The oceans are overheating—and scientists say a climate tipping point may be here
In 2023, the world’s oceans experienced the most intense and widespread marine heatwaves ever recorded, with some events persisting for over 500 days and covering nearly the entire globe. These searing ocean temperatures are causing mass coral bleaching and threatening fisheries, while also signaling deeper, system-wide climate changes.

"In recent times, tire wear particles have been found to account for about 45% of all microplastics in both terrestrial and aquatic systems...
Rain washes those tire wear particles into ditches, where they flow into streams, lakes, rivers and oceans...
In a recent study, we tested pine wood chips and biochar – a form or charcoal made from heating rice husks in a limited oxygen chamber, a process known as pyrolysis – and found they could remove approximately 90% of tire wear …

One of the biggest microplastic pollution sources isn’t straws or grocery bags – it’s your tires
Rain storms wash those tire shards into streams and ultimately into lakes and oceans. That’s bad news for fish and other aquatic life.

So much groundwater is now being pumped that it is filling the oceans as it drains off land,
becoming one of the largest drivers of global sea level rise.

“Staggering” Water Loss Driven by Groundwater Mining Poses Global Threat
A new study finds that freshwater resources are rapidly disappearing, creating arid “mega” regions and causing sea levels to rise.

Record marine heat waves in 2023 covered 96% of oceans, lasted four times longer than average #ocean

Record marine heat waves in 2023 covered 96% of oceans, lasted four times longer than average
Heat waves aren't just getting worse on land, the majority of the world's oceans are experiencing record-breaking temperatures too. These marine heat waves are getting longer, more intense and reaching farther than ever before. In particular, 2023's marine heat waves (MHWs) exhibited the longest duration, widest extents, and highest intensities on record—and 2024 wasn't any better.

Barenblatt solutions for the time-fractional porous medium equation: approach via integral equations
This paper explores Barenblatt solutions of the time-fractional porous medium equation, characterized by a Caputo-type time derivative. Employing an integral equation approach, we rigorously prove the existence of these solutions and establish several fundamental properties, including upper and lower estimates, mass conservation, regularity, and monotonicity. To bridge theory and practice, we introduce a family of convergent numerical schemes specifically designed to compute the Barenblatt solu…
