Planktonic foraminifera are tiny marine organisms, which are essential to the ocean's carbon cycle. A recent study reveals that these populations are shrinking at an alarming rate due to ocean warming ...

Yet these tiny organisms — called plankton — may be unable to thrive in the rapidly warming oceans, according to a pair of ...

Emerging evidence suggests that plate tectonics, or the recycling of Earth's crust, may have begun much earlier than ...

single-celled species of algal plankton, during its seven-day life cycle. Cells of P. noctiluca are normally around 5% denser than sea water. But after cell division, the two new cells selectively ...

Dr. Adam Best, principal battery researcher within Australia's National Science Agency, told Drive that doing "partial state of charge cycling" can lead to "tremendously long life cycles" for electric ...

repairing the world’s malfunctioning water cycle will require a global effort. There is no easy solution to fortifying one of the planet’s most fundamental life support systems. That said ...

Further investigation showed this expansion happens as a natural part of the plankton’s cell cycle. Once a single-celled plankton divides into two, an internal structure called a vacuole ...

Microscopic plankton are at the heart of the ocean ... Part 1 shows the Pyrocystis’ life cycle. Part 2 shows the cell wall breaking down. Part 3 shows the cell inflating.

It’s one of the most massive migrations on Earth: a huge biomass of tiny plankton that travel from ... But at the beginning of its life cycle, it swells, reducing its density and traveling ...
