Temperate Australia is a global hotspot for marine biodiversity and its waters have
experienced well-above global average rates of ocean warming. We review the observed …

Australia's marine life is highly diverse and endemic. Here we describe projections of
climate change in Australian waters and examine from the literature likely impacts of these …

The marine life of Canada's Pacific marine ecosystems, adjacent to the province of British
Columbia, may be relatively responsive to rapid oceanographic and environmental change …

A major observed and predicted impact of climate change on marine species is the
poleward shift in their distributions and the resulting changes in community structure. Here …

Ocean warming 'hotspots' are regions characterized by above‐average temperature
increases over recent years, for which there are significant consequences for both living …

Extreme climatic events, such as heat waves, are predicted to increase in frequency and
magnitude as a consequence of global warming but their ecological effects are poorly …

The effects of anthropogenic climate change on biodiversity are well known for some high‐
profile Australian marine systems, including coral bleaching and kelp forest devastation …

Several lines of evidence show that ocean warming off the east coast of Tasmania is the
result of intensification of the East Australian Current (EAC). Increases in the strength …

A central question in contemporary ecology is how climate change will alter ecosystem
structure and function across scales of space and time. Climate change has been shown to …

Recent increases in the frequency of Extreme Climate Events (ECEs) such as heatwaves
and floods have been attributed to climate change, and could have pronounced ecosystem …
