Seagrass meadows provide multiple ecosystem services, yet they are among the most
threatened ecosystems on earth. Because of their role as carbon sinks, protection and …

We compiled published data in peer-review articles and grey literature reports, which we
appended with our own data, to assess the changes in areal extent, cover and shoot density …

Submerged and emergent wetland plant communities are evaluated for their response to
global climate change (GCC), focusing on seagrasses, submerged freshwater plants, tidal …

Rapid warming of the Mediterranean Sea threatens marine biodiversity, particularly key
ecosystems already stressed by other impacts such as Posidonia oceanica meadows. A 6 …

The Mediterranean Sea ranks among the ocean regions warming fastest. There is evidence
for impacts of climate change on marine Mediterranean organisms but a quantitative …

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 …

Mediterranean Sea, where the increase in sea surface temperature (SST) is particularly …

The prevalence of local adaptation and phenotypic plasticity among populations is critical to
accurately predicting when and where climate change impacts will occur. Currently …

Mediterranean Sea fisheries supply significant local and international markets, based
largely on small pelagic fish, artisanal fisheries and aquaculture of finfish (mainly seabass …

Seagrass meadows are disappearing at rates comparable to those reported for mangroves,
coral reefs, and tropical rainforests. One of the main causes of their decline is the so-called …
