A new analysis method reveals that fish and invertebrate animals are significantly more impacted by warmer and more acidic seawater than previously understood, according to…
New research conducted by CSIRO, Australia’s national science agency, and the University of Toronto in Canada, estimates up to 11 million tons of plastic pollution…
A recent study presents an innovative use of dolomite U-Pb geochronology, offering fresh insights into the development of ancient marine ecosystems. Through identifying variations in…
A study by the UFZ has uncovered the presence of microplastics in a remote marine protected region. When plastic finds its way into the ocean,…
Claims that climate change occurs naturally conflict with recent trends in ocean temperatures, which are indicative of human influence. New oceanic research provides clear evidence…
Following a period of inactivity, the subduction zone beneath the Strait of Gibraltar will continue to invade the Atlantic Ocean. Oceans undergo constant transformations, often…
Scientists from China and Japan have identified unique features of the flow field in the lower mantle. Through their study of seismic anisotropy in the…
This section of the South Atlantic seabed harbors abundant cobalt, nickel, and lithium, along with tellurium and various rare earth elements crucial for the energy…
Weeks of warmer-than-average ocean temperatures caused extensive bleaching in the world’s largest coral reef system. Australia’s Great Barrier Reef has been hit by widespread coral…
Recent research has discovered that Seychelles’ remote coral reefs are interconnected through a “coral superhighway,” facilitated by ocean currents, emphasizing the role of larval dispersal…
Observations of unprecedented ocean temperatures in 2023 may become typical in a world that is 5.4°F (3.0°C) warmer than pre-industrial levels, according to a new…
There’s enough water frozen in Greenland and Antarctic glaciers that if they melted, global seas would rise by many feet. What will happen to these…
The Earth’s lithosphere is divided into multiple tectonic plates, which are continuously moving. This movement leads to the formation and fragmentation of supercontinents, alongside the…
Recent research employing computational simulations predicts that the subduction zone presently beneath the Strait of Gibraltar will extend further into the Atlantic, playing a key…
Marine heatwaves will become a regular occurrence in the Arctic in the near future and are a product of higher anthropogenic greenhouse-gas emissions – as…
New findings show that coral bleaching prompts the release of compounds that encourage harmful bacterial growth, suggesting these changes could serve as early indicators of…
In November 2023, the Copernicus Sentinel-3 mission documented a vast algae bloom around the Falkland Islands, highlighting the interplay between oceanic currents that fuel these…
