A new study published this month has highlighted the growing dangers of changes in ocean currents. According to this new research, weaker circulation in the ocean currents could actually enhance the ...

Meandering ocean currents play an important role in the melting of Antarctic ice shelves, threatening a significant rise in sea levels. Meandering ocean currents play an important role in the melting ...

A recent study reveals our warming world is triggering shifts in winds and ocean currents, which is likely contributing to an increase in harmful carbon pollution. An international team of scientists, ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...

Ocean currents determine the structure of the deep-sea ocean floor and the transport of sediments, organic carbon, nutrients and pollutants. In flume-tank experiments, researchers have simulated how ...

Oceans all over the world rely on a delicate balance of different elements to remain stable. Temperature, salinity, pH, and pressure all combine to create the complex bodies of water that maintain ...

The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite is allowing researchers to directly observe small-scale ocean processes across the globe for the first time. An eddy is like a mini whirlpool in ...

A surprising technique has helped scientists observe how Earth’s oceans are changing, and it’s not using specialized robots or artificial intelligence. It’s tagging seals. Several species of seals ...

Underwater wireless power transfer is emerging as a key technology for enabling long-duration, maintenance-free operation of ...

You never know what’s going to happen while at sea. We hadn’t even left port from Tauranga, New Zealand yet and had already changed plans at least twice due to extreme winds and rain associated with ...

SANTA MONICA, Calif. (KABC) -- If you're out near the Santa Monica Pier, you may notice parts of the ocean looking a little pink. Don't worry, it's all in the name of science. It's a chemical called ...

Far from shore and hidden beneath the waves, scientists are tracking swirling columns of water that behave like slow-motion ...
