Research vessels, like the RV Weatherbird shown here, are the lifeblood of oceanography. Although we can now make many measurements by satellite, we can only "see" the surface centimeters of a world ocean that is kilometers deep, and we can then only infer what it is below. We still need direct measurements, and ships like this are how we do it. The Weatherbird is operated by the Florida Institute of Oceanography (FIO), a consortium of universities which is housed in the building I work in at the University of South Florida. A larger network of research ships comprises another consortium, the Universities National Oceanographic Laboratories, or UNOLS. FIO is struggling for state funding to operate their three vessels, and UNOLS is decommissioning ships faster than new ones are being build. Thus, the U.S.A. is ceding their dominance in ocean sciences to other nations. A 🧵

The World’s Longest Underwater Cave Is Even Longer Than We Realized
EyeEm Mobile GmbH/Getty Images The longest known underwater cave in the world is even longer than we thought. As of the start of this year, cave divers have mapped 524 kilometers (325.6 miles) of a subterranean water 'web' near Tulum, Mexico, called Sistema Ox Bel Ha – and there's more to go. The name Ox Bel Ha is derived from the Mayan language and translates to "Three Paths of Water".......Continue reading.... By Carly Cassella Source: ScienceAlert .

Decades into his career, marine biologist David Vaughan stumbled upon a method for growing coral faster than had previously been believed possible, a breakthrough that can add clean air to the planet, and has possible implications for treatment of cancer and tumors. Now he has a new lease on life and is determined not to retire until he can plant a million new corals.

🌊 The Portuguese man-o'-war (Physalia physalis) is not a jellyfish but a floating colony.
Scientists develop models to predict its arrival on Cantabrian coasts, combining ocean data and field experiments. This research aims to anticipate risks and study climate-driven changes in its distribution.

Ok, I have to stick my head above the parapet and say I'm impressed with NotebookLM; even the basic free version.
I work in marine sedimentology, but my background is purely biology, so I have a lot of knowledge gaps wrt what I do.
So I've uploaded PDFs on oceanography/sedimentology/PSA methodology/the blue economy etc, and can now interrogate my self-curated knowledge hub if I have a burning question.
🦈 Every scar on a shark tells a story of survival, struggle, and resilience. From predator bites to human impacts, these marks reveal hidden struggles of the ocean and help scientists track shark lives.
