Impacts of Marine Heat Waves and Cold Spells in the Atlantic Ocean

Impacts of Marine Heat Waves and Cold Spells in the Atlantic Ocean

Marine heatwaves (MHW) are extreme climatic events in oceanic systems that can have devastating impacts on ecosystems, causing abrupt ecological changes and socioeconomic consequences. Marine heat waves are happening more frequently, with predictions of many parts of the ocean reaching a near-permanent MHW state by the late 21st century.
