Krill Provide Insights Into How Marine Species Can Adapt to Warmer Waters

September 10, 2024

Leo Blanco Bercial

A research team led by Uppsala University has discovered how Northern krill genetically adapt to climate change, providing key insights for protecting marine ecosystems. The study highlights the importance of understanding krill adaptation to predict the resilience of ocean populations.

Moran monitors coral

ASU PhD candidate Tom Moran came to BIOS to study nitric oxide production in corals but soon joined projects on coral thermal stress and nitrogen cycling in Bermuda’s mangroves. As his fieldwork concludes and coral research continues, Moran is exploring how to connect these themes, focusing on how climate change impacts the resilience of both coral reefs and mangroves, essential to coastal ecosystems.

Scientist Paper Highlights Need for More International Policy Focus on the Air-Ocean Nexus

April 30, 2024

Even casual observers of environmental science understand the fundamental interconnection between atmospheric conditions and the well-being of marine ecosystems. What happens in the atmosphere inevitably finds its way into the ocean and, vice versa, the outcomes of deep ocean processes eventually bubble up to the surface and into the air above. Yet, the authors of a recently published paper point out, one would be hard-pressed to find these connections between the air and ocean represented adequately – if at all – in international environmental policies and regulations.
