Large Arctic rivers transport substantial amounts of freshwater, carbon (C), and nutrients from land to the Arctic Ocean and play an important role in continental-ocean biogeochemical coupling. Althou...
Cryopreservation of marine species is a key tool for biodiversity conservation, population management, and the advance of aquaculture and biological research. Currently exist significant progress in t...
Heterotrophic bacteria process a large fraction of the polysaccharides produced by phytoplankton in the surface ocean. Some of these polysaccharides are taken up by "selfish" bacteria, which bind, par...
Ocean iron fertilization (OIF) is being discussed as a potential carbon dioxide removal (CDR) strategy1. Yet the trade-offs between climate benefits and ecological costs remain poorly understood2-4. H...
Deep-sea mining in polymetallic nodule areas poses significant risks to the marine carbon sink. This study investigated the vertical distribution and three-dimensional fluorescence spectral characteri...
Microplastic pollution is an increasing threat to marine ecosystems worldwide. Here we present a detailed particle-level analysis of a unique long-term dataset (Bermúdez, 2025) containing 16,179 indiv...
We characterized the lithological, solid-phase geochemical, and rock magnetic properties of sediment cores from subpermafrost strata on the Alaska North Slope collected as part of the U.S. Department ...
Environmental DNA (eDNA) has revolutionized biodiversity monitoring by enabling species detection from microbes to megafauna without direct observation or capture. Yet most marine eDNA collection syst...
Deep-learning emulators have emerged as a promising approach for reducing the computational cost of Earth System Models while potentially improving forecasting skill. Here, we demonstrate the successf...
Since the year 2000, oceanic research has seen a surge in data collection, with approximately 500,000 sets of measurements for a single variable (e.g., temperature) recorded annually. Yet, further adv...
Bioluminescent organisms represent a largely untapped resource at the interface of biodiversity, bioentrepreneurship, and sustainable ecotourism. Although bioluminescence is well studied biologically,...
"Rotten" sea ice, ice in an advanced stage of melt, represents an important but understudied habitat in the rapidly changing Arctic. As Arctic warming accelerates, this late-season ice type will becom...
In the context of global biodiversity decline, the monitoring and assessment of marine biodiversity have gained increasing importance. Thaliacea, a group of filter-feeding gelatinous zooplankton, play...
Larval migration plays an essential role in determining the distribution and evolution of invertebrate animals endemic to hydrothermal vents-disjunct and ephemeral habitats in the deep sea. However, t...
Antarctic glacial bays are important, productive regions of the Southern Ocean. Certain glacial bays, including our research area, Admiralty Bay, are less favorable for phytoplankton growth due to win...
The functioning of high-diversity ecosystems, such as coral reefs, is intrinsically tied to the integrity and efficiency of the trophic pathways within these systems. Coral reef productivity depends, ...
The adoption of exhaust gas cleaning systems (scrubbers) in maritime transport generates a complex metal-laden washwater that may pose a noteworthy threat to marine ecosystems. This study assessed the...
This study provides the first basin-scale assessment of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) in zooplankton collected from the central-southern Mediterranean Sea....
Emerging organic contaminants (EOCs), including per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and antibiotics, persist i...
We apply ordinal-pattern analysis and permutation entropy (PE) to satellite-derived chlorophyll-a (Chl-a), sea surface temperature (SST), and mixed-layer depth (MLD) data to investigate the spatiotemp...
