This is a fossilized coral — one of dozens scattered across the Indian Ocean archipelago of the Seychelles. It is a piece of history, hidden in plain sight. It tells of a time 125,000 years ago, when ...
Imagine being able to measure the extent of sea-level change over the past half million years, or find out why our climate changes through time. Clues to those mysteries and others may be sunk deep in ...
Coral reefs and the abundant life they support are increasingly threatened today, but a snapshot of a coral reef that flourished 150 million years ago shows that many animals were then at their peak ...
SEYCHELLES — Coastal planners take heed: Newly uncovered evidence from fossil corals found on an island chain in the Indian Ocean suggests that sea levels could rise even more steeply in our warming ...
One of the coral cores from the expedition. This month, an international team of researchers returned to shore after a two-month-long ocean expedition exploring fossil coral reefs off the coast of ...
Heat waves, droughts and mass extinctions are all potential threats from climate change. But the scariest risk has always been that of rapid sea-level rise caused by the collapse of the massive ice ...
The function of dissepiments and marginaria in the Rugosa (Cnidaria, Zoantharia) / J.E. Sorauf -- Axial increase in some early tabulate corals / D.-J. Lee ... [et al.] -- Biometric analysis of ...
Lead author Carra Williams, a PhD student in geosciences at the University of Sydney, here holds a fossilised coral core that has undergone neutron scanning. A University of Sydney student has ...
Deep-sea coral fossils used by researchers to study carbon sequestration in the Southern Ocean 20,000 to 10,000 years ago. The Southern Ocean played a critical role in the rapid atmospheric carbon ...
After getting some great feedback from last week’s column on Ohio’s Earth Science Week and its discussion of rocks and minerals, I thought a good follow-up this week would be to highlight some of the ...
Coral reefs support 25 percent of all marine life around the globe. Those in the Gulf of Mexico, along the coasts of Louisiana, Florida, Texas and Mexico, might be less known and less popular among ...
