Our seas are undergoing profound transformations due to the increasingly evident effects of climate change and thermal anomalies. Gorgonians are showing more and more signs of mortality, while thermophilic species such as the infamous vermocane and alien ones from the tropics, which prefer warmer waters, are spreading. This was revealed by the data collected in 2023 as part of the Mare Caldo project, conducted thanks to the collaboration between the DISTAV (Department of Earth, Environmental and Life Sciences) of the University of Genoa and Greenpeace Italia to monitor the impacts of the crisis climate change on marine biodiversity of reef communities.
