When cruise ships lumber into Key West’s shallow harbor, they can sometimes churn up a storm of sediment more potent than a hurricane, new monitoring by the city shows. A year’s worth of tracking by ...

Durham University scientists have made a groundbreaking discovery in marine geoscience, revealing unprecedented insights into ...

Recently, a research team led by Professor Shuxiao Wang from the School of Environment at Tsinghua University integrated a ...

An international team of scientists set sail on the Schmidt Ocean Institute’s Falkor (too) research vessel in September to ...

These sediments are nitrate sinks (average 0.16 mmol m−2 d−1) and have denitrification rates (average 0.76 mmol m−2 d−1) that are comparable to those in coastal marine sediments. The deeply oxygenated ...

Microbial activity in marine sediment acts as a barrier that generally prevents methane from escaping. However, a survey from the Baltic Sea suggests that in many locations the microbial ...

Radiolabelled tracers can help understand how microplastics get contaminated by organic pollutants and how they transfer such contaminants to marine organisms. Similarly, the study of natural archives ...
