Next week, eight of our team are heading to Reykjavík for the Arctic Circle Assembly 2026 ❄️ Find us at the National Oceanography Centre booth throughout the event. 🌊
Climate change could alter the world's strongest seasonal upwelling system off Somalia's coast. New NOC-led research projects declining offshore productivity and fish biomass, with industrial fleets hit hardest while some coastal communities may remain resilient 🌊🐟

🚨 New Paper 🚨
Nearly 300,000 km of coastline could be at risk from pollution linked to metal mines and mine waste sites.
Research led by NOC’s Dr Adam Sproson identifies coastal hotspots most at risk, highlighting the need for prevention and monitoring.

New film 'Pressure' tells how weather forecasts shaped D-Day.
But there’s another forecast that was just as important. The tide.
Look back at the role of tidal prediction on this historic day, and discover the link to NOC's scientific heritage in our latest #blog.
Our next #ThirdThursdayScience webinar will be on 17 September (13:00-14:00 CEST) and will discuss "Emerging Biomolecular Technologies for the Observation and Management of Marine Life" with speaker Julie Robidart from @noc.ac.uk. More and register here: www.marineboard.eu/events/emb-s...

🌊 New NOC-led research suggests limiting global warming to around 1.5–2°C could help the North Atlantic spring phytoplankton bloom recover over time.
But if warming rises beyond this before net zero is reached, the bloom could continue declining.

Tiny, invisible swirls and twirls – not much bigger than a coin – deep below the ocean’s surface are silently shaping some of the biggest forces steering our climate: sea-level rise, fisheries collapse, extreme flooding, and how much carbon dioxide the ocean absorbs. 📷 Tasman Sea | NASA
