    Warm water is mixing up life in the Arctic

    the wake of climate change is likely to produce radical changes in the marine habitats of the High North. This is indicated by data from long-term observations in the Fram Strait, which researchers from [...] to fundamentally impact the local symbiotic communities, from the water’s surface down to the deep seas.

    Micro-plastic particles in edible fish and herbivores

    Marine Litter
    Micro-plastic particles pose a risk not only to sea birds, whales and organisms at the bottom of the sea. In two new studies, scientists of the Alfred Wegener Institute Hemholtz Centre [...] Polar and Marine Research (AWI) show that plastic waste is also eaten by nautili as well as North and Baltic Sea fish such as cod and mackerel.
