San Francisco Chronicle: California’s coastal ocean is seeing a rare trend — and what happens next could be critical

"...On the last day of winter, as California was in the midst of a historic early-season heat wave, the ocean off Southern California crossed a striking threshold.

At Scripps Pier in La Jolla, a long-running sea surface temperature record topped out at 71 degrees, the warmest March reading in the station’s history. It was not an isolated spike. The reading broke a daily record, as had the day before. And the day before that.

“The Scripps Pier sea surface temperature bucket measurements have been hitting some all-time highs for the past few months,”..."

Suspicious because it sounds so much like Nordhaus: their outdoor focus on agriculture and mining.
These were also the only 2 sectors where Nordhaus saw harm to "the economy" from climate change.

Also Nordhaus-like suspicious: for them, heat stress only makes humans suffer.
No word of crop losses or loss of insect life due to heat stress.
Change in soil microbe composition and changed soil capillaries makes access to water ever more difficult for plants.

High temperature also drives drought via evaporation, so heat stress also causes drought-related damages in crops, soils, insects,
hinders electricity generation with water, nuclear and fossil fuels,
and disrupts water-dependent industry.

Heat stress and its drought-related stress cause built infrastructure to crumble, damages roads, rail tracks, and buildings.

All this has no impact on "the economy". Because economists don't know it, they still merely juggle with Nordhaus' DICE.

Global supply chains amplify economic costs of future extreme heat risk - Nature

A global high-resolution disaster footprint analytical model is developed to show substantial socioeconomic impacts from climatic change-driven heat stress through the global supply chain by 2060 due to direct and indirect effects on health and labour productivity.
