Clownfish Shrink to Survive Ocean Heat Waves
A study published in Science Advances reveals that clownfish shrink by 1-2% during heat waves, increasing their survival rate by potentially reducing food requirements and improving metabolic efficiency, a previously unknown adaptation to climate change.

Clownfish Shrinkage Improves Survival During Marine Heatwaves
A study in Papua New Guinea reveals that clownfish shrink by 1-2 millimeters during marine heatwaves, increasing survival rates by up to 78 percent; researchers believe this adaptation reduces metabolic needs, potentially indicating broader adaptability among coral reef fish.

New Research Suggests Megalodon Was 80 Feet Long and Sleek
A new study suggests the extinct megalodon shark, previously thought to be up to 50 feet long, could have reached 80 feet (24 meters), with a sleeker body shape resembling a lemon shark rather than a great white, according to a study published Sunday in the journal Palaeontologia Electronica.

Dolphin Whistle Study Wins $100,000 Prize
Researchers from the Sarasota Dolphin Research Program won a $100,000 prize for identifying at least 20 types of dolphin whistles, two of which triggered avoidance or a range of responses when played back to dolphins, suggesting potential alarm and unexpected encounter signals.
