BACKGROUND Anthropogenic climate change is altering the structure and functioning of
ecosystems globally. The upper layers of the oceans have absorbed> 90% of the excess …

Sandy beaches are iconic interfaces that functionally link the ocean with the land via the flow
of organic matter from the sea. These cross‐ecosystem fluxes often comprise uprooted …

Climate change is responsible for increased frequency, intensity, and duration of extreme
events, such as marine heatwaves (MHWs). Within eastern boundary current systems …

Extreme climatic events including marine heatwaves (MHWs) are becoming more frequent
and severe in the Anthropocene. However, our understanding of how these events affect …

Marine heatwaves threaten the persistence of kelp forests globally. However, the observed
responses of kelp forests to these events have been highly variable on local scales. Here …

Significant questions remain about how ecosystems that are structured by abiotic stress will
be affected by climate change. Warmer temperatures are hypothesized to shift species along …

Ocean warming has both direct physiological and indirect ecological consequences for
marine organisms. Sessile animals may be particularly vulnerable to anomalous warming …

The changing global climate is having profound effects on coastal marine ecosystems
around the world. Structure, functioning, and resilience, however, can vary geographically …

Marine heatwaves (MHW) are becoming stronger and more frequent across the globe.
MHWs affect the thermal physiology of all biological organisms, but wider ecosystem effects …

Aim Marine forests of brown macroalgae create essential habitats for coastal species and
support invaluable ecological services. Here, we provide the first global analysis of species …
