...In marine and freshwater systems, advances in the timing of annual phytoplankton blooms— the basis for many aquatic food webs—have occurred more rapidly than temporal shifts in terrestrial plants (37, 60)....

...The distributions of many marine taxa have shifted at higher velocities than those of terrestrial taxa (37) because areas with rapid changes in climate extend across broader regions of the ocean than on land, and connectivity in marine environments tends to be high (85)....

...For most species, migrations and life-history processes (such as budding and flowering in plants, hatching and fledging in birds, and hibernation in mammals) are closely tied to seasonal and interannual variation in climate, and there is now overwhelming evidence that both have been affected by climate change (10, 37, 55, 56)....
