Climate experts are warning of unprecedented sea surface temperatures in the North Atlantic, with El Niño's return exacerbating the situation. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has warned that half of the world's oceans may experience marine heat wave conditions by September. High Ocean Temperatures are causing coral bleaching and impacting fisheries, with marine life moving to cooler waters. The warming ocean is also leading to the proliferation of harmful algae, which can contaminate shellfish. These temperature increases are higher than predicted by models and are a result of human-caused climate change.
