martinezlaura+FollowSea Ice’s Secret Superpower RevealedTurns out, sea ice in the Southern Ocean is a major player in soaking up carbon pollution—sometimes for better, sometimes for worse. When winter ice sticks around longer, the ocean grabs up to 20% more CO2, but in summer, less ice means the water can gulp even more from the air. The catch? Too much CO2 isn’t great for ocean life, and melting ice could mess up this delicate balance. Wild, right? Our planet’s carbon cycle is way more complicated than we thought! #ClimateScience #OceanFacts #SeaIce #Science20Share

Their chomp is no joke—1,300 psi, one of the strongest bites in the ocean! These apex predators can live in both salt and freshwater, and their teeth are built to grab, tear, and eat almost anything. If you ever find a bull shark tooth on the beach, you’re literally holding millions of years of history! #BullShark #SharkTeeth #OceanFacts #News20Share
Zachary Gutierrez+FollowHumpbacks: The Only Whales With This Wild TrickTurns out, only humpback whales can pull off the jaw-dropping ‘bubble-net feeding’ move! Scientists found that their unique flippers let them spin fast enough to trap fish in a ring of bubbles—no other whale comes close. This gives humpbacks a major edge when hunting, especially since they have to pack on fat for those long, food-free trips to Hawaii. How cool is it that their feeding skills are this exclusive? #Science #humpbackwhale #oceanfacts00Share
