Le Monde: Creșterea vertiginoasă a temperaturilor continuă în ocean, care se îndreaptă spre un record istoric

In July 2026, ocean temperatures reached unprecedented highs, with over a quarter of the ocean experiencing intense heat waves. This phenomenon severely impacts marine ecosystems and human societies, particularly in the North Atlantic and Mediterranean. The ongoing El Niño is expected to exacerbate these conditions, leading to further ecological stress. Marine life, including mollusks, is suffering from elevated temperatures, with significant mortality rates reported. The long-term consequences of these heat waves on marine biodiversity remain largely unstudied, raising concerns about future ecological stability and extreme weather events influenced by warmer ocean temperatures.
