Drone helps researchers find fresh water in the sea

The people of Easter Island appeared to drink directly from the sea, European explorers reported in the late 1700s. And today, you can see animals—most famously horses—do the same thing. What's going on?

NASA’s Oceans Melting Greenland mission leaves for its last field trip

OMG is completing a six-year mission that is helping to answer how fast sea level is going to rise in the next five, 10, or 50 years.

Study: Ocean current system seems to be approaching a tipping point

A collapse of this ocean current system, which has so far not been considered likely under the current levels of global warming will therefore have severe consequences on global and especially European weather and climate.

Research: Plastic pollution and ocean acidification reduce Antarctic krill development

Antarctic krill are especially vulnerable to these environmental stressors due to their close association with sea ice

Port Fourchon: Scientists pinpoint how to manage sediment to prevent land loss

The southernmost port in Louisiana is a key place for the U.S. energy industry, but also one of the most vulnerable places in the nation.

Russian Arctic warming leads to major ice loss

Сonditions in the Arctic Ocean are becoming more like those in the North Atlantic, which is much warmer.
