As Arctic sea ice melts, it can produce clouds that can reduce warming – but what happens next for the climate? A new study provides the first real-world evidence of how […]
Warming seas fuel spread of harmful algal mega-blooms in the Bering Sea. Scientists have uncovered new evidence that climate change is driving toxin-producing harmful algal blooms (HABs) in the Pacific […]
Declining photosynthesis in UK and surrounding waters. A new study by scientists at Plymouth Marine Laboratory (PML) has revealed a significant long-term decline in ocean productivity across large parts of the north-east […]
Atlantic bluefin tuna will shift north as ocean warming accelerates. An international study led by researchers at AZTI examines how ocean warming is pushing Atlantic bluefin tuna northwards, while ecologically […]
How climate change is making Europe’s fish move to new waters. Plymouth Marine laboratory’s Dr Sevrine Sailley, Ecosystem Modeller, has written for The Conversation UK on how climate change is reshaping fish habitats, […]
Public surveys launched to investigate extraordinary ‘octopus bloom’ in South West waters. The Marine Biological Association (MBA) has launched two public surveys to gather vital information on the unusual surge in […]
‘Open gates’ in warming Arctic are expanding salmon range. New research has connected warming ocean temperatures to higher Pacific salmon abundance in the Canadian Arctic, an indicator that climate change […]
Study explores impacts of ocean warming and acidification on Pacific cod As the climate changes, the ocean is simultaneously warming and acidifying. Both have been shown to adversely affect the […]
Significant impact of global warming on biodiversity in European seas. Over the past 40 years, the Atlantic Ocean has experienced a tropicalisation of its communities, with an increase in the […]
Report shows all Irish inshore waters will be under pressure from climate change. Fair Seas research finds half of Irish waters are more resilient to effects of global warming A […]
Rivers rapidly warming and losing oxygen, putting aquatic life at risk. Rivers are warming and losing oxygen faster than oceans, according to a Penn State-led study published on Sept. 14 […]
New study finds rhetoric about ‘underfishing’ in U.S. waters may be misguided. As warming waters threaten fish populations and disrupt fisheries around the world, it is critical to find ways […]
Antarctic research links warming to fish decline. A long-term study in the Southern Ocean reveals a clear correlation between warming waters, decreased sea ice, and reduced abundance of Antarctic silverfish. […]
Pamela Anderson joins the fight to protect Antarctica’s waters. The campaign focused on increasing the protection of Antarctica’s waters received a huge boost with the announcement that actor and activist […]
With temperatures going up 20% faster than the global average, and sea level rises expected to exceed one meter by 2100, the Mediterranean is becoming the fastest-warming and the saltiest […]
Warming seas might also look less colourful to some fish: Here’s why that matters. When marine biologist Eleanor Caves of the University of Exeter thinks back to her first scuba […]
Reducing global warming matters for freshwater fish species Study – Radboud University Nijmegen The habitats of freshwater fish species are threatened by global warming, mainly due to rising water temperatures. […]
Fish in warming Scottish seas grow faster but reach a smaller size. Researchers have found new evidence that global warming is affecting the size of commercial fish species, documenting for […]
Ocean warming threatening commercial shellfish. Ocean warming is paradoxically driving bottom-dwelling invertebrates – including sea scallops, blue mussels, surfclams and quahogs that are valuable to the shellfish industry – into […]
