  Escalating Patterns of Heatwaves and Tropical Nights in Coastal Areas
  Author(s): Tina Smith*
  
  The escalating patterns of heat waves and tropical nights in coastal regions are indicative of the profound impact of climate change on these vulnerable ecosystems. This article investigates the intensification of extreme heat events in coastal areas, exploring the underlying drivers, consequences and potential mitigation strategies. By analysing current research and data, we aim to provide insights into the growing threat posed by rising temperatures in these regions and underscore the urgency of climate action. Coastal regions, home to diverse ecosystems and human populations, are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of increasing temperatures. Through an analysis of temperature data and related factors, this research seeks to elucidate the driving forces behind these patterns and the implications for both natural and human systems...
