His team recently reported its first successful trial of a gigantic plastic trapping system in the Pacific. Now they intend to get to the root of the problem. AI detects plastic waste in the sea A new artificial intelligence recognises plastic in the sea from satellite images. This could help to systematically remove plastic waste from the oceans using ships. MIT creates new atlas of oxygen-poor waters The 3D maps would help researchers track and predict the ocean's response to climate change. Navigating beneath the Arctic ice Under the ice, there is no GPS reception. But mapping the Arctic Ocean beneath the ice sheet is essential to understanding the effects of climate change. MIT has now developed a navigation method based on sound.
