World Weather Attribution estimated that human-caused warming added about 2°C to Mediterranean extremes and greatly enlarged the affected area. The rapid analysis warns of impacts on species, fisheries, coastal health and heavy rain, while remaining subject to later scientific review.
The research examined Brazil’s Equatorial Margin and projected cumulative spill risks for seagrass meadows, mangroves, rhodolith beds, coral reefs, mesophotic reefs and seamount ecosystems.
A subpolar Atlantic region south of Greenland and Iceland is cooling while much of the planet warms. Recent studies link that signal to changes in ocean heat transport and reinforce the need to monitor the AMOC without simplified diagnoses or alarmism.
