Every night, a massive migration of sea creatures occurs in oceans worldwide. Billions of animals ascend from the deep to feed near the surface. They then return to the depths before dawn. This daily commute, called diel vertical migration, plays a crucial role in moving carbon. It helps regulate Earth's carbon cycle. Scientists continue to study this hidden ocean phenomenon.

Abstract Despite growing evidence of widespread genetic responses to anthropogenic activity, data shortfalls constrain genetic monitoring efforts and preclude the widespread use of genetic data to inform conservation. For flora, one option is to leverage the wealth of genetic material preserved in Earth’s vast herbarium collections, but the extent to which herbarium specimens can supply the population-level data required to monitor genetic change remains unclear. Using the Essential Biodiversity Variable (EBV) framework developed to monitor population-level genetic change, we show that digitized herbarium specimens could be used to quantify ∼162 K measures of genetic EBVs representing over 41 K species, 86% of regions on Earth, and spanning the past 250 years of global change. As such, we find...

STATEMENT: European Commission Delivers Clear Plan to Advance EUDR Implementation darla.vanhoorn… Tue, 05/05/2026 - 03:58 Brussels (May 5, 2026) — The European Commission has released the results of its simplification review of the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) , aimed at making compliance easier for companies and enforcement agencies across the EU. Crucially, the plan does not alter the core legal text of the EUDR — ending months of speculation about late-stage revisions ahead of the December 30, 2026, enforcement deadline. Instead, it focuses on ensuring the law is applied consistently across member states.

This is a re-post from Yale Climate Connections by Jeff Masters In brief: Multiple studies have found that tropical cyclones are becoming stronger worldwide. New so-called attribution studies have linked increased wind speeds to human-caused ocean warming. In the future, scientists expect an increase in the proportion of Category 4 and Category 5 tropical cyclones. The dangers posed by one of humanity's greatest scourges – the tropical cyclone – are being significantly increased by human-caused global warming. In fact, one of the more confident predictions about how climate change will affect these great storms — which we will refer to by their Atlantic name when they reach winds of 74 mph (119 km/hr) or greater, the hurricane...

Open access notables Synergistic impact of marine heat waves and rapid intensification exacerbates tropical cyclone destructive power worldwide , Radfar et al., Science Advances Tropical cyclones (TCs) are among the most devastating natural phenomena, causing substantial economic damage and severe impacts on human life and infrastructure. Prolonged extreme ocean temperature events, known as marine heat waves (MHWs), affect 52% of landfalling TCs globally and provide favorable conditions for TC rapid intensification (RI). Here, we use four decades of global data to demonstrate that TCs experiencing RI during MHWs resulted in 60% more billion-dollar disasters compared to those without heat wave influence. Our analysis reveals these costlier storms produced consistently...
