  1. Ocean's Unseen Commuters: Remoras Hitch a Ride on Giants

    See how remora fish attach to whales for long ocean trips. Learn about this unique animal behavior and why it matters.

  2. Diving in #newquay bay yesterday. Thinking Amphorina Farrani, the #nudibranchs are slowly appearing on the northern coast of #cornwall. This was tricky to photo, digging into the small animal turf. Ocean temperature knocking around the 12-13 degree mark but feeling a bit more summery. #oceanlife #freedive #snorkeling

  3. Sea Urchin Offspring Gain Edge from Maternal Provisioning of Plastid Components

    How do sea urchin eggs help baby larvae survive? New research from April 2026 shows mothers pass on special nutrients to help their babies grow better.

  4. Scientists found that mother sea urchins give their eggs special parts that help babies survive. This is a new discovery that shows babies have more energy than we thought before.

  5. This is Ceratosoma trilobatum in the act of oviposition—laying a delicate egg ribbon as it’s carefully deposited onto the substrate. You can see the fresh spiral forming.

  6. 🌊🔥 Oh no, the mighty great white #sharks, apex predators of the sea, are facing a midlife crisis because the water heater is stuck on high! 😱 The #Yale geniuses have cracked the code: it turns out even sharks can't handle a little tropical vacation. Next up: how #penguins are coping with cold feet. 🐧❄️

  7. Deep-Sea Predators Master Dual Survival: Lures Serve Both Hunger and Heart

    How do anglerfish use their lures to survive? New research shows these deep-sea fish use light to find both food and mates in the dark ocean.

  8. Scientists studied over 100 anglerfish species to learn how they survive. Their lures are 72 million years old and work better than we thought.

    🦈 Some scars form in hunts, others in warming and changing seas. Together they reveal where sharks endure and where oceans are under strain. Drift back to the original post in this thread to follow the full story.

  14. MALE OCTOPUS REPRODUCTIVE HABITS RAISE QUESTIONS ABOUT SPECIALIZED ARM USAGE

    Male octopuses use a special arm called the hectocotylus for sperm delivery. This arm usage affects their survival after mating.

  15. All week we are taking a look at armor throughout the animal world! Today: The mantis shrimp packs one of the most powerful punches in the animal kingdom. How does it survive the enormous force that it creates when it clickity-clacks? #science #biology #oceanlife #mantisshrimp #oceanography

  16. There is nothing quite like being surrounded by dozens of sharks in the Graveyard of the Atlantic.

    These sand tiger sharks patrol the North Carolina shipwrecks with an eerie, stealthy movement that is absolutely mesmerizing to watch up close.

  17. A year long algal bloom in South Australia has killed millions of marine animals and damaged ecosystems. When leaders ignore climate change and protect polluters, nature pays the price. Environmental destruction is not an accident, it is the result of greed and weak accountability.

  18. We collect retired kitesurf sails — each one marked by sun, salt, and countless sessions at sea. The material is carefully cleaned, inspected, and selected panel by panel for strength, color, and character.

    Then comes the transformation: precision cutting, reinforced stitching, and functional design shaped by the original aerodynamics of the kite. Nothing is wasted — every curve and seam finds new purpose.

    Japan hauls rare earth-rich mud from deep sea in bold test mission

    "Japan’s own planners acknowledge the uncertainties. Jan briefings on the test mining plan stressed that, However, key aspects remain unknown, including the quality of the minerals and the economics of lifting and processing such vast volumes of mud. Mining the mud had previously been seen as too expensive compared with land-based deposits, and even with new technology, the cost of pumping, dewatering and refining the material at scale is still an open question. Analysts also point out that any move toward commercial production will face intense scrutiny from environmental regulators and coastal communities, who want clearer evidence on how sediment plumes, noise and habitat disruption will affect #DeepOcean #ecosystems around the site."
