Beyond single stressors: non-additive interactions between marine heat waves and light limitation in a keystone seagrass species.

Coastal Mediterranean ecosystems are increasingly affected by multiple stressors, including marine heatwaves (MHWs) and reduced light availability, which threaten foundation species such as the seagrass Posidonia oceanica. Using a full-factorial experimental design, P. oceanica plants were exposed to two simulated mari...
