In a remarkable breakthrough, researchers at Stanford University have discovered that Arctic diatoms—microscopic, single-celled algae with glass-like walls—can actively glide through channels in frozen sea ice at temperatures as low as −15 °C. This sets a new record for the coldest movement ever observed in complex living cells, overturning long-held assumptions about life in extreme cold.In a remarkable breakthrough, researchers at Stanford University have discovered that Arctic diatoms—microscopic, single-celled algae with glass-like walls—can actively glide through channels in frozen sea ice at temperatures as low as −15 °C.

A new scientific study has revealed that the potential collapse of the Gulf Stream system, a crucial part of the Earth’s climate, can no longer be considered an unlikely scenario. The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), often referred to as the Gulf Stream, plays a vital role in transporting warm water from the southern hemisphere toward Europe and the Arctic, where it cools, sinks, and drives a deep return current. This circulation has not been weaker in the past 1,600 years, largely due to global warming and rising sea levels.
