Summary:
- The Mediterranean Sea is experiencing a phenomenon called "tropicalization," where the water temperature is rising and reaching levels typically found in tropical regions.
- This warming of the Mediterranean waters is causing significant changes in the ecosystem, with the introduction of new species and the displacement of native ones.
- The increased water temperature is also leading to the spread of invasive species, which can disrupt the delicate balance of the marine environment and have negative impacts on local fisheries and biodiversity.
