Solar Geoengineering Could Protect Most Oceans from Heat Waves
A Michigan State University study suggests solar geoengineering could protect up to 75% of oceans from heat waves, but protection would be uneven.

An AI algorithm developed by Macquarie University researchers can detect smuggled shark fins, seahorses, and sea cucumbers with 92% accuracy using X-ray CT scans.
New research indicates an increase in blue and fin whale sightings in the Southeast Atlantic, suggesting a slow but steady recovery for these species after decades of commercial whaling.
A University of Maine study found that U.S. consumers are willing to pay more for lobster harvested using ropeless technology, which reduces whale entanglement risks.
RIKEN researchers identified the ngly2 gene responsible for an acid-active deglycosylating enzyme in fish embryos and determined its molecular structure, suggesting its role in aquatic adaptation.
A new study used historical Swedish newspapers to reveal that harbor porpoises once had a much wider distribution across the Baltic Sea, including areas where they are now rare or absent, providing crucial insights for conservation.
New research indicates that the survival of seagrass meadows in warming oceans is significantly influenced by the microbial communities within their surrounding sediment, highlighting a critical factor for conservation efforts.
New research suggests that the size of eggs laid by ancient marine creatures may explain why ammonites went extinct while nautiloids survived the asteroid impact that ended the Cretaceous period.
Scientists developed a new laser-based method combining geochemistry and marine ecology to accurately determine shark age, aiding conservation efforts for vulnerable species like the Speartooth Shark.
A new study reveals that the ability of fish to feed on hard surfaces spurred a significant burst of reef fish evolution around 50 million years ago, leading to increased biodiversity.
