Flinders University oceanography experts have described a new kind of cyclone in the Indian Ocean near Sumatra after observing satellite surface winds in the region.

The large-scale wind farms can strongly influence marine primary production as well as the oxygen levels in and beyond the wind farm areas.

With the Arctic Ocean being twice as sensitive to rapid warming than the global average, evaporation and subsequent changes to the hydrological cycle over northern Eurasia will become even more pronounced in the years to come.

Understanding transport and transformation processes within the carbon cycle is essential to creating global carbon dioxide budgets and therefore also projections for global warming.

Researchers from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, estimated the possible climatic impact of the leaked methane

Tectonic stress in Japan's Nankai subduction zone is less than expected

Mechanical devices are increasingly being considered as a potential way to help address plastic pollution found globally in marine environments.

New research reveals nearly two per cent of commercial fishing gear ends ups in our world's oceans each year.

After a near two-year "Microbiome" mission around the world, scientists had gathered thousands of samples of marine micro-organisms in a bid to better understand ocean plankton and pollution.

NASA's Sub-Mesoscale Ocean Dynamics Experiment (S-MODE) is converging on a patch of sea 110 nautical miles off the coast of San Francisco.

An international team of researchers have sounded new alarm bells about the changing chemistry of the western region of the Arctic Ocean after discovering acidity levels increasing three to four times faster than ocean waters elsewhere.

The Group will support Plastic Odyssey on its three-year voyage to the world's most plastic-polluted countries.
