For the first time in 40 years, a vital Pacific Ocean upwelling off Panama failed in 2025. This biological engine, crucial for fish populations and coastal communities, didn't activate as trade winds weakened. Scientists, monitoring this rare event, suspect climate disruption, raising alarms about interconnected ocean systems and the need for better tropical ocean observation.

Rapid climate change is overwhelming ecosystems like redwoods and seagrass, threatening biodiversity. Scientists are now using conservation genomics to identify and propagate species resilient to extreme conditions, aiding restoration efforts. While promising for long-lived species, this approach isn't a standalone solution and reducing emissions remains paramount for ecosystem survival.

The project is being implemented by a joint team of scientists both from CSIR-NIO Regional Centre at Vishakhapatnam and Goa.

"There is not very strong evidence to prove the changes in monsoon pattern are due to climate change. No two monsoons have ever been same. To say that there are any global patterns will be an over statement," said S R Shetye, vice-chancellor of Goa University and the former director of national institute of oceanography (CSIR-NIO) in Goa.
