Oceanographers record the largest predation event ever observed in the ocean

There is power in numbers, or so the saying goes. But in the ocean, scientists are finding that fish that group together don't necessarily survive together. In some cases, the more fish there are, the larger a target they make for predators.

Coastline erosion can change your favorite beach. But it can also affect highways and buildings. Landsat, along with high-resolution data, can be used to model the past and predict the future of changes caused by sea level rise and coastal erosion.

Dr. Tamlin Pavelsky, NASA’s Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) Hydrology Science Lead, gives an overview of SWOT hydrology data products. Specifically, the Pixel Cloud (L2_HR_PIXC) netCDF, River (L2_HR_RiverSP) and Lake (L2_HR_LakeSP) Single Pass Vector shapefiles, and the Raster (L2_HR_Raster) netCDF products are discussed.

Mantle convection linked to seaway closure that transformed Earth's oceanographic circulation patterns

Continental drift is a concept familiar to many, referencing the movement of Earth's continents due to shifting tectonic plates over millions of years, splitting one globe-spanning supercontinent into the configuration we see today. Alongside this there have been smaller land mass movements that have opened seaways, affecting ocean circulation patterns and climate.

The Moon Has a Curious Effect on The Sounds Emanating From Coral Reefs

The Moon influences life here on Earth more than you might realize – and that includes shifting the sounds coming from coral reefs, which indicates changes in ecosystem activity, according to a new study.

Study Pinpoints Links Between Melting Arctic Ice and Summertime Extreme Weather in Europe - Inside Climate News

New research shows how last year’s warming melted ice in Greenland that increased flows of fresh, cold water into the North Atlantic, upsetting ocean currents in ways that lead to atmospheric changes.
