Could Bubbling Oxygen Revitalize Dying Coastal Seas?
Reoxygenation approaches have shown some success in lakes, but their potential risks must be examined carefully before they’re implemented as solutions to improve the health of coastal waters.
Upwelling Near Fronts Initiate Offshore Phytoplankton Blooms
A new study finds that phytoplankton blooms, often seen near the separation point of western boundary currents, are supported by nutrient supply upwelling and cross-shelf transport.
Forecasting the Future of Southern Ocean Ecosystems
A new ensemble of marine ecosystem models aims to improve understanding of how climate change will affect the waters surrounding Antarctica.
El ADN de los sedimentos lacustres revelan el impacto de los peces introducidos
La trucha no nativa ha alterado la diversidad del zooplancton que habita en los lagos de gran elevación.
DNA in Lake Sediment Reveals the Impact of Introduced Fish
Non-native trout have altered the diversity of zooplankton that live in high-elevation lakes.
Machine Learning Enhances Image Analysis in Biogeosciences
Machine learning can enhance our ability to identify communities of microorganisms and how they change in response to climate change over time.
Phytoplankton Shield Ice Shelves from Summer Heat
Spring blooms shade Antarctic ice shelves, causing them to melt 7% more slowly than they would if they were surrounded by clear, bloomless waters.
The Many Adventures of Nitrogen in the Arctic Ocean
New research reviews how our atmosphere’s most abundant element cycles through the Arctic Ocean—and how climate change could affect the process.
