The bow-tie analysis of climate-change impacts on the marine ecosystem and human activities within it shows the relationships across the DAPSIR framework. Drivers of increased atmospheric greenhouse gases are linked through the global climate to changes in the marine environment that exert pressure on a range of state indicators and ecosystem services. The connectivity and implications of climate change as a factor of cumulative effects are described in the Pressure , State and Impacts sections of this thematic assessment.
