Wanna bet?
The first two are separate papers outlining the discovery of two [potentially dangerous never before seen] species of fungi revealed due to retreating glaciers.

Meanwhile, an international team published their 2018 ocean heat content observations in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, and the findings were more than worrisome. The team found that 2018 is the hottest year ever recorded for the global ocean.

The reason why this is so problematic is that ocean heat content is considered to be one of the best ways to measure climate change evolution since more than 90% of global warming heat is deposited in our now vulnerable oceans.



...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
