| Description: |
Ocean temperatures around the globe have risen about 0.12°C per decade since 1980. In the coastal Northeast, sea surface temperatures warmed by nearly double the global rate from 1982 to 2006. These warming sea surface temperatures from climate change are pushing populations of the American Lobster (Homarus americanus) farther north than ever before. [Source: NOAA Climate.gov]
