Global warming has a significant impact on marine life that cannot be ignored. Rising ocean temperatures and climate change have a direct impact on maritime ecosystems. First, higher water temperatures cause coral bleaching, a phenomenon in which corals, which are invertebrates, lose their symbiotic algae, zooxanthellae. Without these algae, which provide food through photosynthesis, corals become susceptible to disease and can eventually die, causing habitat loss for thousands of species of fish and other marine organisms. In addition, increasing temperatures also have an impact on the distribution of fish species. Many fish species depend on certain temperatures to reproduce and…
