Sea ice around Antarctica expanded for several decades until a dramatic decline in 2015. The reasons behind this are revealed ...

Several of the Earth’s systems are changing faster than predicted as global temperatures rise, scientists say.

Many mitigation and adaptation efforts are underway. Scientists issue warning after making alarming discovery beneath ocean's surface: 'Deeply concerning' first appeared on The Cool Down.

As climate change pushes heat deeper into the ocean, scientists have been concerned about disruptions to marine life’s delicate balance. But new research suggests that a key microbe, Nitrosopumilus ...

As deep-sea waters warm, scientists expected trouble for the microbes that help keep ocean chemistry in balance. Instead, researchers found that Nitrosopumilus maritimus can adapt to warmer, ...

Papers like this are like kindling for anyone 'just asking questions' about climate change, or 'doing their own research,' ...

An El Niño event combined with other weather phenomena led to record level sea rise in African oceans during 2023 and 2024.

Ancient fossils show how much warming tropical oceans can handle before plankton collapse, offering clues about future ...

The world's oceans are breaking climate records, with ocean heat content last year reaching its highest level on record. This new discovery follows a decades-long trend of ocean warming that shows no ...

Intense storms that sweep over the Southern Ocean enable the ocean to absorb more heat from the atmosphere. New research from the University of Gothenburg shows that today’s climate models ...

Scientists say the world’s oceans are warming far more quickly than previously thought, a finding with dire implications for climate change because almost all the excess heat absorbed by the planet ...

Deep-sea waters are warming due to heat waves and climate change, and it could spell trouble for the oceans' delicate chemical and biological balance. However, a study published in Proceedings of the ...
