Gulf of Alaska ocean heatwaves reshaped plankton and slowed the water’s carbon pump, trapping carbon near the surface instead ...

"Our research found that these two major marine heatwaves altered plankton communities and disrupted the ocean's biological carbon pump,” says Blif. “The conveyor belt carrying carbon from the surface ...

Tropical seas are nutrient-poor due to their warmth, which limits the upward cycling of nutrients from deeper waters.

But new research suggests the microscopic bacterium, which forms the foundation of the marine food web and helps regulate the planet’s climate, will decline sharply as seas heat up. A study published ...

If marine heatwaves start to disrupt the carbon pump around India — just as seen in Alaska — then more carbon might stay near the surface or return to the atmosphere.

What four decades of canned salmon reveal about marine food webs Date: April 5, 2024 Source: University of Washington Summary: Researchers have shown that levels of anisakid worms -- a common marine ...

Paralytic shellfish poisoning, or PSP, is a growing concern for Alaska’s entire marine food web, according to a scientist who presented testing data at Alaska Forum on the Environment on Monday. Bruce ...

For the first time, a significant loss at the base of the marine food web has been detected. The Scottish research vessel Capepod reported the findings in equatorial waters of the Atlantic Ocean. It’s ...

The study adopted an approach with moderate perturbations to seawater chemistry: CO₂-equilibrated Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement. With this approach, the alkalised water that has already absorbed CO 2 ...

The waters off California have grown quieter, and scientists are listening. New research from the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) has found a sharp decline in the number of blue whale ...
