Original: Ocean State Report 10 reveals two-decade high in Mediterranean marine heatwaves

The finding points to intensifying warming in one of the world's most vulnerable seas, with scientists warning of consequences for marine ecosystems, fisheries and coastal communities across the region.
Why now: The new report documents record-level ocean warming in a sea surrounded by densely populated European and North African countries.
