New research shows that marine heat waves can reshape ocean food webs, which in turn can slow the transport of carbon to the deep sea and hamper the ocean's ability to buffer against climate change.

Marine heat waves in the northeast Pacific Ocean create ongoing and complex disruptions of the ocean food web that may benefit some species but threaten the future of many others, a new study has ...

Warming Pacific waters and El Niño could disrupt California marine food webs, raising risks for seabirds, fisheries and ...

Octopus, squid, and cuttlefish aid marine food webs and carbon storage, revealing how climate change reshapes oceans and ...

Robotic floats can continuously collect detailed data about ocean conditions. A new study led by MBARI researchers from the Global Ocean Biogeochemistry Array project—with an interdisciplinary team of ...

To mitigate climate change, human-made carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions must be reduced as quickly and drastically as possible. Additionally, some of the CO2 already emitted needs to be safely removed ...

Ocean warming and ocean acidification driven by climate change decrease the nutritional quality of some marine organisms, causing disruptions to the ocean food web. This is the main conclusion of a ...

The ocean is heating up—in some places, faster than scientists once thought possible. For the fish, crustaceans and plankton that underpin life in the sea, this means habitats will shift, food ...
