Japan’s oldest outboard builder silences seas with all-electric motor

Yamaha may be the largest, most well-known manufacturer of outboard motors in Japan, but Tohatsu Corporation beat it to market by a couple years back in the mid-20th century to become the country's first outboard producer. Tohatsu remains a venerable force in outboard production today and is now teaming with US-based Ilmor Engineering in developing an entire all-electric outboard family that will start quietly hitting waters in Europe and North America this year. Tohatsu began building motor products with its founding in…

Wetlands Made Salty by Rising Seas Produce More Heat-Trapping Methane

February 1, 20242 min readWetlands with a small amount of salinity can produce more methane gas than those filled with freshwater or lots of seawater, new research suggestsBy Miranda Willson & E&E NewsAerial view above tidal wetlands and mud flats South San Francisco Bay.

Challenging Our Understanding – This 72 Million-Year-Old “Dragon” Terrorized Ancient Seas

The Wakayama Soryu, a mosasaur discovered in Japan and comparable in size to a great white shark, lived 72 million years ago with unique features like elongated rear flippers and a shark-like dorsal fin. This significant find, named Megapterygius wakayamaensis, challenges previous assumptions about mosasaur swimming and hunting behaviors (Artist’s concept).

Seas of water ice may sit underground at Mars equator

Data from ESA's Mars Express indicates that there may be subterranean ice deposits at the Martian equator that are up to 2.3 miles (3.7 km) thick. With enough water to fill the Red Sea, this could be a tremendous resource for future Mars colonies.The modern Martian environment is about as dry as you can get. Scientists often use Earth's Atacama desert as an experimental stand-in, but the Atacama, though one of our planet's driest spots, is a tropical rainforest in a monsoon compared to Mars.That isn't to say that the Red…

‘She took control of the ship with a pistol’: the high seas heroine who inspired a savage pirate tale | Books

Katherine Howe isn’t just a prolific author and historian. She is also a passionate sailor, so the recent discovery of a great-aunt, who singlehandedly rescued a ship from mutiny in the 19th century, was serendipitous to say the least. The relative was Hannah Masury, wife of the ship’s captain, Edward Howe. Unusually for the time, Hannah joined Edward on his voyages, helping to transport locomotives and labourers to and from California. One day, while sailing around the Pacific coast, Edward died. Without a commander, the…

How Ancient Seas Molded Life on Earth

Recent research has shown that the formation of greenalite in ancient oceans played a crucial role in determining the availability of certain metals, such as manganese and molybdenum, which were vital for early life forms. This discovery, made by recreating Archean seawater in the lab, offers new insights into the evolutionary processes of early life.Scientists know very little about conditions in the ocean when life first evolved, but new research published in the journal Nature Geoscience has revealed how geological…
