🐠 Clownfish can shrink during heat stress. In response to marine heatwaves, some clownfish have been observed reducing their body size, a rare example of fish physically shrinking to cope with warmer waters! 🌊🌡️

After a year of secrecy from Australian authorities, scientists are now revealing the terrible toll of global heating on the northern & southern Great Barrier Reef in 2024.
More mass bleaching & mortality is underway this year in the northern GBR.

Marine heatwaves are an increasingly common component of climate change. Their intensity and regularity are increasing as warming accelerates, the oceans adapt and we reduce pollution.

Worse things happen at sea - Marine Heatwaves
Marine Heatwaves tend to be treated as curiosities that might bring interesting species to our shores, but in many ways their impacts and implications are even more serious than land based heatwaves.

Water has been CRAZY hot off WA recently l.
So many marine ecosystems are in drastic danger when #marineheatwaves like this one occurs.
We'll know the impacts in due course.
Brace yourselves- they won't be good.

Waters around northern tropical Australia were by far the hottest on record for January 2025. Data from 1900-2025 from ERSSTv5. Typically northern Australian water temperatures peak in late summer
