Pharmaceutical Pollution Alters Salmon Migration, Increasing Immediate Success but Potentially Reducing Long-Term Survival
A study in Sweden's Dal River found that clobazam, a common pharmaceutical pollutant, alters young salmon migration, causing them to reach the ocean faster but potentially increasing their vulnerability to predators; researchers tracked over 700 salmon using sound-transmitting tags.

Global Warming Intensifies Marine Heatwaves, Increasing Storm Strength
A new study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences shows that half of the intense marine heatwaves since 2000 are due to global warming from burning fossil fuels, leading to more frequent, intense heatwaves, harming marine life and increasing the strength of storms.
