A new form of oxygen production has been detected on the ocean floor, raising concerns about the impact of deep-sea mining to this vital ecosystem. Researchers have discovered large amounts of oxygen ...

Humans along with all other animals need to respond to changes in oxygen availability. The lecture will describe the underlying oxygen sensing mechanism (that involves interesting chemistry) and show ...

Metals on the deep-ocean floor produce "dark oxygen" 3,962.4m below the surface, a new study has suggested. The finding challenges long-held assumptions that only photosynthetic organisms - those ...

Potato-sized nodules from a region between Hawaii and the western coast of Mexico that could be a prize for mining companies - but they could also reshape out understanding of how life started on ...

Scientists know some of the broad strokes for how life emerged from primordial Earth, but digging into the processes that ...

All living organisms have to breathe, exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide with the environment. How do fish do it without lungs? This viewer question comes from Zambia. Actors Who Permanently Damaged ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have discovered how cells can adjust their gene activity to survive when oxygen runs low ...
