Seventy years' observations of changes in distribution and abundance of zooplankton and intertidal organisms in the western English Channel in relation to rising sea temperature
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied changes in marine communities in southwest Britain and the western English Channel during the past 70 years and found that the distribution of both plankton and intertidal organisms was affected, with latitudinal shifts of up to 120 miles; there were increases or decreases of 2-3 orders of magnitude in abundance.
