Understanding how nature programs specific functions can help researchers design synthetic systems that perform similar tasks.

VANCOUVER – The City of Vancouver has revealed its draft concept design for a transformation of the city’s West End waterfront and is looking for public feedback.

BRUSSELS, Nov 7 (Reuters) - On a crisp, wintry day on Belgium's far-western coast, Gunther Vanbleu rides his draft horse down the sandy beach and into the shallow waters.

A total of 589,112 endangered sea turtle hatchlings, including 445,592 loggerheads and 143,520 green turtles, have emerged from their eggs and made their way to the sea on the 20 beaches along Türkiye’s southern coast this year, according to local experts.

A new study reveals the critical role of oceanic salt distribution in regulating global climate, linking historical cooling periods such as the Little Ice Age to changes in ocean salinity and circulation.

Orsted’s cancellation of two big New Jersey wind projects raises questions about the way the Biden administration is approaching renewable energy.

Sailors in the latest edition of The Ocean Race faced whipping winds, fluctuating temperatures, and some of the world’s most famously wild seas — and on one race leg, also collected samples for valuable findings about the spread of bacteria in Earth’s rapidly warming oceans.

As oceans waves rise and fall, they apply forces to the sea floor below and generate seismic waves. These seismic waves are so powerful and widespread that they show up as a steady thrum on seismographs, the same instruments used to monitor and study earthquakes.

Record year for ocean heatwaves, with wide-scale repercussions

Last week, the government published the National Coastal Change Management Strategy to deal with loss of land due to coastal erosion, flooding and sea level rise.

Nova Scotia Environment and Climate Change Minister Tim Halman says a recent "clarification" to staff about his department's wetlands policy is based on the need for more housing in the province.

National Trust is accused of 'senseless vandalism' after ordering demolition of tourist spot over fears it would fall into the sea due to erosion

A new study warns the Earth's climate is on track to warm significantly more than shown by the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) projections.

During the Holocene epoch, which began around 11,700 years ago, coastlines globally retreated due to thousands of years of rising sea levels. However, a team of researchers at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) found this was not true for Singapore's coasts.

A wildly innovative turbine that could halve the cost of offshore wind is set to go into testing in Norway. The 19-m (62-ft), 30-kW, contra-rotating vertical-axis turbine is a prototype of a design that could scale to unprecedented size and power.

OKITIPUPA, Nigeria (AP) – It was the dead of night when the ship caught fire, Patrick Aganyebi remembers, but the flames made it seem as bright as day.

For millions of years, one of the largest power law distributions known in nature has governed marine life -- that's until humans came along.

Minister for the Environment Eamon Ryan has said the country needs to recognise the reality that coastal erosion will impact thousands of homes across Ireland.

There is growing consensus that our planet is likely to pass the 1.5℃ warming threshold. Research even suggests global warming will temporarily exceed the 2℃ threshold, if atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂) peaks at levels beyond what was anticipated.

In French Polynesia, an ancient practice puts everyone in charge of protecting the sea.

It’s just not the dynamics of the ocean that needs to be considered when dealing with coastal erosion – the dynamics of a community are equally as important.

A new ICM-CSIC study unveils that marine debris on India's southeast coast is increasingly facilitating the colonization of invasive species, posing a significant threat to the ecological balance of the region’s marine system.
