.

New species may be cultivated.

Temperature change will affect diseases of farmed species and thermal stress is likely to increase disease susceptibility.

Storm damage to farms may increase escapes and result in fewer suitable areas.

Occurrence of harmful algal and jellyfish blooms may change, leading to fish kills and closure of shellfish harvesting areas.
