Number of fishers adaptations with increasing single hazard exposure

Using a systematic review approach, we identified a global dataset of 301 reported adaptation responses of small-scale fishers to climate change. Here we calculated the number of the different types of fishers’ responses inside each of the corresponding climate change hazard exposure levels (i.e. percentiles) from four selected hazards: sea surface temperature rate of change, accumulated intensity of marine heatwaves, sea level rise of sea surges, and frequency of tropical storms. The magnitude of exposure was calculated using the following percentiles: 25th percentile (low exposure), 50th (medium), 75th (high), and 90th (hotspot)
