Scientists investigate rising whale calf deaths in Argentina — 2dAn unusually high number of southern right whale calves have died along Argentina’s Patagonian coast, prompting an investigation by researchers who say the event is unprecedented in 23 years of monitoring. The leading hypothesis is that kelp gull wounds expose calves to marine bacteria, but scientists are testing samples and have not confirmed the cause.

Nicole Hardy The gulls attacking the calves sounds plausible but they need to rule out changes in the food supply or water quality first.

Category 3 Nolo Threatens Remote Pacific Atolls — 2dHurricane Nolo rapidly strengthened to Category 3 over the Pacific west of Hawaii, prompting a tropical storm warning for part of the remote Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument.

Sam Okafor Those atolls in the monument are already fragile ecosystems, hope the surf doesn't wipe out too much nesting habitat.

Spain Seas Set Summer Temperature Records — Sep 11, 2026Global sea surface temperatures have sustained daily records for 100 consecutive days, about 1 degree Celsius above the 1982-2010 average, driven by ocean heat uptake and an emerging El Niño, with warnings of coral bleaching, stronger rainfall and storms, and ongoing marine heatwaves likely into next year. In Europe, Spain-recorded seas reached all-time highs across the Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts, including a Dragonera buoy reading of 33.02°C, attributed to human-caused climate change and accompanied by a record 61 heatwave days on land, signaling widespread risks to marine ecosystems, biodiversity, and coastal communities.

Sam Okafor These sea temperatures hitting 33C will wipe out too much marine life along Spain's coasts before long.

LSAW Pipes Support Large-Scale Energy, Marine ProjectsBusiness — Sep 16, 2026LSAW pipes are favored for large-diameter pipelines because their welded longitudinal seam supports demanding project specs, with selection guided by design requirements and standards such as API 5L and ISO 3183. Heavy-wall LSAW pipes extend this utility into offshore engineering, where increased wall thickness provides structural strength and corrosion resistance for jacket foundations in offshore wind projects, with specifications driven by engineering design and project criteria.

Scientists Warn Strong El Niño Could Harm Galápagos Wildlife — Sep 9, 2026Forecasts of a stronger-than-normal El Niño indicate the Galápagos could face significant ecological stress as sea temperatures rise about 2.2°C above average, threatening both marine food chains and terrestrial forests. The impact endangers iconic wildlife such as penguins, boobies, petrels, albatrosses, sea lions, and key habitat like Scalesia forests, with invasive plants compounding the risk and prompting a coordinated mitigation effort including invasive-plant removal and seed preservation.
