Ukrainians in Antarctica will make souvenirs from plastic waste

Antarctica has strict rules for waste management: a person does not have to leave behind any garbage.

Study: Extreme sea levels to become much more common

Global warming will cause extreme sea levels to occur almost every year by the end of the century, impacting major coastlines worldwide, according to new research from an international team of scientists.

Increased snowfall will offset sea level rise from melting Antarctic ice sheet

Using modern methods to calculate projected changes to sea levels, researchers discovered that the two ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica respond differently, reflecting their very distinct local climates.

Kongsberg Maritime joins global ocean floor mapping initiative

The Nippon Foundation-GEBCO Seabed 2030 Project and Kongsberg Maritime enter partnership as the race for a complete map of the world’s seabed accelerates

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.

High concentrations of ‘forever’ chemicals being released from ice melt into the Arctic Ocean

The research has shown these chemicals have traveled not by sea, but through the atmosphere, where they accumulate in Arctic sea ice.

Low-oxygen waters off Washington, Oregon coasts risk becoming large “dead zones”

Oceanic measurements collected during a scientific cruise on NOAA ship Ronald H. Brown last week confirmed that a large area of poorly oxygenated water (known as hypoxia) is growing off the coast of Washington and Oregon.
