How can earthquakes contribute to ocean life? This is what a recent study published in Nature Geoscience hopes to address as a team of scientists investigated a connection between seismic activity and ...
Pytoplankton are plant-like microorganisms that are estimated to have generated half of the Earth's oxygen supply. And even when they die, they fall to the ocean floor and turn into a massive carbon ...
