Short summary
From Cape Hatteras to Nova Scotia, local communities have suffered consequences of ocean warming, with warmer-water species moving north, lobster populations struggling due to rising temperatures, and more frequent marine heat waves. We developed an ocean model that includes carbon/nutrients cycle and validated it with data from moorings, satellites, and other observations. This tool will help future studies better understand how ocean changes affect marine life and society.
