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 …

Robust evidence exists that certain extreme weather and climate events, especially daily
temperature and precipitation extremes, have changed in regard to intensity and frequency …

Considerable attention has been directed at understanding the consequences and impacts
of long-term anthropogenic climate change. Discrete, climatically extreme events such as …

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 …

Marine heatwaves (MHWs) have been observed around the world and are expected to
increase in intensity and frequency under anthropogenic climate change. A variety of …

The growing number of artificial structures in estuarine, coastal and marine environments is
