Borehole heat exchangers in coastal areas may reduce heatwave seagrass loss by Rotman Criollo, Víctor Vilarrasa, Alejandro Orfila, Núria Marbà, Angels Fernández-Mora

“…We propose a methodology to strategically locate BHE to discharge cooler temperatures into the sea during summer, alleviating the extreme marine temperatures occurring during marine heatwaves around the groundwater discharge areas, and ensuring a thermal refuge for temperature-sensitive coastal ecosystems. This study opens a new avenue to accomplish the climate targets of the Paris Agreement and mitigate the negative effects of global warming on coastal ecosystems.…”
