From Costa Rica to Thailand, the rising senior has forged an interdisciplinary path.

At the Nicholas School of the Environment, researchers and entrepreneurs are joining forces to solve environmental problems.

Meet the Read Lab, learn more about its research focus, lab members' experiences in the lab and the opportunities the lab offers Duke students.

Crab behavior suggestive of wound-tending may improve coral tolerance to heat waves.

Modeling experiments show Pacific warm and cold patches persisted even when continents were in different places

Animals that hunt in the dark with sonar may not be able to tell junk from squids

Meet the Ocean Synthesis Lab, learn more about its research focus, lab members' experiences in the lab and the opportunities the lab offers Duke students.

Researchers have found a chemical clue in Italian limestone that explains a mass extinction of marine life in the Early Jurassic period, 183 million years ago. Volcanic activity pumped out CO2, warming oceans and lowering their oxygen levels. The findings may foretell the impact climate change and oxygen depletion might have on today’s oceans.

Xavier Basurto, Truman and Nellie Semans/Alex Brown & Sons Associate Professor of sustainability science, studies community-based marine conservation. Basurto discusses how fishers can help us understand the effects of climate change by listening to their experiences.

Meet the Hunt Lab, learn more about its research focus, a lab member's experience in the lab and the opportunities the lab offers Duke students.

Researchers in North Carolina have created a coastal evolution model to analyze how coastal management activities on barrier islands, meant to adapt to sea-level rise, interact with natural processes that would otherwise keep barrier islands above water.

This year’s global Earth Day theme is “planet vs plastics”, and calls for the rapid phase out all single-use plastics.

91��������’s Marine Geospatial Ecology Lab led a team of researchers that mapped the population density of North Atlantic right whales worldwide to predict and help avoid harmful, even fatal, exposure to commercial fishing and vessel strikes.

Marine Protected Areas must be flexible and responsive, not absolute

The vast size of the ocean makes tracking human activity there challenging, but a new study provides a startling glimpse of how extensive this activity has become in recent years and how much of it occurs outside of public monitoring.
