🌊🔍 "Atlantic current could shut down, say scientists." Because, you know, a giant ocean conveyor slowing down is just an overhyped sequel to "The Day After Tomorrow." But hey, at least we're not sure yet, so let's keep those 🥶 parkas on standby, just in case!

The Chambered Nautilus is one of the oldest surviving marine species on Earth, with a lineage that dates back more than 500 million years. Long before dinosaurs existed, these creatures were already drifting through ancient oceans, and remarkably, they have changed very little since then.
Unlike octopuses or squids, the nautilus retains an external shell, divided into chambers that help control buoyancy.

DOLPHINS’ WHISTLES: NOT JUST NAMES, NEW RESEARCH SUGGESTS
New research from Sarasota, Florida suggests dolphin whistles are more complex than just names. Scientists found shared sounds used for more than identification.

Dolphins use more than just 'names' in their calls. New research from Sarasota shows they have shared whistles for different communication needs.

[As a US naturalized citizen, ‘Travels with Charley’ is one of my favourite travel/Americana books (just behind Least Heat Moon’s ‘Blue Highways’), storytelling supreme, especially with Steinbeck’s personal situation at the time; this building on that exploration and observation - including ‘Log from the Sea of Cortez’ - is truly a joy to see]

🌊 A tsunami may cross an entire ocean without roaring. It travels not as a wall, but as a whisper of imbalance seeking restoration.

👏 Congrats to Danai Filippou, IMPRS-ESM PhD candidate in the group of @TatianaIlyina, for winning the best poster award at the 23rd Swiss Climate Summer School in Ascona! 🏆
Her work, “Ocean Compound Extreme Events Under Emission Reduction and Negative CO₂ Pathways”, explores how compound extremes, like marine heatwaves combined with #acidification or low oxygen extremes, evolve under emission cuts and net-negative CO₂.
Have you been to a #SummerSchool this year?

Season 1 Episode 9: Bioluminescence: The Soft Glow of the Deep Sea, With Dr Steve Haddock
[Technically this was episode 7 and @arielkroon messed up her numbering, but we're going to pretend that didn't happen]
ou don't have to be a solarpunk—or a lunarpunk—to dream of bioluminescence, from twinkling phytoplankton to glowing lamps, phosphorescent fungi, and jellyfish lit up like space ships. To honor those dreams, Christina talked to Dr. Steve Haddock, Senior Scientist at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) and leading expert on the things that glow, flash, and train headlights through the dark waters of the deep sea. Join us for this conversation about how bioluminescence works, what critters are capable of it and what they use it for, and whether or not our visions of bioluminescent street lamps stand a chance of coming true.
You can also follow Steve Haddock on X @beroe and learn more about bioluminescence at https://biolum.eemb.ucsb.edu/.

So far, eight females from two #seal colonies have filmed almost 90 hours of footage across more than 500km, helping #scientists to #map 5,000 sq km of #habitat. The #SeaLions have mapped rocky reefs and seagrass meadows along the continental shelf, and shown humans the places that are important to them.
With that information, #conservationists will have much clearer ideas on how to protect the country’s only endemic seal.
Goldsworthy, of the South #Australian #Research and Development Institute #SARDI, has been studying the fast-disappearing #MarineMammal for 25 years. But he says the cameras are a gamechanger.
“Information has been so elusive, because they’re feeding at the bottom of the sea,” he said. “Now we get this amazing, exquisite detail. They’re giving us a window into their world that we haven’t had before.
“Just like humans know our streets, the sea lions know the sea bed in intimate detail for hundreds of kilometres and they build up this knowledge over time. They have a mental map of their environment and they are leading you to places of profound significance for them.”

🌊🔬 Moorings are measurement platforms composed of an anchor, sensors and buoys which are vertically aligned & measure the properties of seawater (temperature, salinity, current velocity) and collect sediment particles.

7% ----> 25% Of The Ocean Floor Mapped From 2017 (Seabed 2030)

“🗺 Did you know that in 2017, only 6% of the world’s seafloor had been mapped to modern standards? Considering the ocean spans some 70% of the Earth’s surface, that’s a significant gap!
But over the past five years since Seabed 2030 launched, we’ve been able to map almost 25% of the ocean floor.
By discovering more about the seabed, we gain a greater understanding of our environment and can ensure its protection. After all, we can’t protect what we don’t know…”
