Abstract
The following paper outlines the major potential Greenhouse effects on the fish and fisheries resources of inland, coastal and nearshore waters in New South Wales, based on climatic scenarios derived from the CSIRO predictions. For this exercise NSW has been divided into a number of zones to describe variations, as have the coastal river catchments, the estuarine and enclosed coastal waters and the coastal territorial seas. Much of the information summarized in this paper have been collated fromt hose other papers in this volume (plus see references therein) which originated from a seminar held at the Fisheries Research Institute in May 1989 on Greenhouse Impacts on Fisheries in NSW
