The ocean naturally absorbs a quarter to a third of man-made CO2 emissions, but this process also leads to the acidification ...

The new technique begins with large blooms of microscopic plants called phytoplankton. These phytoplankton blooms remove ...

The technique harnesses the animals' daily habits to essentially accelerate the ocean’s natural cycle for removing carbon ...

A Dartmouth-led study proposes a new method for recruiting trillions of microscopic sea creatures called zooplankton in the ...

To mitigate climate change, human-made carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions must be reduced as quickly and drastically as possible. Additionally, some of the CO2 already emitted needs to be safely removed ...

The researchers aim to enhance the efficiency of the biological pump—a cycle that transfers carbon from the atmosphere to the ...

Roughly 71% of our planet is covered by water, and 97% of that is an ocean wrapped around land masses that rise from the sea ...

‘Recent estimates suggest that 1,000 visitors to a beach in a single day could release 36 kg of sunscreen into the ...

Leveraging the food of tiny phytoplankton could trap carbon and sequester it to the ocean’s bottom.

In some of the world's seas, the waters light up and produce the poetic images we compile in this video. They are caused by ...

Some of the world's smallest animals and their tiny poops could aid in the fight against climate change. A study reports that clay dust sprayed on the surface of seawater converts free-floating carbon ...
