Most people think the great white shark is the ocean predator they should fear the most. However, this type of jellyfish, statistically speaking, is much deadlier. Sharks are probably the animal that ...

Diver and underwater videographer John Roney shared mesmerizing footage from his last dive — a close-up of the world's ...

Jellyfish are well known for their ability to multiply en masse and influence coastal ecosystems. But what is less known is that they have very diverse and sometimes surprising life cycles. In many ...

At the Dabiri Lab, researchers are embedding microelectric controllers into jellyfish, creating "biohybrid" devices. For years, science fiction has promised a future filled with robots that can swim, ...

Meet the giant phantom jellyfish. It's over a metre (3ft) wide and has four ribbony arms that trail behind for up to 10 ...

(Nanowerk News) Jellyfish can't do much besides swim, sting, eat, and breed. They don't even have brains. Yet, these simple creatures can easily journey to the depths of the oceans in a way that ...

Climate change is putting countless marine organisms under pressure. However, jellyfish in the world’s oceans could actually benefit from the rising water temperatures – also and especially in the ...

University of Colorado Boulder Professor Nicole Xu is developing biohybrid robotic jellyfish by integrating tiny microelectronic systems into the live animals. Xu has about 15 to 20 moon jellyfish in ...

A jellyfish "elevator" carrying a hitchhiking fish up from the ocean depths has been captured in a photo documenting one of the largest migrations in the world — one that takes place every night. Tom ...

For three summers in a row, researchers working in the Mai Po Nature Reserve noticed something unusual drifting through the ...

Researchers show how biohybrid robots based on jellyfish could be used to gather climate science data from deep in the Earth's oceans. Jellyfish can't do much besides swim, sting, eat, and breed. They ...

This time-lapse composite image shows a biohybrid robot jellyfish descending through the three-story tank designed for testing the swimming abilities of the modified creatures. Jellyfish can't do much ...
