Short summary
The western Mediterranean suffered unprecedented marine heatwaves in 2022. We focus on the coastal ocean, which is highly vulnerable to global warming and extreme events. Using satellite and in situ observations, strong spatiotemporal variations in the marine heatwave characteristics have been observed in 2022 and over the last decade. Differences between datasets also invite us to continue with efforts to sustain multi-platform observing systems from open-ocean to coastal ocean waters.
