Cover Story: The warming of the Mediterranean is already well known, but information is still lacking on its seasonal/annual-to-multidecadal scale and its distribution across water masses, including deep water. New temporal and spatial evidence of this thermal variability has been presented in the Tyrrhenian Sea, with 20-year continuous monitoring by eXpendable BathyThermographs along a fixed route. The warm signal, coming from the Levantine basin and entering from the south, influences the entire Tyrrhenian basin, rapidly spreading towards the north, based on its topography, circulation, strong stratification and climate variability. This observed warming is consistent with trends for the whole Mediterranean Sea. However, around 2014, a shift towards a new warmer state was detected, with average values significantly higher than the previous period, especially from 100 to 450 m depth. View this paper
