Water mass framework reveals consistencies in oxygen projections within water masses and uncertainties in their spatial redistribution Models which best match observations yield more precise proj...

Depth-integrated chlorophyll and NPP have increased in the Bay of Bengal and western Arabian Sea, but decreased in the eastern Arabian Sea There is no strong positive or negative correlation betw...

On a day that many might be headed to the beach, take a moment to consider some of the widespread impacts of all of that plastic, and the ongoing efforts to clean it up.

Models have long predicted, and satellites have observed, stratospheric cooling from rising anthropogenic carbon dioxide, yet its magnitude and structure have lacked a robust theoretical explanation —...

Abstract. Accurate assessment of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and their redistribution among the atmosphere, ocean, and terrestrial biosphere in a changing climate is critical to bette...

Argentina’s beef consumption has fallen to its lowest level in two decades as soaring prices and weakening purchasing power push many families to replace beef with cheaper proteins like chicken and po...

A summer chlorophyll-a spatial contrast is observed in the Bay of Bengal, with elevated southern concentrations contrasting northern lows Local summer monsoon winds drive upwelling through Ekman ...

C:N:P ratios in particulate organic matter (POM) and NO3− ${\text{NO}}_{3}^{-}$:PO43− ${\mathrm{P}\mathrm{O}}_{4}^{3-}$ ratio follow similar seasonal patterns, peaking during periods of nutrient e...

20 January 2026 / Kiel. The renewal of deep waters in the North Atlantic has slowed markedly over the past three decades. This is shown by a new study from the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Resear...

Nature Geoscience - Recurrent phytoplankton blooms in the western Indian Subantarctic Zone are largely supported by iron-rich water transported into the region by the Agulhas Current, according to...

Abstract. Ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) aims to transfer carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere to the ocean by increasing the capacity of seawater to store CO2. The potential effects of OAE-in...

The Indian summer monsoon plays a key part in influencing marine life in the Bay of Bengal. Palaeoceanographic records reveal that both extremely weak and strong monsoon phases led to declines in mari...

Nature Geoscience - Changes in terrestrial runoff into the Bay of Bengal during both extremely weak and strong Indian summer monsoon phases since the Last Glacial Maximum caused a collapse in...

Communications Earth & Environment - Olivine-based ocean alkalinity enhancement can disrupt phytoplankton communities, whereas sodium hydroxide has a negligible impact on plankton, according to...
