Because of human action, the Earth has entered an era where profound changes in the
global environment are creating novel conditions that will be discernable far into the future …

Intraspecific variation in key traits such as tolerance of warming can have profound effects
on ecological and evolutionary processes, notably responses to climate change. The …

Extreme climatic events including marine heatwaves (MHWs) are becoming more frequent
and severe in the Anthropocene. However, our understanding of how these events affect …

Many species face extinction risks owing to climate change, and there is an urgent need to
identify which species' populations will be most vulnerable. Plasticity in heat tolerance …

Globally, anomalously warm temperature events have increased by 34% in frequency and
17% in duration from 1925 to 2016 with potentially major impacts on coastal ecosystems …

The response of Posidonia oceanica meadows to global warming of the Eastern
Mediterranean Sea, where the increase in sea surface temperature (SST) is particularly …

Characterising ocean temperature variability and extremes is fundamental for understanding
the thermal bounds in which marine ecosystems have adapted. While there is growing …

Marine heatwaves (MHWs), discrete but prolonged periods of anomalously warm seawater,
can fundamentally restructure marine communities and ecosystems. Although our …

Local and global changes associated with anthropogenic activities are impacting marine
and terrestrial ecosystems. Macroalgae, especially habitat-forming species like kelp, play …

Elucidating the physiological mechanisms that underlie thermal stress and discovering how
species differ in capacities for phenotypic acclimatization and evolutionary adaptation to this …
