While it is well known that climate change is heating the world's oceans, it was thought that the deep sea was safe from its effects—until now. Researchers have discovered that a rapidly warming part ...
Warmer Atlantic water from near Greenland is heating up the depths of the Arctic Ocean, which was previously thought of as one of the few places not significantly affected by climate change. The sea ...
The lush greenery of the Amazon rainforest is often called the “lungs of the planet,” but really land plants are just half of the equation. The other lung dwells in the sea. Single-celled ...

In the cold and flat expanses of the Arctic, geopolitics, resources and climate issues are sewn deeply into the region’s permafrost. The Arctic is an area of land and water in the northernmost regions ...
Chinese scientists have become the first to visit one of Earth’s most remote and geologically intriguing realms: an underwater volcanic ridge in the Arctic Ocean. The expedition, which concluded late ...
Climate change and the associated rising temperatures are melting more and more frozen ground in the Arctic. This dissolved matter contains large amounts of organic carbon which is flowing into the ...
New study shows that 16 percent of the Arctic Ocean’s organic carbon comes from terrestrial sources, such as thawing permafrost and eroding coastlines. Climate change and the associated rising ...
What did the Arctic look like in the distant past? The answer carries significant implications for understanding how it will change in the future in the context of human-driven global warming. Yet ...
Scientists have found something surprising in the Arctic ice — tiny pieces of space dust that help them understand how Earth's climate is changing. It comes from asteroids and comets, and falls to ...
As the Arctic Ocean loses its sea ice due to climate change, sunlight penetrates deeper into the water and encourages the growth of tiny plant-like organisms (phytoplankton). But to thrive, they need ...
