Little doubt is left that climate change is underway, strongly affecting the Earth's biodiversity.
Some of the greatest challenges ahead concern the marine realm, but it is unclear to what …

The semi-enclosed nature of the Mediterranean Sea, together with its smaller inertia due to
the relative short residence time of its water masses, make it highly reactive to external …

The Ocean plays a central role in Earth's climate and has absorbed 93% of the extra energy
from the enhanced greenhouse effect and approximately 30% of anthropogenic carbon …

Extreme ocean warming events, known as marine heatwaves (MHWs), have been observed
to perturb significantly marine ecosystems and fisheries around the world. Here, we propose …

Abstract We analyse recent Mediterranean Sea surface temperatures (SSTs) and their
response to global change using 1/4-degree gridded advanced very-high-resolution …

Oceans play a key role in energy storage in the global Earth–Ocean–Atmosphere system.
Within this framework, the knowledge of past evolution and future trends of sea surface …

The oceans are warming. Over the period 1961 to 2003, global ocean temperature has risen
by 0.10 C from the surface to a depth of 700 m. Consistent with the Third Assessment Report …

Potential for, and limits to, adaptation to environmental changes are critical for resilience and
risk mitigation. The Mediterranean basin is a mosaic of biodiversity‐rich ecosystems long …

The Mediterranean is expected to be one of the most prominent and vulnerable climate
change “hotspots” of the twenty-first century, and the physical mechanisms underlying this …

Satellite data show a steady increase, in the last decades, of the surface temperature (upper
few millimetres of the water surface) of the Mediterranean Sea. Reports of mass mortalities …
