Portuguese man o’ war found on Welsh beach. Is climate change making sightings more common?

06 Oct 2023  |  www.euronews.com
Beachgoers in Wales have been warned after a Portuguese man o’ war was found on Anglesey, with sightings becoming more common due to rising sea temperatures. These creatures, often mistaken for jellyfish, are dangerous when washed ashore as their sting remains potent for weeks. Record-breaking marine heatwaves off the UK and Irish coasts are believed to be driving these creatures closer to shore.

The Earth's Oceans Are Changing Color Due to Climate Change

17 Aug 2023  |  ru.euronews.com
Satellite data over the past 20 years shows that 56% of the world's oceans have changed color from blue to green, particularly in tropical regions near the equator. Researchers, including B.B. Keil from the National Oceanographic Center in Southampton, believe this greening indicates climate change's impact on underwater life, particularly phytoplankton, which are crucial for oxygen production and atmospheric stability. The color change may reflect ecosystem shifts, with green hues indicating increased phytoplankton activity. However, determining the exact cause and long-term trends requires further observation, with NASA's upcoming Pace mission set to provide more detailed data.

Oceans are becoming greener due to climate change

17 Jul 2023  |  fr.euronews.com
Satellite data over the past 20 years show a change from blue to green in 56% of the Earth's oceans, particularly in tropical regions near the equator. Researchers, including B. B. Cael from the National Oceanography Centre in the UK, attribute this subtle greening to climate change effects on marine life, specifically phytoplankton at the base of most food chains. The study, published on July 12 in Nature, suggests that while the exact nature and causes of these changes are not confirmed, they likely indicate human activity's impact on large parts of the global biosphere. A NASA mission called Pace, set for launch in January 2024, aims to further understand ocean color changes by monitoring plankton, aerosols, clouds, and the ocean ecosystem.

Oceans are changing color due to climate change

15 Jul 2023  |  tr.euronews.com
Satellite data over the past 20 years indicates that 56% of the world's oceans have shifted from blue to green, particularly in tropical regions near the equator. Researchers, including BB Cael from the National Oceanography Centre, believe this greening of the oceans is a sign of the impact of climate change on underwater life, linked to phytoplankton, which play a crucial role in oxygen production and atmospheric balance. The exact cause and nature of these changes are not yet confirmed, but the color change could reflect a shift in the state of ecosystems. A NASA mission named PACE, scheduled for launch in January 2024, aims to further investigate these color changes and monitor plankton, aerosols, clouds, and ocean ecosystems.

NASA satellites show more than half of the Earth's oceans are green due to climate change disturbing marine ecosystems.

13 Jul 2023  |  euronews
The article discusses the findings from NASA's Modis-Aqua satellite, which has detected a shift in the color of over half of the world's oceans from blue to green over the past 20 years. This change is particularly noticeable in tropical regions near the equator. Researchers, including BB Cael from the National Oceanography Centre in Southampton, UK, believe this greening is indicative of changes in marine ecosystems due to climate change, likely linked to phytoplankton, which are crucial for oxygen production and atmospheric stability. The study suggests that these color changes could signal broader ecological shifts, but also notes the difficulty in attributing these changes directly to climate change due to natural variability in chlorophyll levels. A new NASA mission called Pace is set to launch in January 2024 to further study these phenomena.
