What two primary factors are accelerating the influx of Indo-Pacific marine species into the Eastern Mediterranean Sea?

💡 Explanation:

The accelerated ingress of Indo-Pacific species (known as Lessepsian migration) into the Mediterranean is primarily facilitated by two factors: the warming of Mediterranean waters due to climate change, which makes the environment more hospitable to tropical species, and the expanded Suez Canal, which provides an easier and wider migratory corridor from the Red Sea.
