If you’ve ever thought you may be running a temperature yet couldn’t find a thermometer, you aren’t alone. 

They’re small, but they’re mighty. From producing oxygen we breathe to soaking up carbon we emit to feeding fish we eat, tiny phytoplankton are a crucial part of ocean ecosystems and essential to life as we know it on Earth. 

New research predicts how spawning habitat in the Bering Sea may shift over the coming century of climate change.

Paving the way for sustainable construction with self-healing, self-sensing, and hydrophobic concrete.

Student scientists successfully collected coral egg and sperm bundles to test on a redesigned cryo freezing device at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa’s Hawaiʻi Institute of Marine Biology (HIMB) on Moku o Loʻe (Coconut Island) in the evening of June 19, marking a crucial step in saving the species threatened by climate change and pollution.

A team of chemists from MIT and Duke University has discovered a counterintuitive way to make polymers stronger: introduce a few weaker bonds into the material.

With a dayside temperature of roughly 380 kelvins (about 225 degrees Fahrenheit), TRAPPIST-1 c is now the coolest rocky exoplanet ever characterized based on thermal emission.

After three consecutive years of La Niña, spring 2023 saw the return of El Niño—a natural climate phenomenon characterized by the presence of warmer than normal sea surface temperatures (and higher sea levels) in the central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean.

In a recent study, published in Science Advances Dr. Federico Riva, Dr. Caio Graco-Roza et al. lay out a path to make this happen, and they're hopeful about the potential for breakthroughs in ecology and conservation biology.

Researchers from Germany and Peru jointly develop new adaptation strategies to the impacts of climate change on the Humboldt upwelling area off the Peruvian coast.
