Volcanic CO2 seeps in Papua New Guinea have acted as a 'time machine,' allowing scientists to predict the fate of coral reefs. Research shows that by 2100, global reefs will be less complex, recover slowly, and be dominated by fleshy algae due to ocean acidification.
UC Irvine and NASA researchers have identified stormlike circulation patterns beneath Antarctic ice shelves that are causing aggressive melting. These "submesoscale" features drive warm water intrusion, accelerating the melt of key glaciers like Thwaites and Pine Island.
New research reveals continents "peel" from below, feeding enriched material into the oceanic mantle. This process, driven by slow mantle waves, explains why distant ocean volcanoes contain continental chemical signatures, solving a long-standing geological puzzle.
An AWI study suggests why the Southern Ocean is still absorbing CO2, defying climate models. Increased low-salinity surface water is creating a barrier, temporarily trapping carbon-rich water below and preserving the vital carbon sink.
Gain insights from Dr Jon Tore Lieng, Managing Director of Deep Sea Anchors AS, as he discusses more about Dynamically Installed Anchors for offshore floating wind turbines.
The island of Syros in Greece is upping its efforts in Europe’s maritime innovation efforts with a partnership between the University of Aegean and EIT Digital.
As oxygen levels in coastal waters worldwide continue to plummet, researchers are exploring whether artificial oxygenation could offer a lifeline to marine ecosystems on the brink.
Open Access Government addresses salient global environmental challenges, in particular, on the topics of international agriculture, marine and coastal protection.
Rüdiger Strempel, Executive Secretary of HELCOM (1), reflects on Finland’s special connection with HELCOM and the organisation’s regional efforts to protect the Baltic Sea.
Phil Haslam, Managing Director of the North Atlantic Fishing Company, argues that the fishing industry must delicately balance its essential food production role with the need to protect the marine environment.
Read about the unique challenges coastal regions face from human activities and the combined crisis of pollution, biodiversity loss, and climate change.
The UK maritime industry is undergoing an important change that hopes to modernise the training development of seafarers, particularly cadets, through the Maritime and Coastguard Agency's (MCA) Cadet Training and Modernisation (CT&M) Programme.
