Pace of Bering Sea changes startles scientists
The Yupik Eskimo village of Kotlik on Alaska’s northwest coast relies on a cold, hard blanket of sea ice to protect homes from vicious winter Bering Sea storms. Frigid north winds blow down from the Arctic Ocean, freeze saltwater and push sea ice south. The ice normally prevents waves from forming and locks onto beaches, walling off villages. But not this year. Phyllis Stabeno is quoted.
The 'roars' of Antarctica
Researchers from the University of Granada lead an international project to study two submarine volcanoes in Antarctica with great seismic activity. PMEL's Acoustic Program was part of the research deploying hydrophones in the Bransfield Strait. This article is in Spanish.
New data on seismology of underwater volcanoes of the Bransfield Strait in Antarctica
Scientists from the University of Granada (UGR) have managed to obtain images of the structure of two of the most important submarine volcanoes of the Bransfield Strait, in Antarctica, within the framework of the Spanish Antarctic Campaign 2018-2019, which has just ended. This work is in collaboration with NOAA PMEL's Acoustic Program. The story is originally in Spanish.

Third Pod from the Sun: Gunslingers of the Sea
Third Pod from the Sun is the American Geophysical Union's podcast about the scientists and methods behind the science. In this episode, ocean acoustics specialist Joe Haxel describes the myriad of animals that contribute to Earth’s underwater soundscape, including fish that growl and crabs that scratch their backs.
