Abstract
Extreme events have profound ecological impacts, but knowledge of how they affect underlying genetic diversity is scant. Gurgel et al. use rare empirical data from before a marine heatwave to demonstrate massive and cryptic loss of genetic diversity in underwater forests, which may compromise their ability to respond to future climatic change.
