In the midst of the COVID pandemic, scientists embarked on an ambitious research expedition to the North Atlantic to ...
You are taught early in science that oxygen on Earth comes from sunlight. Plants, algae, and cyanobacteria use light to split water and release oxygen, shaping the atmosphere and making complex life ...
A rare purple sea snail (Janthina) washes ashore in San Deigo. Scientists reveal its floating bubble-raft lifestyle, striking violet colour and how ocean currents unexpectedly carried it to the beach.
New research shows that warm ocean currents triggered a rapid collapse of part of East Antarctica’s ice sheet 9,000 years ago, offering clues about future sea level rise.
New findings challenge climate models by revealing the Southern Ocean's unexpected, but also transient, resilience as a carbon sink.
New research reveals how the speed of ocean currents and the shape of the seabed influence the amount of heat flowing underneath Antarctic ice shelves, contributing to melting. Scientists at the ...
As climate change and growing electricity demand spark the search for new renewable energy, researchers have been recently ...
An autonomous submarine named Ran discovers strange structures under the Dotson Ice Shelf in Antarctica, before mysteriously disappearing.

Scientists sound alarm after noticing concerning pattern across the ocean: 'We will need to find out what threat these … pose'
As global temperatures rise, our oceans are heating up. Scientists recently found that warmer ocean temperatures are leading to stronger eddy currents — swirling currents that transport warm or cold ...
Deep-sea mining targets mineral deposits on the ocean floor, typically at depths of 3,000–6,000 meters. Most attention focuses on polymetallic nodules—potato-sized rocks lying on abyssal plains—and on ...
In recent years, a major ocean current changed its path in two crucial ways. Now parts of the sea are rising, other parts are falling, ocean temperatures are breaking records — and Japan’s iconic ...
