“We are seeing ‘phase shifts,’ where reefs once dominated by corals are being taken over by zoantharians... Understanding how they spread helps us forecast what the reefs of the future will look like.”

Analysis of seawater for DNA of rare and endangered hammerhead sharks has been used to infer their presence or absence at multiple locations throughout their range. No sharks were captured or observed; accuracy of the inferred distributions depends on the presumed degradation of environmental DNA in hours or days.

🐟💥 When the herring disappeared, everything changed.
From boom to collapse.
From full nets to empty seas.

🇳🇴 🇮🇸 🇫🇴 🇷🇺 Coastal communities paid the price — and the sea sent a clear warning.

Australia’s oyster industry has been devastated by a virus linked to warmer water—wiping out entire crops in days.

Now, researchers may have found a way to save the precarious industry: a vaccine

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 built. 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 

https://onlinemarketingscoops.com/2025/11/22/worlds-longest-underwater-cave/

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.
