A group of researchers on an oceanic research expedition ran into a hurricane and turned it to their advantage, studying the water in the storm's wake. Professor Michael Beman and his team discovered that powerful storms draw deep-water low-oxygen zones closer to the ocean's surface, along with the organisms that inhabit them, creating smorgasbords for some sea creatures but potentially endangering those that depend on higher oxygen concentrations for survival.

A new international study involving researchers from Durham University has revealed that climate change is accelerating the rate of development and global abundances of antibiotic resistance bacteria in soils.

Vulnerable communities in the Southeastern United States must look to the future, not the past, to prepare for climate disasters, according to researchers at Tufts University. In a recent paper published in the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, the researchers document substantially higher risk of extreme temperatures and flooding in the Southeast U.S.
