Marine organisms play a crucial role in the global carbon cycle. Phytoplankton absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and sequester it in organic matter that sinks to the deep ocean where it can be ...
A new study has, for the first time, recorded and measured just how fast microplastics move through the gut passage of a key ...

Oceans are losing their ability to absorb carbon as microplastics surge
The ocean has long acted as a stabilizing force in the climate system, quietly drawing carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere ...
A group of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) researchers and engineers have developed and tested an innovative new system for sampling small planktonic larvae in coastal ocean waters and ...
Our collection includes the unique CalCOFI zooplankton samples, an unparalleled time series study of a major ocean region (the California Current System) that is in its seventh decade. The CalCOFI ...
In the ocean, organic particles from the sunlit surface water sink to the bottom. This process is an important part of the biological carbon pump. It binds carbon dioxide (CO 2) from the atmosphere ...
