Life in the deepest corners of the world brims with wonder and a recent experiment found something similar in the Tonga ...

Subjects range from how available chemical resources affect ecosystem processes to how organisms produce chemical compounds ... focusing on the trophic connectivity of species and assemblages in deep ...

focusing on the trophic connectivity of species and assemblages in deep pelagic waters. A working group of scientists united by an integrated, interdisciplinary approach to studying coral reefs across ...

Studies indicate that marine organisms, from plankton to larger fish species, and ultimately humans are ingesting microplastics, leading to physiological harm such as inflammation, digestive blockages ...

These uncanny organisms are not yet a reality, but the authors think we need to take a long hard look in the mirror before stepping through it. "Driven by curiosity and plausible applications, some ...

Alien life might look unlike anything we've ever seen on Earth. Trying to find evidence of these unknown organisms will require some creativity. These questions are preoccupying astrobiologists ...

A category of synthetic organisms dubbed “mirror life,” whose component molecules are mirror images of their natural counterpart, could pose unprecedented risks to human life and ecosystems ...

Abiotic data (temperature, salinity and chlorophyll-a) were collected using a CTD and a fluoremeter. Organisms were identified to a higher level, with Chaetognatha and Euphausiacea identified to ...

Targeted protein degradation is a powerful tool, but difficult to achieve in vivo with high specificity and control. Here, the authors develop two in vivo targeted protein degradation systems in ...

By extracting DNA fragments from diverse sources —from human teeth and faeces to soil samples and ice cores — researchers have uncovered the stories of all sorts of organisms and ecosystems ...

What was unusual was that 80% of these organisms were normally coastal dwellers that were cruising on the life pelagic. Open ocean species like gooseneck barnacles sat shoulder to shoulder with ...
