Even with the COVID-19-related small dip in global carbon emissions due to limited travel and other activities, the ocean temperatures continued a trend of breaking…
An international research team that included three scientists from the University of Rhode Island’s Graduate School of Oceanography has discovered single-celled microorganisms in a location…
Sea level could rise higher than current estimates by 2100 if climate change is unchallenged, according to a new assessment. Its authors say understanding the…
New study suggests waters will become more turbulent as Arctic loses summertime ice. Eddies are often seen as the weather of the ocean. Like large-scale…
The ocean’s role in past atmospheric carbon dioxide change comes into focus. The last million years of Earth history have been characterized by frequent “glacial-interglacial…
New research reveals significant changes to the circulation of the North Pacific and its impact on the initial migration of humans from Asia to North…
A paper to be published in Frontiers in Marine Science on December 15 is calling for action to remove the oil from a decaying and inactive tanker…
Fishermen, swimmers, and seafood enthusiasts may already know the dangers of “red tides,” but a recent study in Frontiers in Climate shows that climate change…
Australian research voyage to investigate how life in the Southern Ocean captures and stores carbon from the atmosphere. A fleet of new-generation, deep-diving ocean robots…
Leakage from frozen layers was a puzzle, but a new study shows how the potent greenhouse gas breaks through icy barriers. Methane, the main component…
A new study shows that increased heat from Arctic rivers is melting sea ice in the Arctic Ocean and warming the atmosphere. The study published…
The “Photoacoustic Airborne Sonar System” could be installed beneath drones to enable aerial underwater surveys and high-resolution mapping of the deep ocean. Stanford University engineers…
