Hace 1 día · The June 2023 marine heatwave over the northwest shelf of Europe developed rapidly with weak winds, ... Wernberg, T. et al. Climate-driven regime shift of a temperate marine ecosystem.
Hace 3 días · One of the most visible consequences of climate change, specifically global warming, on the ocean is rising sea levels. Global warming causes rising sea levels in two main ways. First, as temperatures increase, ice sheets and glaciers melt, adding more water to the oceans. Second, as seawater warms, it expands, creating a higher volume of water ...
Hace 1 día · Marine heatwaves (MHWs) are extreme ocean events with prolonged discrete periods of anomalously warm water, that have significant impacts on fisheries, tourism, and marine ecosystems. We identify MHWs as discrete periods (≥ 5 days) when the sea surface temperature exceeds the threshold (90th percentile) of the sea surface temperature distribution for specific calendar days and analyze their ...
Hace 2 días · Associated with these changes is an increasingly poleward transport of heat along the shelf, leading to more frequent and intense marine heatwaves that disrupt coastal ecosystems and provide a pathway for “tropicalization” of these environments through larval transport and settlement (Vergés et al., 2014).
Hace 4 días · Like many other ecosystems, underwater forests are at risk. ... In Western Australia, a severe marine heatwave struck in 2011, wiping out kelp forests along 100 km of coastline.
Hace 21 horas · Excess heat also compromises water and food resources and threatens both terrestrial and marine ecosystems. Recent marine heatwaves and near-record ocean temperatures. The relentless rise of ocean temperatures has taken a toll on coral reefs around the world, leading to the fourth global coral bleaching event in history , already the second this decade.
Hace 3 días · According to Kotta, the heatwave that began last week brought such a dramatic change in temperature that it exceeded the tolerance limit even of the Baltic Sea's biota. This could be quite devastating. Keep in mind that the sea typically exhibits greater inertivity than the air, resulting in lower temperature amplitudes.
