The world’s oceans face triple planetary crisis: Report
A new report on the state of the world’s oceans paints a grim picture. The ninth annual Copernicus Ocean State Report finds “No part of the ocean is untouched by the triple planetary crisis, as pollution, biodiversity loss, and climate change are putting pressure on the ocean worldwide.” The EU-funded report draws on decades of […]

Sharks risk losing their bite as oceans turn acidic: Study
Sharks continually shed and regrow teeth throughout their lives, replacing worn or lost teeth with new ones. That makes them particularly good at catching prey. However, these top marine predators could lose their literal edge as ocean acidification damages their teeth and makes it harder to keep and replace them, a new study says. “Shark […]

OceanGym: A Benchmark Environment for Underwater Embodied Agents
We introduce OceanGym, the first comprehensive benchmark for ocean underwater embodied agents, designed to advance AI in one of the most demanding real-world environments. Unlike terrestrial or aerial domains, underwater settings present extreme perceptual and decision-making challenges, including low visibility, dynamic ocean currents, making effective agent deployment exceptionally difficult. OceanGym encompasses eight realistic task domains and a unified agent framework driven by Multi-modal…

"Scientists shocked to find marine life thriving on World War II explosives in the Baltic Sea"
#BalticSea #Oceans #Environment

Marine life found thriving on WWII explosives in the Baltic Sea
German waters alone contain about 1.5 million metric tonnes of dumped weapons, mostly from the two world wars in the 20th century.

Today's #HamRadio #POTA CW activation of US-3847 Occoneechee Mountain Natural State Conservation Area (four hunting park-to-park QSOs, six running calling CQ) along with tonight's SST together made a milestone for me: Now 75% of all my logged QSOs are Morse code.
