Texas A&M AgriLife Research studies show shiner and minnow populations could provide early signs of water depletion, drought, and other environmental changes.

Being common is rather unusual. It’s far more common for a species to be rare, spending its existence in small densities throughout its range.

Researchers have predicted that expanding the Aransas Pass — the marine pass between Mustang Island and Saint Joseph Island, offshore from the town of Aransas Pass, Texas — would increase the native red drum fish population.

In a win-win for commercial fisheries and marine wildlife, researchers have found that using lighted nets greatly reduced accidental bycatch of sharks, rays, sea turtles, and unwanted finfish.

The English Channel prevents many rockpool species "making the jump" from Europe to the UK, new research shows.

New NOAA Fisheries study shows that tiger sharks are migrating into northern latitudes earlier and expanding their movements further north due to ocean warming.

Heat waves—like the one that blistered the Pacific Northwest last June—also occur underwater. 

Africa’s most lauded Indigenous-owned eco-lodge, Il Ngwesi — which hosts rich tourists amid giraffes, elephants, and rhinos above a watering hole on the Laikipia plateau near Mount Kenya — is facing the toughtest times in its 25-year history.

Rivers need water — a fact that may seem ridiculously obvious, but in times of increasing water development, drought and climate change, the quantity of natural streamflow that remains in river channels is coming into question, especially in the Colorado River basin. 

A dark, rainy spring gave way to a vast, long-lived phytoplankton bloom off the coast of Brazil.
