How bubbles may speed up CO2 uptake by the ocean. New study provides evidence that the ocean may have absorbed as much as 15% (0.3-0.4 Pg C yr-1) more CO2 […]
Why Europe’s fisheries management needs a rethink. As legally required by the European Union, sustainable fisheries may not extract more fish than can regrow each year. Yet, about 70 per cent […]
How do marine food webs respond to increasing alkalinity? To mitigate climate change, human-made carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions must be reduced as quickly and drastically as possible. Additionally, some of […]
Adapting to hypoxia: Zooplankton influence the efficiency of the biological carbon pump in the Humboldt Current off Peru. In the ocean, organic particles from the sunlit surface water sink to […]
Tipping point in Humboldt Current off Peru leads to species shift. Researchers have reconstructed the link between ocean warming and shift to smaller fish species using sediment samples from the […]
New study provides insights into the basis of the marine ecosystem. Phytoplankton are the foundation of ocean ecosystems: like rainforests, they consume carbon from the atmosphere, form the basis of […]
