NOAA report finds Gulf of Maine warming slowed for now, but ecosystem remains unstable
NOAA's report indicates the Gulf of Maine's warming has slowed temporarily, with cooler temperatures in 2024 and 2025 after a decade of rapid warming, but long-term warming is expected to resume. Maine fishing ports like Stonington, Harpswell, and Friendship show increased activity due to high lobster prices, though scientists warn the ecosystem remains unstable due to climate change.
