🌊Mapping the Highways of the Sea🌍
New study featuring contributions from MGEL + global partners presents the first cross-taxa global map of marine megafauna migration.
Whales, turtles, seabirds & fish connect ocean regions—now, we can map those links.

A friend included this anti-acknowledgement section on her PhD thesis. She also added the proposition: “Systematic bullying and undermining of girls and women in STEM starts early on and is the reason why they do not stay in science and related fields.”
Absurd we still need to go through this

Hi - I'd like to share this story of what is happening at NOAA GFDL, where some of my colleagues and I worked until the mass firings at NOAA last week.
"...the birthplace of weather and climate forecasting"

NOAA firings hit the birthplace of weather and climate forecasting
Dismissed researchers were improving severe weather predictions

🚨 #NOAA is essential for weather forecasting, climate research, and public safety.
AGU stands with the scientific community in urging Congress to protect and strengthen NOAA, not dismantle it.
Our economy, environment, and safety depend on it.

Ecological erosion and expanding extinction risk of sharks and rays
The true state of ocean biodiversity is difficult to assess, and there are few global indicators to track the primary threat of overfishing. We calculated a 50-year Red List Index of extinction risk a...

Achieving net-zero climate targets requires substantial land for carbon dioxide removal. A paper in Nature Communications quantifies the land area in countries’ climate pledges at approximately 1 billion hectares, often involving the conversion of existing land uses to forests. 🧪
