For the first time and with help from artificial intelligence, researchers have conducted a comprehensive study of global floating algae and found that blooms are expanding across the ocean. 

Research shows that allowing natural vegetation to grow back in mountainous areas and on steep slopes and moving production to more fertile areas will both reduce climate emissions and increase biodiversity.

Marine animals, such as the extremely simple flatworm Trichoplax, are ideal model organisms for studying the early evolutionary origins of animal life processes.

The study, published in the journal Science Advances, highlights the importance of climate policies in reversing biodiversity loss across the planet, and points to amphibians as the group of vertebrates particularly affected by the combined effects of multiple threats.

Rice University biologist Amy Dunham has spent decades studying the mountainous rainforests of Madagascar’s Ranomafana National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site that was designated a national park in 1991.

More than 2500 plant species have the potential to invade the Arctic at the expense of the species that belong there. 

Seventy percent of soils in Europe are contaminated with pesticides. 

European coastal areas are under increasing pressure. 

A new study suggests the world’s oxygen depleted seas may have a chance of returning to higher oxygen concentrations in the centuries to come, despite our increasingly warming climate.

Colorado’s warm and dry winters have tipped the balance in a long-running ecological tug-of-war.
