                         climatic variability on the monthly catching of the Sardinella 
                         brasiliensis, in the Southeast Brazilian Bight (SBB) between 1990 
                         and 2014. Remote Sensing data was used to obtain time series of 
                         Sea Surface Temperature and Chlorophyll a anomalies. In order to 
                         evaluate the relationship between these variables the methods of 
                         wavelets, cross-wavelets and cross-correlation were applied. The 
                         results show that the SSTA positive values are related to a 
                         decrease in catching sardines, while negative values of SSTA that 
                         are associated with increased production. We note that in the 
                         study area the observed SSTA are predominantly positive from the 
                         year 2000 and may be influenced to reduce the amount of sardines 
                         landed. The maximum and minimum values of SSTA occurred mainly at 
                         the time of recruitment to the adult stock or the beginning of the 
                         spawning season of the Brazilian sardine. The cross-correlation 
                         between the production of sardines and the concentration of 
                         chlorophyll a showed two peaks, one at 7 and another 3.5 years. 
                         The peak years of the chlorophyll concentration to, for example, 
                         2007, the production of sardine will be greater with a lag 1.5 to 
                         2 years. Factors such as SST, wind, Ekman transport and 
                         oncentration of chlorophyll a govern the abundance and 
                         distribution of the Brazilian sardine, as they determine the 
                         amount of food that will ensure successful reproduction and 
                         recruitment of this species. All aspects should be considered for 
                         obtaining a coherent and sustainable fishing policy.",
