24 years tracking mass mortality events and marine heatwaves: when observations overcome the worst scenarios [PDF]

The Mediterranean Sea is considered a climate change hotspot exhibiting warming rates and marine heatwaves (MHWs) events higher than in the global ocean.

Gulf Stream mesoscale variabilities drive bottom marine heatwaves in Northwest Atlantic continental margin methane seeps

Communications Earth & Environment
Methane hydrates on continental margins sequester substantial amounts of methane. Ocean warming often triggers hydrate dissociation, influencing global climate and marine ecosystems.

Recent Anomalously Warm Ocean Conditions and Changes in the Migration and Spawning Distribution of Chub Mackerel (Scomber japonicus) in the Western North Pacific

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extreme ocean warming has become increasingly pronounced in the western North Pacific in recent years. Coincident with this, both the egg abundance and the catch per unit effort (CPUE) of chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus) in fisheries targeting southward‐migrating adults have decreased.

Marine heatwaves bleach Dweep corals: CMFRI The Times of India dated 7th May 2024 [PDF]

In an alarming situation, the researchers of the ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) have recorded a widespread bleaching event impacting the coral reefs in the Lakshadweep Sea owing to marine heatwaves.

Satellites reveal different stories of marine heatwaves in the sea-ice-covered pan-Arctic

Communications Earth & Environment
Satellite observations provide valuable information on the rapidly increasing marine heatwaves over the Arctic Ocean, yet current assessments of these events lack reliability because the satellite-based temperature in ice-covered regions heavily relies ...

Under the cover of darkness: Foraging behaviour increases on cloudy, new moon nights in a pelagic seabird

Ibis, EarlyView.
While many visual predators feed exclusively during the day, others exploit foraging opportunities at night, although the efficiency with which they do so is strongly influenced by ambient light levels. We investigated the influence of variation in nocturnal light on the foraging behaviour of a small pelagic seabird, the European Storm‐petrel ...

Environmental and seasonal filtering of taxonomic, functional and phylogenetic diversity patterns of mountain butterflies in a prime butterfly area, Greece

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Forest clearings support butterfly communities comparable to mountainous grasslands in alpha‐diversity and conservation value, yet remain compositionally distinct. Generalized linear models (GLMs) showed three key habitat predictors shaping multifaceted diversity and community composition: herb/grass height, flowerhead abundance and elevation.

A global database on coral recovery following marine heatwaves

Scientific Data
Coral reefs support the world’s most diverse marine ecosystem and provide invaluable goods and services for millions of people worldwide. They are however experiencing frequent and intensive marine heatwaves that are causing coral bleaching and mortality.

Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture in a changing climate: Quantitative insights from industry records and climate projections

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Predicting and understanding the implications of climate change on Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture is a fundamental step to understanding risk and mitigating potential impacts. Here, we statistically downscale established climate models using satellite‐based sea surface temperature data and in situ industry measurements to inform ...

Giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) gametophytes grow endophytically in red macroalgae: Implications for kelp restoration

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) forests have declined by 95% in Australia since the 1970s due to climate change. Despite expanding restoration efforts, long‐term recovery is still lacking. Factors influencing recruitment by the microscopic gametophyte phase may represent a key mechanism underpinning the successful recovery and restoration of
