Organism gives sea its distinctive smell and promotes creation of clouds, thereby playing a significant role in global ...

They drift aimlessly at sea, soaking up sunlight from the sky and nutrients from the deep. Often invisible to the naked eye, these tiny invertebrates form the hidden backbone of ocean ecosystems.

Scientists have compared data from the last ice age, around 21,000 years ago, and modern records to see what happened to ...

A study reveals plankton, crucial for marine ecosystems, cannot adapt to rapid global warming, threatening marine life and ...

Researchers at MIT used 3D printed to develop water filters based on the geometries of manta ray filter-feeding systems.

Our study highlights the difference between faster human-induced and slower-paced geological warming for marine plankton. Current climate change is too rapid and is reducing food supply due to ...

A recent study by UBC zoologist Dr. Michelle Tseng and alumna Shim Gicole explored the ability of mealworms (Coleoptera: ...

Focuses on the biogeochemical cycling of trace metals in marine systems. CalCOFI is a long-term, interdisciplinary, cross-sectoral ecosystem research program off the coast of California that ...
