Seaweed moves south as oceans warm
Description: Temperate species are moving to cooler environments. Swathes of Australia's seaweed are shifting south to escape warming oceans, and many risk going extinct, a new study has found. In Australia there are no cooler environments beyond the south coast, so if the species are pushed to go beyond that they basically go extinct. [Source: ABC Science]
