 The study reviews evidence of the responses of marine life to recent climate change across ocean regions and finds that general trends in species responses are consistent with expectations from climate change. However, the volume and type of evidence of species responses to climate change is variable across ocean regions and taxonomic groups, with much evidence derived from the heavily studied North Atlantic Ocean. Observations of species responses linked to anthropogenic climate change are widespread but are still lacking for some taxonomic groups, phytoplankton, benthic invertebrates, marine mammals.
