Kogia Records in Brazilian Equatorial and Southwestern Atlantic Oceans
Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.ABSTRACT The pygmy (Kogia breviceps) and dwarf (Kogia sima) sperm whales are cryptic cetaceans characterized by inconspicuous surfacing behavior, small group sizes, and deep‐diving habits, making visual detection particularly challenging. Here, we present the first broad‐scale passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) assessment of Kogia spp.

The 2025 Kamchatka Earthquake and Tsunami: Cascading Impacts and Risks to Japan
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2837-2854, September 2026.ABSTRACT On July 29th, 2025, a large earthquake (Mw 8.8) occurred near the Kamchatka Peninsula. This event caused a tsunami that reached Japan's Pacific coast, even though the source was far away. In this study, we analyze the characteristics of earthquakes and tsunamis and discuss how they relate to the recurrence possibility and risk in Japan.

Thermal Stress Is Associated With Fragmentation of Mediterranean Posidonia oceanica Meadows
Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.By combining a physiological model of cumulative thermal stress with AI‐based seagrass mapping, we show that chronic sublethal warming is associated with fragmentation of Mediterranean Posidonia oceanica meadows and increased regression risk by 2100. ABSTRACT Posidonia oceanica meadows, which underpin Mediterranean coastal ecosystems, are undergoing ...

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2026.Abstract Chlorophyll a (Chl a) is a key indicator of phytoplankton biomass and marine primary productivity, linking ocean ecosystem change to biogeochemical cycling and climate. Understanding the environmental controls on long‐term Chl a variability is therefore essential.
