A pioneering study in which the ICM-CSIC has participated reveals how the northward shift of the subtropical jet stream — a very fast, high-altitude airflow — has reduced phytoplankton production, the basis of marine life, in the northwestern Mediterranean by up to 40%.

Research led by ICM-CSIC paves the way for more efficient and sustainable industrial production systems, including wastewater treatment and green biomass generation.

A collaborative international study with participation of the ICM-CSIC uses innovative machine learning models to reduce uncertainty in climate projections and reshape our understanding of ocean-atmosphere sulfur cycling.

The Institut de Ciències del Mar (ICM-CSIC) actively contributes to three of CSIC’s strategic networks to tackle global ocean challenges, further reinforcing its leadership in marine research.

This is the main conclusion of a new study published in the journal Sustainability, which defines these infrastructures as key tools for collecting environmental data and developing public policies based on scientific evidence.

This is the main conclusion of a study led by the ICM-CSIC that shows that the flux of biogenic particles travelling to the ocean floor in the coastal areas of the Antarctic region is as intense during autumn as in summer, the season of greatest export until now.
