Floating ocean plastics can take more than 100 years to disappear, breaking into tiny fragments that slowly sink to the seafloor.

Scientists found that even if all plastic dumping stopped today, floating plastics would take over 100 years to vanish.

Our new study set out to understand what happens to large pieces of floating plastic once they enter the ocean. We developed ...

Marine scientists are witnessing a technological revolution in ocean cleanup. Revolutionary systems are transforming how we ...

Snowballing framework between the oil slick dataset and the deep learning model. The left panel (in red) represents the process of data preparation, and the right panel (in blue) represents the ...

The team uses seawater and delicate mesh filters to painstakingly separate the buoyant plastic by hand. The goal is to ...

Imagine being able to check the likelihood of ocean pollution the same way you check the weather. It is an idea that a team of researchers at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego put ...

Ice surf hit the beaches last week, along with many local surfers, exposing some to potential raw sewage for years, surfers in the south bay have complained. They can smell it and taste it in the ...
