Coral reefs are the most biodiverse ecosystem on the planet and the lifeblood of a thriving ocean. Yet without action, 90 percent of coral reefs could die by 2050. Fortunately, reef guardian Theresa Fyffe has a plan. Learn how her team...

In this video Paul Andersen shows how increasing ocean temperatures causes coral polyps to release their symbiotic algae. This process of coral bleaching decreases the availability of energy for the coral and may eventually lead to coral...

With data as his paintbrush, media artist Refik Anadol trains AI algorithms to visualize the disappearing wonders of nature. He gives a beautiful tour of his recent work -- imagery of artificial coral reefs, flowers, rainforests -- and...

For us terrestrial animals, sneezing is a regular part of life involving the movement of a lot of air. But animals that live underwater and don't breathe air like we do also sneeze. Sea sponges, corals, and hagfish use their snot to...

Corals might have a fighting chance against bleaching, and fuzzy moths aren't just sporting their fur because it's adorable. Hosted by: Hank Green

Dolphins are sophisticated creatures similar to us in many ways. But until recently, one of their behaviors had scientists scratching their heads.

Under the sea, untold wonders await in the form of untapped medicinal potential. Chemist Sam Afoullouss dives into the science behind natural remedies, explaining why the ocean's great (and still largely unexplored) biodiversity is ideal...

An average teaspoon of ocean water contains five million bacteria and fifty million viruses -- and yet we are just starting to discover how these "invisible engineers" control our ocean's chemistry. At TEDxMonterey, Melissa Garren sheds...

Designing skin for robots was out of reach for a long time, but last week, scientists announced they successfully made the first autonomous robot with full-body skin!

We welcomed new science and discoveries in 2018, but unfortunately, we also had to say goodbye to some important figures in the scientific community.

Science probably isn’t the first thing that pops into your head when you think about Alaska, but it has a lot to offer when it comes to learning about the world, from cold corals to our behavior.

Corals might have a fighting chance against bleaching, and fuzzy moths aren't just sporting their fur because it's adorable.

Megan Toenyes, a former SciShow videomaker returns for a showdown with her former employer!

Just a few meters below the waves, marine biologist and explorer-photographer David Gruber discovered something amazing -- a surprising new range of sea creatures that glow in many colors in the ocean's dim blue light. Join his journey...

When you think about coral reefs, you probably imagine a sparkling tropical oasis that you can easily see while snorkeling or diving, but reefs can be found as deep as 8000 meters! As deep as they are, those reefs are still not immune to...

Kristen Marhaver studies corals, tiny creatures the size of a poppyseed that, over hundreds of slow years, create beautiful, life-sustaining ocean structures hundreds of miles long. As she admits, it's easy to get sad about the state of...

Lots of life on Earth can fluoresce, creating a beautiful neon world of camouflage, communication, and adaptation that is hidden from the human eye.

Sunscreen comes in many forms, each with its own impacts on your body and the environment. With so many options, how do you choose which sunscreen is best for you? To answer that question, Mary Poffenroth explains how sunscreens work and...

Hundreds of meters below the surface of the ocean, Laura Robinson probes the steep slopes of massive undersea mountains. She's on the hunt for thousand-year-old corals that she can test in a nuclear reactor to discover how the ocean...

Scientists have found Coral reefs in new, dazzling colors, but this is a warning that the reefs are stressed out.

This week on SciShow news we have some very unfortunate reports from scientists concerning the Great Barrier Reef. However, scientists have also created a 3-D model of Zika Virus, which is one step towards finding out how it functions.

Welcome back to Bizarre Beasts: Season Zero, where we are remastering episodes of Bizarre Beasts that were originally created for Vlogbrothers. This episode, Feather Stars! The ancient sea creature that has been on this planet for 500...
