The changes observed in metabolism indicate that prolonged exposure to microplastics may lead to sublethal effects, potentially reducing the energy yield of gorgonians over time. (Image credit: Odei Garcia-Garin and Núria Viladrich)

Prolonged Exposure to Microplastics Disrupts the Metabolism of Mediterranean Octocorals

Synthesis of oceanic forcing and coastal exposure during the 2023–2024 El Niño across Africa. Panel (a) shows sea surface temperature anomalies revealing widespread marine heatwaves and suppressed upwelling that amplified sea levels across African waters. Panel (b) shows sea level rise trends from 1993 to 2024 combined with land subsidence data, highlighting hotspots in Small Island Developing States, the Gulf of Guinea, Senegal, Mauritania, and the Somali coast where relative sea level rise exceeds the global average. Population density is overlaid on land, and major upwelling systems are outlined in red. (Image credit: Ghomsi et al., Communications Earth & Environment (2026). Licensed under CC BY 4.0)
