NASA's Europa Clipper-a mission to a potentially habitable ocean world. [PDF]

Nat Commun, 2020
Jupiter’s satellite Europa almost certainly hides a global saltwater ocean beneath its icy surface. Chemistry at the ice surface and ocean-rock interface might provide the building blocks for life, and NASA’s Europa Clipper mission will assess Europa’s ...

Governing Open Ocean and Fish Carbon: Perspectives and Opportunities

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Marine life plays a vital role in the ocean’s biological pump by sequestering and mediating fluxes of carbon to the deep sea and sea floor. The roles that fish and other marine vertebrates play in the biological pump are increasingly attracting ...

Triton: Fascinating Moon, Likely Ocean World, Compelling Destination!

Bulletin of the AAS, 2021
Triton is an important signpost in understanding the diverse populations of both ocean worlds and Kuiper Belt objects (KBOs). As a likely ocean world, it is unique by virtue of its kidnapped history from the Kuiper Belt: its large orbital inclination ...
