During a voyage off the east coast of Africa, researchers collected detailed measurements of massive swirling currents that ...

potentially disrupting the vital ocean current. Our new research suggests the Antarctic Circumpolar Current will be 20% slower by 2050 as the world warms, with far-reaching consequences for life on ...

A major ocean current in the Arctic, the Beaufort Gyre, is changing rapidly due to climate warming—and this could trigger a ...

As global electricity use grows, the strain on traditional energy sources increases. Renewable options like wind and solar ...

The newfound ecosystem is filled with sea crabs, octopuses and gigantic sponges, suggesting it may have been thriving for ...

Until now, a global evaluation of ocean current energy with actual data was lacking. Using 30 years of NOAA's Global Drifter Program data, a study shows that ocean currents off Florida's East Coast ...

Glacial ice loss is a phenomenon that seems far removed from our everyday lives, but its impact is felt globally. As the ...

Global warming is having an impact on Atlantic Ocean currents that could lead to significant shifts in weather patterns in many parts of the world, according to research from numerous climate ...

Scientists warn that the Antarctic Circumpolar Current is slowing down due to climate change. This could lead to sea level ...

A new study analyzed nearly four decades of deep ocean observations to reveal significant cooling and freshening of deep ...

One of the ocean currents in the Arctic Ocean is at risk of disappearing this century because of climate change, according to a new study. As a result, the North Atlantic could be flooded with ...

So it's a far more accurate way to assess how the current's strength and behaviour will change as the world warms. It picks up the intricate interactions between ice melting and ocean circulation.
