Rapid sea ice loss and ocean acidification from climate change are altering the growth and nutritional value of microscopic ...
The study, published in Science of the Total Environment, suggests that some species of zooplankton — a critical food source ...
The researchers aim to enhance the efficiency of the biological pump—a cycle that transfers carbon from the atmosphere to 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 ...
Accelerating the ocean's uptake of CO2 by increasing its alkalinity could mitigate climate change, but little is known about ...
In addition to being a crucial source of oxygen, phytoplankton form the base of aquatic food webs. Small fish, crustaceans, and zooplankton feed on phytoplankton. Those creatures are then eaten by ...
The ocean naturally absorbs a quarter to a third of man-made CO2 emissions, but this process also leads to the acidification of seawater. By ...
will continue to shrink in size due to climate change that is depriving the fish of their primary food resource. Researchers say the species of zooplankton that the fish feed on is becoming ...
