Marine heatwaves and decreased light availability interact to erode the ecophysiological performance of habitat‐forming kelp species
Coastal marine ecosystems are threatened by a range of anthropogenic stressors, operating
at global, local, and temporal scales. We investigated the impact of marine heatwaves …
