The Sargasso Sea has become warmer and saltier, and the loss of oxygen and ocean acidification is accelerating
The subtropical oceans are getting warmer and saltier, losing oxygen, and gaining carbon dioxide, and in the recent decade, these changes have accelerated.
Read MorePlanktonic sea snails and slugs may be more adaptable to ocean acidification than expected
An evolutionary study finds that pteropods, or “wing-footed” sea snails and slugs, have faced acidified oceans in the past – and survived.

Read MoreWhat is the maximum possible number of Atlantic tropical cyclones? See the year 2005
Climate simulations and analyses of Atlantic hurricane activity indicate that the record number of tropical cyclones that occurred in 2005 (28 storms) is close to the maximum number that might occur in this region, given existing climate conditions.
