Deep Dark Futures: Foresighting Human Impacts on Mesopelagic Ecosystem Services
This study uses foresighting to explore four plausible future scenarios of human activity affecting mesopelagic ecosystem services; provisioning, regulating, supporting and cultural. Using participatory scenario development, qualitative network modelling and indicator design, we assess systemic risks and early warning signals linked to harvest, climate
