Tiny extremophiles give the salty lakes their rosy hue, but over-mining and climate change are threatening their existence.

The researchers believe we have already passed a tipping point. Scientists issue warning over troubling phenomenon discovered near Antarctica: 'Now more critical than ever' first appeared on The Cool ...

Bangladesh is known as the land of rivers and flooding, despite almost all of its water originating outside the territory.

A new study reveals that global ocean analysis products can effectively replace expensive in-situ sound speed measurements ...

Urinary tract infections, reproductive disorders, and skin conditions are rising in Mongla, disproportionately affecting women due to their greater reliance on water for household chores ...

This paper discusses the effect of the patch metal thickness on the performance of a dual-band (L/Ka), dual-pol microstip patch array to measure sea-surface salinity. The array has a 13.3 dB gain at 1 ...

Did you know the Dead Sea is incredibly salty, with 342 grams of salt per kilogram? That’s about 34.2% salt, making it ten times saltier than regular ocean water. Located 1,388 feet below sea level, ...

Scientists find rising ocean salinity in Antarctica, reversing decades-long trends and accelerating sea ice loss.

The ocean around Antarctica is changing in unexpected ways. Since 2015, sea ice surrounding the frozen continent has been ...

The ocean around Antarctica is rapidly getting saltier at the same time as sea ice is retreating at a record pace. Since 2015, the frozen continent has lost sea ice similar to the size of Greenland.

Salinity data are key for assessing the marine carbonate system, and new space-based salinity measurements will enable the development of novel space-based ocean acidification assessment.

Abstract: The Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission launched in November 2009 will provide, for the first time, satellite observations of sea surface salinity (SSS). At level 3 (L3) of the ...
