A study shows that more frequent and severe El Niño events could increase the local extinction risk of female South American sea lions in Peru by 83.4% over 50 years.
Computer simulations show that under high greenhouse gas emissions, marine heatwaves could become almost permanent across most oceans by 2070. These extreme thermal spikes speed up energy loss and amplify the damage of steady ocean warming on marine food webs.
Marine conservation hotspots change location completely depending on whether researchers tally total bird numbers or measure species diversity. A single location almost never protects both.
Marine macrogenomics pools genetic data from whole communities and ancient seabed sediments to predict how warming oceans will disrupt marine life.
A review of historical data and models shows the Arabian Seas are warming unusually fast, causing oxygen-starved zones to swell. These extreme regional seas offer a natural test bed for understanding future tropical oceans.
By tracking an experimental cotton cross with three genetic screening methods, scientists flagged five candidate genes tied to surviving severe dry spells.
Tracking gaze during virtual journeys shows that eye movements reveal hidden mental doubts and predict changes of mind before subjects alter course.
A study in mice reveals that early contact with too much manganese triggers brain immune cells to destroy vital learning links, causing long-lasting memory problems in males.
Lab tests show gas bubbles stuck tightly to liquid metal drops in molten young worlds, dragging atmospheric elements down deep inside them.
Researchers built a shape-memory crystal that alters its nanoscale shape to boost light signals, detecting trace antibiotics in wastewater down to 471 parts per trillion.
