los angeles , california -lrb- cnn -rrb- -- natalie cole 's search for a new kidney ended this week when someone with a compatible organ died and their family asked that it be given to the singer , according to the organ procurement group that handled the donation . natalie cole received a kidney transplant tuesday in los angeles . cole , who underwent a successful kidney transplant at cedars-sinai medical center in los angeles tuesday , was `` responding well and recuperating '' thursday , her publicist said . cole had been on what she called `` a very long list '' of people waiting for an organ donation when she got word recently that onelegacy , an organ procurement agency in southern california , had a kidney that was a biological match . it was a `` directed donation '' from a deceased organ donor , according to onelegacy ceo tom mone . `` having heard of ms. cole 's need for a kidney , the family asked that one of their loved one 's kidneys be transplanted to ms. cole if they were a match , '' mone said . directed organ donations are rare , and rarer still are those directed to someone not related to or known personally by the deceased , he said . the donor will remain anonymous until the family gives permission for the name to be made public , he said . it may be a british staple but the traditional fish and chips is in peril . as waters around the uk get warmer , popular species of fish including haddock , plaice and lemon sole could become less common as they migrate to more preferable water temperatures . and this could see the prices of these fish soar , or see them being taken off the menu completely . researchers have developed a model that combined long-term fisheries data with climate model projections from the met office . from this they predicted the abundance and distribution of popular fish , such as haddock and plaice , could fall as the north sea warms and this could increase the price of fish and chips . in the past 40 years , reports suggest the north sea has warmed four times faster than the global average . and with further warming predicted over the coming century , fisheries and scientists are studying the impact on so-called commercial species . this includes research by dr steve simpson , senior lecturer in marine biology and global change at the university of exeter and dr martin genner , senior lecturer in fish ecology and evolution at the university of bristol . the researchers developed a model that combined long-term fisheries data with climate model projections from the met office . from this they were able to predict the abundance and distribution of the uk 's fish over the next 50 years . as the north sea warms , species wo n't be able to migrate north to avoid warming temperatures because habitat of a suitable depth is rare . as a result uk fisheries will need to replace current species with those that prefer warmer water such as red mullet -lrb- left -rrb- and john dory -lrb- right -rrb- , for example . their research found that as the north sea warms , species wo n't be able to migrate north to avoid warming temperatures because habitat of a suitable depth is rare . and due to higher temperatures , numbers of many of the species are predicted to fall . marine biologists have found that shellfish take on a sour flavour if they are reared in slightly acidified sea water . they warn that as the planet 's oceans grow more acidic , due to rising carbon dioxide levels , many of our favourite seafoods could become less appetising . climate change experts predict that over the next century , the acidity levels of the world 's oceans could drop from ph8 to ph7 .5 . cole 's need for a kidney donation was highly publicized , including with an appearance on cnn 's `` larry king live '' on march 31 . `` i 'm on a very long list , which is why we are looking to donors , '' said cole , the daughter of legendary crooner nat king cole . cole said her kidney troubles date to february 2008 when she was diagnosed with hepatitis c. cole said she attributes the hepatitis c to her well-publicized struggles to stop using cocaine and heroin . cole said she has been sober for some time now after two stints in a rehabilitation clinic . cole said she underwent chemotherapy in an aggressive way to fight the virus . within four months of getting chemotherapy , both of cole 's kidneys failed . `` i could n't breathe . i -- i went into -- literally , my kidneys stopped functioning . they stopped , you know , processing the fluid that was starting to build up in my body . '' since then cole has been on dialysis three days a week and has been searching for a kidney , she told king in one of the first public interviews about the issue . cole won six grammys for her 1991 critically acclaimed album `` unforgettable : with love , '' a jazzy tribute to her father . she won a grammy this year for her new album `` still unforgettable '' and another grammy for her work on another album . cole was still able to tour this year even with her kidney ailment . she canceled a planned show last week in south korea because of her illness , which meant she was in los angeles when the organ became available . `` i have been on dialysis in istanbul , milan , indonesia , manila , london . it 's -- it 's amazing , '' cole said . during king 's show , dozens of people sent e-mails to cnn telling cole that they would get tested to see if their kidney could be donated . king handed a thick stack of paper to cole . many have warned this could lead to shrimps and prawns struggling to build the shells and skeletons they need to survive . ` we will see a real changing of the guard in the next few decades , ' said dr simpson . ` our models predict cold water species will be squeezed out , with warmer water fish likely to take their place . ` for sustainable uk fisheries , we need to move on from haddock and chips and look to southern europe for our gastronomic inspiration .
