Heat wave offers glimpse into climate change
2014-08-25 15:30:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
PhysOrg: An unprecedented marine heat wave that swept the Southeast Indian Ocean in 2011 has given FIU scientists a glimpse into the future of climate change. The heat wave caused the loss of more than 90 percent of the dominant seagrass in some regions of Shark Bay, Australia. Since seagrass meadows provide habitat for many ecologically important species and provide food for large grazers like turtles and sea cows, this dieback could have significant impacts on marine wildlife in the region, particularly...
