There’s nothing quite like taking a dip in the ocean in the summertime. Sand, sunshine and the smell of salt water are practically staples when the weather gets warm. The only thing that’s unpleasant ...

“In a way, the ocean has been our greatest champion in the fight against climate change,” Glaubke said. “But without a ...

A thought-provoking review led by an international team of researchers reveals the critical, yet poorly studied role of salinity in a changing ocean and coastline. The study underlines how changes in ...

Using ocean observations and a large suite of climate models, scientists have found that long-term salinity changes have a stronger influence on regional sea level changes than previously thought.

The difference in salinity between freshwater and saltwater holds promise as a large source of renewable energy. Energy is required to desalinate water, and running the process in reverse can generate ...

Agricultural researchers say iirrigated agriculture in the Central Valley is at risk due to the lack of fresh water. The long-term viability of irrigated agriculture in California's highly productive ...

Analysing 1,135 wells pre-monsoon 2024, CGWB flags 9.78 per cent exceeding electrical conductivity (EC) salinity at 3,000 ...
