Endangered basking sharks rely on the ocean twilight zone during long-distance migrations

Endangered basking sharks rely on the ocean twilight zone during long-distance migrations Lisa Lock Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Endangered basking sharks aren't fasting during long-distance migrations. A new study led by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution shows that they may be foraging along the way, and in much deeper areas of the ocean than previously thought. As filter feeders, this species is most often observed close to the surface, especially in waters off of...

Climate-based tool predicts coral bleaching months in advance, offering critical lead time for reef protection

Researchers at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) have developed a new method to predict coral bleaching five to six months before it occurs, giving reef managers valuable time to protect vulnerable ecosystems. In the new study, "Climate modes can be leveraged to forecast coral bleaching months in advance," published in Communications Earth & Environment, researchers demonstrate that coral bleaching on the Caribbean island of Curaçao occurs when three major climate patterns in...

Scientists lose critical climate record as ocean observatory will go dark under Trump funding cuts

Scientists lose critical climate record as ocean observatory will go dark under Trump funding cuts Andrew Zinin Lead Editor A portion of one of the most ambitious ocean monitoring networks ever built will go dark this month when scientists board a research vessel and motor off the Oregon coast to pull a research buoy from deep out of the Pacific. The buoy 80 meters (260 feet) below the water's surface will be removed June 16 from the Ocean Observatories Initiative—a network of more than 900...
