Rip currents are strong, narrow channels that pull the unwitting away from the shore and some move faster than an Olympic swimmer. "The way they work on surf beaches, the white water - the breaking waves - bring water to the beach," said Rob Brander, a geomorphologist -someone who studies the way the ocean and the land interacts - at the University of New South...

It makes juvenile rockfish really anxious, and it upsets the digestion of sea urchins. The pH (a measure of acidity -- the lower the pH, the more acid the water) of the planet's oceans is dropping rapidly, largely because the carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere are increasing.
