As Arctic permafrost thaws, rivers are carrying increasing amounts of ancient carbon into the ocean. This shift could ...

A new study, led by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) and Columbia University, identifies a diverse set of ...

The movement of carbon between the atmosphere, oceans and continents -- or carbon cycle -- regulates Earth's climate, with the ocean playing a major role in carbon sequestration. A new study finds ...

In the midst of the COVID pandemic, scientists embarked on an ambitious research expedition to the North Atlantic to investigate the inner workings of the ocean’s carbon cycle. A series of storms ...

The Earth’s oceans play a vital role in the carbon cycle, making it imperative that we understand marine biological activity enough to predict how our planet will react to the extra 25 000 million ...

Scientists discovered massive volcanic rubble, breccia, on the South Atlantic seabed. This porous rock traps far more carbon ...

When it comes to diatoms that live in the ocean, new research suggests that photosynthesis is not the only strategy for accumulating carbon. Instead, these single-celled plankton are also building ...

In the midst of the COVID pandemic, scientists embarked on an ambitious research expedition to the North Atlantic to investigate the inner workings of the ocean's carbon cycle. A series of storms ...

An area of Alaskan permafrost the size of Greece is thawing, which scientists warn could alter the global carbon cycle and ...

Dr Benjamin Harris receives funding from the Convex Seascape Survey. He works for the University of Exeter. Mara Fischer receives funding for her PhD research from the Convex Seascape Survey. Tara ...

Much of the organic carbon sinking into the deep ocean is carried by tiny organic particles known as marine snow. (Santa Barbara, Calif.) — In the midst of the COVID pandemic, scientists embarked on ...
