within marine environments have a dramatic influence on human and ecosystem health and on ocean biogeochemical processes. Understanding how climate change impacts contaminant cycles as well as ...

In the Arctic, the old, multi-year ice is increasingly melting, dramatically reducing the frequency and size of pressure ...

In the Arctic, the old, multiyear ice is increasingly melting, dramatically reducing the frequency and size of pressure ridges. These ridges are created when ice floes press against each other and ...

Arctic sea ice is undergoing profound changes, with older, rugged ice diminishing and younger, smoother ice becoming more ...

Prochlorococcus marinus, a tiny, emerald-colored microbe, is the most abundant photosynthesizing organism on Earth. It is ...

Clam shells could help scientists understand the Atlantic Ocean’s sensitive circulation system — and predict whether that ...

Ocean's depths preserve organic carbon through sorption and molecular transformation offering insights into climate change ...

The most damaging water-related disasters in 2024 included flash floods, river floods, droughts, tropical cyclones and ...

MIT researchers found that the ocean microbe Prochlorococcus aids carbon cycling by releasing DNA components for other microbes.

The carbon cycle is the biogeochemical cycle focused on carbon and how it is sequestered in and moves between different reservoirs in the Earth system. Microbial activity in marine sediment acts ...

Climate change has significantly disrupted the Earth's water cycle, leading to a surge in severe water-related disasters, a ...
