🌊In a new study co-led by USF professor @oceanandclimate.bsky.social Patrick Rafter, researchers used forams from the Pliocene to show that warming in the tropical Pacific may not trigger the severe decline in nutrients predicted by earlier models.

How ancient plankton point to the resilience of ocean ecosystems
The researchers used a cutting-edge approach to predict future ocean conditions by examining the distant past through analyses of microscopic fossils.

news.climate.columbia.edu/2025/09/04/t... We've had a new analysis published on the impact on the ocean carbon sink from the unprecedented ocean warming of 2023.
The Ocean Carbon Sink Is Ailing
Measurements analyzed by an international research team indicate the global ocean absorbed significantly less CO₂ than anticipated during the unprecedented marine heatwave in 2023.
