In some parts of the world - including Australia, the US and the Pacific - marine heatwaves can destroy coral reefs or local fisheries, as well as vital seagrass meadows.The UK is usually more protected from these impacts because overall the waters are cooler. But scientists still don't know very much about them and have a lot more to discover.

A recent study led by Dr Jacobs found that the, where heatwaves can last longer than other areas of the country.Oceans have absorbed 90% of the excess heat created by humans burning fossil fuels, and as a result have warmed overall by 1C.

"Before we started having this exceptional weather this spring, the waters were already in a hotter state," says Dr Berthou.In the North Atlantic, sea surface temperatures have been increasing by around 0.3C per decade over the last 40 years, according to the Met Office.

The long spell of warm, dry weather is expected to break slightly this weekend.

"The ocean lags behind the atmosphere by at least a few days, so it might be that into next week we might start to see the ocean cooling off," says Dr Jacobs.Project Zulu arranges for choirs from South African townships to tour the UK every two years.

Mr Knight said UWE students studying professions such as teaching, engineering and occupational therapy were sent out to the township in South Africa annually to "spend a few weeks making valuable contributions to the educational life of schools in the township".Then every two years a choir, made up of children from two partnership schools, are brought over to Bristol to spend three weeks performing and sharing their talent and culture.

"They've been busking, they've put on concerts," he said.Mr Knight explained the tour aimed to raise money for the two schools involved.
