Here's why sunscreen is harmful to seawater

Two of the planet's most urgent environmental stressors have the potential to affect the development and reproductive production of plants found along the world's coasts, according to new research.

Global warming is causing sea levels to rise, which is altering ecosystems. Scientists assumed that the tidal wetlands present in estuaries could create less methane, a strong greenhouse gas because the increased influx of seawater renders these habitats less hospitable to methane-producing microorganisms.

Researchers use historic hot springs to investigate the beginnings of life on Earth.

The hydrate desalination technique is a low-energy solution that may be used to treat large quantities of brine or polluted water.

According to new research published in Nature, mineral forms of iron play an important role in regulating the cycling of this bio-essential nutrient in the ocean.

Researchers discovered a new species of marine cryptofauna in the Florida Keys. The majority of the biodiversity in the ocean is made up of microscopic, hidden species known as cryptofauna. There are 15 species of Gnathia in the region, including the nearly three-millimetre-long isopod.

A new species of marine cryptofauna has been found in the Florida Keys by an international team of researchers from the University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Science and the Water Research Group from the Unit for Environmental Sciences and Management at the North-West University in South Africa. Most of the biodiversity in the ocean is made up of tiny, covert organisms called cryptofauna.

According to a new paper published in Genome Biology and Evolution by Oxford University Press, the annulated sea snake, a species of venomous snake found in ocean waters around Australia and Asia, appears to have evolved to see an extended palette of colours after its ancestors lost that ability in response to changing environments.

Researchers from all around the world have been working for years to find effective techniques to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as it continues to accumulate in the planet's atmosphere
