Ocean temperature variability is a fundamental component of the Earth's climate system, and
extremes in this variability affect the health of marine ecosystems around the world. The …

The physical understanding and timely prediction of extreme weather events are of
enormous importance to society due to their associated impacts. In this article, we highlight …

Prolonged high-temperature extreme events in the ocean, marine heatwaves, can have
severe and long-lasting impacts on marine ecosystems, fisheries and associated services …

Marine heatwaves (MHWs) are prolonged extreme oceanic warm water events. They can
have devastating impacts on marine ecosystems—for example, causing mass coral …

Marine heatwaves (MHWs) can cause devastating impacts to marine life. Despite the
serious consequences of MHWs, our understanding of their drivers is largely based on …

Recently, there has been substantial effort to understand the fundamental characteristics of
warm ocean temperature extremes—known as marine heatwaves (MHWs). However, MHW …

Abstract The Tasman Sea off southeast Australia exhibited its longest and most intense
marine heatwave ever recorded in 2015/16. Here we report on several inter-related aspects …

A marine heatwave (MHW) is typically defined as an anomalous warm event in the surface
ocean, with wide-ranging impacts on marine and socio-economic systems. The surface …

Ocean warming linked to anthropogenic climate change is impacting the ecology of marine
species around the world. In 2010, the Gulf of Maine and Scotian Shelf regions of the …

Global climate models were used to assess changes in the mean, variability and extreme
sea surface temperatures (SSTs) in northern oceans with a focus on large marine …
