#Skimming uranium from the sea Researchers developed a protein-based, genetically encodable system that can bind water-soluble uranium with exceedingly high affinity and selectivity.
with the added complication that seawater also contains various metal ions at high concentrations, making separating the uranium extremely complex.
This protein can repeatedly sequester 30 to 60%of the uranyl in synthetic sea water and thus provides a much needed advance in the isolation of uranyl from seawater.

#New Technique Probes the Sea floor Using Ocean's Weak Seismic Waves A technology developed by Stanford scientists for passively probing the seafloor using weak seismic waves generated by the ocean could revolutionize offshore oil and natural gas extraction
The pulses bounce off the seafloor and geological formations beneath then journey back to the surface,
they create pressures on the sea floor, where they generate seismic waves that then propagate in every direction.

the temperature is kept at a stable 25°C (77°F) by the sea, and the crops are well out of the reach of parasites.
The evaporating sea water condenses on the inner walls of the biosphere, creating a high-humidity environment (up to 85 percent) that favors crop growth.

Sea surface temperature anomalies across the western and central equatorial Pacific is the primary driver of El niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO.
However, prior to the declaration of weak, moderate or strong El niño, the atmosphere must display signs of its response to the sea surface temperatures anomalies.
The climatologists finally recorded the atmospheric response to relatively warm seawater temperatures in February along with increasing low-level westerly winds over the equatorial Pacific and enhanced rainfall over the western equatorial Pacific.
