What is the issue?
How do you feel when your body temperature rises by 1 or 2 degrees? Your body aches all over, you feel weak and you experience the chills.
More and more often, extreme climatic events are occuring in the marine environment that cause an increase in the sea surface temperature. These events are called “marine heat waves” (MHWs) and occur when sea surface temperatures are anomalously warm –much warmer than would be expected for the time of the year and location. They can last for several days.
