More marine life is living on some World War II munitions disposed of on the Baltic Sea’s seabed than on the sediment surrounding it, according to a paper in Communications Earth & Environment.

The findings show that some marine organisms can tolerate high levels of toxic compounds if there is a hard surface for them to inhabit.

The results also demonstrate how detritus from human conflict can provide habitats for wildlife, which is similarly shown in a Scientific Data study mapping a fleet of World War I shipwrecks in Maryland in the US.

Changing water temperatures and human-driven introductions of fish have altered the composition of fish populations in streams and rivers across the USA over the past three decades, a study in Nature suggests.

A disproportionately large effect has been observed in cold-water streams, where fish abundance decreased by more than 50% over the three-decade study period.
