Warming Oceans Putting Marine Life ‘In a Blender’ by Carl Zimmer of the New York Times details the drastic changes that will occur if temperatures in the oceans continue to rise. According to the article, due to the increase of greenhouse gasses trapped in ozone layer, temperatures have been rising. The raised temperature has caused the oceans to warm and glaciers to melt over time. The increase of temperature not only affects the sea level average but also the sea animals that live inside it. A marine biologist at Rutgers University, Dr. Pinsky sums up the current problem by stating that “Climate change can leave a gaping hole in the oceans.” Rising sea temperature is causing a significant drop in

Malin Pinsky did not take part in the studies that found the migration and population drop of sea life, but his thoughts set the tone for the article. The marine biologist states that “If you put a bunch of species in a blender, you’re not entirely sure what’s going to come out”. This statement tells the reader how unsure scientist are about how the recent events will play out in the long run. In the article, Pinsky communicates his worries about the seafood shortage in the tropics. With the sea life moving inward and away from the coast, fisherman are going to have a hard time apprehending their catch. Jennifer Sunday is a marine ecologist at the University of British Colombia. She did not participate in the study, though she supported the study and thought it was “an advance in the understanding of the ocean’s future”. Sunday explains that there is a lot of information to be found out about ocean inhabitants and how they can be affected by other things than temperature. A study she participated in was featured in Ecology Letters. The study concluded that small ranged species can adapt to varied
