Cataclysmic volcanic eruption in Hawai'i triggers astonishing explosion of life 1,200 miles away
When Hawai‘i’s Kīlauea volcano erupted in May 2018, it wasn’t just the island that felt the impact, say scientists in a new study.

Cancer cells go up in flames—thanks to this deep-sea sugar
Scientists have discovered a sugar compound from deep-sea bacteria that can destroy cancer cells in a dramatic way. This natural substance, produced by microbes living in the ocean, causes cancer cells to undergo a fiery form of cell death, essentially making them self-destruct. In lab tests and in mice with liver cancer, the compound not only stopped tumors from growing, but also activated the immune system to fight back. This finding could pave the way for entirely new cancer treatments based on sugars from marine organisms.

UK joins EU-led OceanEye programme to strengthen ocean monitoring and climate resilience
The United Kingdom is set to become a participant in OceanEye, a major new ocean science initiative led by the European Union, as the government under Andy Burnham pursues closer scientific and policy ties with the bloc. The move comes against a backdrop of heightened concern over the impacts of the current El Niño weather pattern, which originates in the equatorial Pacific and is expected to drive more extreme weather globally this year. Warm seas contributed to Britain's summer heatwaves, and researchers warn of a small but serious risk that continued warming could destabilise key ocean currents that help keep Europe's climate mild. Launched in June with a budget of €92 million (£78 million), the OceanEye programme aims to improve funding and coordination for global ocean research. A central feature is the creation of a virtual 'digital twin' of the world's oceans, designed to help scientists better understand rapid changes in marine environments. Environment Secretary Angela Eagle will announce the UK's participation at a UN event, alongside European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen and Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney. The UK will share more data from institutions such as the Met Office with EU and Canadian counterparts, supporting improved flood defences, coastal planning and protection from storms. Officials describe the UK as a 'climate-science superpower' and stress that international cooperation is essential to addressing the climate and nature crisis. The decision forms part of a wider strategy to deepen UK-EU partnerships in areas including technology, defence and manufacturing. Experts welcome the step, noting that long-running monitoring programmes face uncertainty elsewhere, particularly as the US considers cuts to parts of its NOAA ocean work. Ocean data also has strategic value for maritime defence, at a time when European waters face growing geopolitical pressures.
