海洋热浪正在改变海洋生态系统,但人们对水下事件的了解仍然十分有限。利用高分辨率气候预测表明,到本世纪末,海底热浪可能使大多数地中海底栖物种暴露于近乎持续的极端热浪之中,从而暴露生物多样性面临的潜在威胁,并对深水避难所的假设提出质疑。
Marine heatwaves are transforming ocean ecosystems, yet subsurface events remain poorly understood. Konsta et al. use high-resolution climate projections to show that bottom marine heatwaves could expose most Mediterranean benthic species to near-continuous extreme heatwaves by the century's end, exposing hidden threats to biodiversity and questioning the assumption of deep-water refugia.
