The Ocean Cleanup is an international non-profit project with the mission of ridding the world’s oceans of plastic

First-ever NOAA Geoplatform tool shows shallow coral reef ecosystem trends

TenneT, in collaboration with contractor Equans/Smulders, has placed several artificial reefs near the offshore transformer platform Hollandse Kust (west Alpha) to gain further knowledge about nature-inclusive construction.

Bacteria discharged to the oceans in sewage and wastewater thrive on the biofilms that form on plastic waste. This may be leading to the somewhat unanticipated problem of antimicrobial resistance.

Funding from President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law will bolster NOAA efforts to address marine debris in U.S. waterways, the ocean and Great Lakes

According to scientists, the ocean's capacity to remove and store carbon dioxide from the atmosphere could be enhanced by various means, including the addition of alkaline substances

Ocean Networks Canada (ONC) has recorded the highest daily average summertime temperatures at two of its seafloor observatory sites in the northeast Pacific Ocean since continuous live monitoring started there in 2009.

New research finds that simultaneously reducing land- and sea-based human impacts supports coral reef persistence in our changing climate.

Plastic waste found at a depth of 9,600 meters

The ocean's color has changed significantly over the last 20 years, and the global trend is likely a consequence of human-induced climate change, report scientists at MIT, the National Oceanography Center in the U.K., and elsewhere.

Data will be collected to monitor the state of the oceans' health using the Group’s proprietary PRY-CAM technology.
