and in time, they may pass on these heat tolerant genes and make reefs more resistant to future marine heat waves. “Last year we collected corals from the far north of the Great Barrier Reef that survived previous heat waves, and we flew them nearly ...
lead to more coastal inundation in low-lying regions during spring tides, like those in the western tropical Pacific. However, sea level rise increases at a relatively small rate – around 3 millimetres per year. So while this can create large differences over decades and longer, year to year...
In 2022, a split half of the now dried out T1 core (hereafter named T1_22) was sent to University of Western Australia (UWA) for micromorphological and automated mineral analysis. Upon arrival at UWA, the well-padded core was revealed to comprise a ∼10 cm base of partially-broken ceme...
date and methods have been included. Samples have been collected on research and commercial vessels in coastal and oceanic waters across a range of depths from the tropics to the sub-Antarctic, with estuarine waters excluded. Samples for zooplankton biomass measurement were collected in one of three...
The ability of marine animals to adapt their behaviour to their habitat provides hope of these animals' resilience to a rapidly changing, coastal marine environment. Lead author Dr. Ana Sequeira from the UWA Oceans Institute said it was important to understand how animals adapt their movement patte...
varied considerably, but all had deleterious impacts across a range of biological processes and taxa, including critical foundation species (corals, seagrasses and kelps). MHWs, which will probably intensify with anthropogenic climate change3, are rapidly emerging as forceful agents of disturbance with...
off the northwestern Iberian Peninsula. MHW events in EBCs (Table1, EBC) have been associated with anomalous poleward currents that advect heat and suppress upwelling. Tropical climate modes, especially ENSO, directly influence EBC systems due to the intersection of equatorial and coastal waveguides....
