Drop in Oceanic Oxygen Levels Could Severely Affect Global Marine Nitrogen Cycle

A new study by researchers at the University of Bristol has revealed that the feedback mechanisms that were believed to keep the marine nitrogen cycle comparatively stable over geological time can break down when oxygen levels in the ocean drop considerably.

Multifactor Models Expose the Impact of Climate Change on Marine Life

For a long time, rising ocean temperatures have been associated with negative effects on marine life, but researchers from Florida State University have discovered that the long-term outlook for numerous marine species is a lot more complex—and perhaps bleaker—than researchers formerly believed.
