A 巨大(な), 100-続けざまに猛撃する 'moonfish' was 設立する dead on a beach in Seaside, Oregon last week, which 専門家s say could shed light on the extent of 気候 change.

The moonfish, also known as the opah, was three-and-a-half feet long and is typically 設立する in 熱帯の and temperate waters, but as oceans warm because of 気候 change, 海洋 life is 長,率いるing north to escape cooler waters.

These fish can grow up to six feet long, but Heidi Dewar, a 研究 biologist with 国家の 大洋の and Atmospheric 行政 (NOAA) 漁業s, told the Washington 地位,任命する: ‘I wouldn’t 推定する/予想する an opah that size to 普通は be off Oregon.’

Along with 供給するing insight into 気候 change, 野性生物 公式の/役人s hope to use the fish to learn about the basic biology and 生態学 of opah, which is still a mystery to the 科学の community 予定 to a 欠如(する) of 研究.

Dewar told the Washington 地位,任命する that the fish will be frozen and dissected by students to 暴露する it secrets.

However, the fish have been 設立する in Oregon before ? in 2009, a 97-続けざまに猛撃する opah was caught was caught 37 miles off of the Columbia River Mouth.

The Seaside Aquarium shared the announcement in a Facebook post, which notes it is very rare to see an opah this large so far up north

The findings show that rising 気温s are making 熱帯の 地域s unbearable for native 種類, but these creatures are relocating to subtropical waters, or even toward the 政治家s, which are also warming.

上級の author 示す Costello, a professor of 海洋 biology at the University of Auckland, told AFP: '全世界の warming has been changing life in the ocean for at least 60 years.'

Our findings show a 減少(する) of about 1,500 種類 at the 赤道.
