Ancient fossils show how much warming tropical oceans can handle before plankton collapse, offering clues about future ...

Researchers have developed soft yet durable materials that glow in response to mechanical stress, such as compression, stretching or twisting. The materials derive their luminescence from ...

New geological data indicate that marine life is somewhat resilient to warming in the tropics. Chris Fokkema, Earth scientist at Utrecht University, discovered that tropical algae were largely ...

Whether they're in machines, buildings or aircraft, it's always helpful to know if components are undergoing mechanical stress. A new material could quickly and easily let inspection personnel know, ...

A method for rapidly screening biotoxins produced by algae could help speed up the discovery of useful compounds. Single-celled algae with a pair of hair-like appendages, dinoflagellates produce large ...

Harmful algal blooms (HABs), characterized by the proliferation of detrimental algae and cyanobacteria, occur worldwide. HABs include any event causing adverse effects on human health, socioeconomic ...
