Balanced harvesting’ – catching predominantly small, immature fish - is controversial. But can it help promote sustainable fisheries?

Noise pollution is a problem for cetaceans because they use echolocation to ‘see’ and hear.

Drones can be incredibly useful for both science and conservation efforts – especially when we are dealing with hard-to-reach or wide ranging animals.  As a bonus they may also prove to be cost effective.

Involving local people in research might be one of the few ways in which both communities and researchers in developing nations can obtain data-sets spanning long periods of time.

How can we find out what historic ocean-climate was? Turns out that there are all sorts of clever ways.

 Climate change doesn’t just mean that the global mean surface temperature is increasing.  Because oceans absorb heat, they too increase their temperature.  The upper layers are affected first, but as warming increases, lower and lower depths also increase in temperature.

Turns out the Great Barrier Reef's beche-de-mer fishery isn't as sustainable as we would like.

All the science is the world isn't going to do anything if we choose not to take action

Citizen science teaches us new things about coral reefs - and how we can take better care of them
