Climate Change and Ocean Heat Waves

Ten years ago, a significant marine heatwave, known as "the Blob," severely affected the Pacific Ocean's ecosystem.

The resulting environmental stress led to mass die-offs of seabirds, highlighting the vulnerability of marine life.

Scientists predict an increase in the frequency and intensity of these heatwaves due to global warming.

The Blob's impact serves as a critical case study, emphasizing the urgency of addressing climate change to protect our oceans.
