Now, scientists have partially reconstructed the possible origin and drift path of that debris via a novel means: extracting data about ocean temperatures stored in shells of barnacles ...

On March 8, 2014, Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 vanished. The crash site was never found, nor was the plane. It remains one of the most perplexing aviation mysteries in history. In the years since t… ...

The geochemistry of barnacle shells provides clues as to where the barnacles have traveled. The barnacles attached to the already-recovered Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 debris offer up partial clues.

Barnacle growth also takes into account the temperature of surrounding waters and the food sources available to the growing crustaceans: What researchers didn't know back in 2015 was what a six ...

The method, described in the journal AGU Advances,involves analysing the shell chemistry of barnacles to determine the environmental circumstances such as the temperature and ocean drift ...

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers crews scraped barnacles from the large lock at the Hiram M. Chittenden Locks in Ballard on Friday as part of annual maintenance cleaning. The 55-foot-deep chamber was ...
