Gulf of Maine Gets Cooler, Ecosystem Breathes | Portland Maine News
Description
The Gulf of Maine just got a surprising cool-down — a rare pause in its decade-long warming trend — thanks to shifting ocean currents bringing in colder Labrador water. While this temporary chill is a welcome relief for marine life, slowing invasive species and boosting eelgrass growth, scientists caution that the lobster industry still needs to stay adaptable. The region remains far warmer than historical norms, and researchers are watching closely to see if this is a fleeting reprieve or the beginning of a new pattern.
