This increase added to a series of rises recorded since May 2023, when the warm El Niño current...
Climate change could have a key enemy that could help slow it down: a type of common marine algae, with a great capacity to cool the Earth. This finding, led by researchers from the University of East Anglia (UEA)...
Following the success of the Interceptor 005 in Malaysia, supported by Coldplay and christened as 'Neon Moon I', we will now deploy a second Interceptor, currently in assembly, destined for the Cisadane River in Jakarta, Indonesia: the Interceptor 020,...
A research team from the Marine Research Institute (INMAR) at the University of Cádiz (UCA) discovered that climate change and alterations in the interactions between plants and animals are modifying carbon cycles in marine ecosystems. These changes not only...
Dolphins are not only a spectacle for the eyes, but they also play a crucial role as guardians of the oceans.
Their intelligence and exceptional abilities make them indispensable allies for science and a reminder of the importance of caring...
Overfishing has put the oceans in crisis. The global population of sharks and rays has been reduced by half since 1970, and one third of these marine species is at risk of extinction, according to a study published in...
Along thousands of kilometers of coastline, the sea hides a valuable natural treasure: the forests of **giant algae**.
"These are very relevant ecosystems. They are linked to temperate to cold coasts and are as important as corals in **equatorial latitudes**,"...
The **Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation** (AMOC) transports heat northward across the **Atlantic Ocean** and is crucial for the **climate** and **marine ecosystems**.
Currently, it is weaker than at any other time in the last 1000 years, possibly due to **global...
At the end of 2016, scientists detected a crack in the Larsen C ice shelf on the Antarctic Peninsula, which led to the detachment of iceberg A-68 in July 2017.
This iceberg, with more than double the size of Luxembourg...
Until now, rain has been ignored in calculations of the ocean's capacity to capture carbon dioxide (CO2), but a new estimate suggests that precipitation enhances the ocean's ability to trap emissions by 5% to 7%.
Importance of Oceans in the...
