Marine heatwaves routinely cause major ecosystem degradation affecting valuable industries. The aim of this project is to extend our understanding to the workings of temperature extremes hidden below the ocean surface and how other concurrent ocean and terrestrial extremes interact with these marine heatwaves. The project will generate significant new knowledge around the mechanisms driving subsurface heatwaves and how they interact with ocean acidification, oxygen and terrestrial extremes. The outcomes would include improved forecasting of ocean extremes and a quantification of the multivariate risks posed to marine species. This will help guide mitigation or adaptation strategies, benefitting exposed industries like fisheries and tourism.

海洋热浪经常造成重大的生态系统退化，影响到有价值的工业。该项目的目的是扩大我们对隐藏在海洋表面下的极端温度的理解，以及其他海洋和陆地极端温度如何与这些海洋热浪相互作用。该项目将围绕驱动地下热浪的机制以及它们如何与海洋酸化，氧气和陆地极端情况相互作用产生重要的新知识。其成果将包括改进对海洋极端事件的预测，并量化对海洋物种构成的多变量风险。这将有助于指导缓解或适应战略，使渔业和旅游业等暴露行业受益。
