Forty years of chemical and physical upheaval in the heart of the Sargasso Sea

The oceans play a key role in balancing the climate and are a reservoir of biodiversity, but the warning signs are multiplying. A recent study reveals that in just 40 years, the waters around Bermuda have undergone unprecedented transformations, impacting their physical and chemical properties. These changes, which reflect global trends, threaten the stability of marine ecosystems and highlight the critical environmental challenges we face in preserving this vital balance.
