New research shows that trace elements in a fish’s ear bones can be used to identify and track coal ash contamination in the waters where it lived.

A Nicholas School-led study has found that the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (MOC), a deep-ocean process that plays a key role in regulating Earth’s climate, is primarily driven by cooling waters west of Europe.

A new study by Duke Marine Lab researchers showcases the remarkable diving abilities of beaked whales and provides new clues on how they make a living at the extremes of depth and cold.

New report presents hard evidence that the impacts of climate change will be much worse than expected and will occur far sooner, unless governments phase out fossil fuels at an unprecedented speed and scale.

���Ĵ�ý has acquired rights to create a 10,000-acre “carbon farm.” When fully operational, the farm could potentially store enough carbon to help Duke meet its goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2024.

To prepare themselves to face challenging and complex environmental issues and to get the most out of their education, many Nicholas School students take advantage of concurrent degree programs.

Michael and Annie Falk, whose $1 million gift has established the Nicholas School’s Michael and Annie Falk Foundation Environmental Exposomics Laboratory, hosted an educational event at their home in Palm Beach, Fla. earlier this year to introduce guests to the lab and its mission.

A $1 million gift has allowed the Nicholas School to establish a research laboratory in environmental exposomics, an emerging scientific field that assesses the cumulative effects of environmental contaminants on human health.
