NASA’s SWOT Satellite Reveals Big Impact of Small Ocean Currents and Waves in n Marine Ecosystems
NASA’s SWOT satellite, in collaboration with CNES, reveals how submesoscale ocean features just a mile wide drive vital vertical circulation. These small currents transport heat, carbon, and nutrients, profoundly influencing marine ecosystems and climate systems. The mission’s high-resolution data is reshaping how scientists model ocean-atmosph...

India's First Manned Deep Ocean Mission To Be Launched By 2026 End
India's first manned deep ocean mission 'Samudrayaan' into a 6,000-metre depth using the manned submersible vehicle 'Matsya' is expected to be launched by the end of 2026, National Institute of Ocean Technology (NIOT) Director said.

A Secret Ocean Could Change Everything We Know About Mars
Evidence is mounting that a secret lies beneath the dusty red plains of Mars, one that could redefine our view of the Red Planet: a vast reservoir of liquid water, locked deep in the crust.

Earth’s Mantle Could Be Harbouring Ocean of Magma Formed Billions of Years Ago, Claims Study
The study conducted by Boukaré and published on March 26 in the Journal Nature suggests that this molten layer at the core-mantle boundary of the Earth formed the internal thermal structure of the planet and tectonic plates. This may still influence the geochemical process of the Earth today. Further, it suggests a similar magma ocean existence on...

Colossal Squid Seen Alive For the First Time In 100 Years In Deep Ocean
One of the most distinctive features of the colossal squid is the presence of rotating hooks on its arms, distinguishing it from other glass squid species.

Part Of North America Is Sinking Into Earth's Mantle: Study
A chunk of ancient oceanic crust buried deep beneath the Midwest is pulling parts of North America's crust down into the Earth's mantle, scientists have found.

Deep Sea Mining Impacts Still Felt Forty Years On: Study
A strip of the Pacific Ocean seabed that was mined for metals more than 40 years ago has still not recovered, scientists said, adding weight to calls for a moratorium on all deep sea mining activity.

Scientists Race To Identify Deep-Sea Species Amid Growing Mining Interest
In the cold, lightless Pacific Ocean deep, the seabed is scattered with metal-rich rocks coveted by miners -- and huge numbers of strange and rare animals almost entirely unknown to science.

New Study Reveals How Earth's Orbit Controls Ice Ages
A research team examined a million-year record of climate change, focusing on land-based ice sheets across the Northern Hemisphere and deep ocean temperatures.

Scientists Observe Rare Plastic Ice, A Hybrid Form of Ice and Water, Under Extreme Pressure and Heat
Researchers have observed plastic ice, a phase where water molecules rotate while staying in a solid structure. The discovery, made under extreme pressure and heat, could provide new insights into the composition of icy exoplanets and moons. The findings suggest plastic ice VII may have existed in Europa and Titan's interiors and could influence nu...
