Global warming is having an impact on Atlantic Ocean currents that could lead to significant shifts in weather patterns in ...

Historically, the ocean has been difficult to model. Scientists struggled in years past to simulate ocean currents or accurately predict fluctuations in temperature, salinity, and other properties. As ...

The nightmare scenario of Atlantic Ocean currents collapsing, with weather running amok and putting Europe in a deep freeze, looks unlikely this century, a new study concludes. In recent years ...

Until now, a global evaluation of ocean current energy with actual data was lacking. Using 30 years of NOAA's Global Drifter ...

WASHINGTON — The nightmare scenario of Atlantic Ocean currents collapsing, with weather running amok and putting Europe in a deep freeze, looks unlikely this century, a new study concludes.

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation likely won't completely collapse with global warming, but any weakening could ...

A system of ocean currents called the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation strongly affects climate, but is showing signs of shutting down. An analysis now suggests that total collapse is ...

As global electricity demand grows, traditional energy sources are under strain. Oceans, which cover more than 70% of Earth's ...

Researchers identified a strong negative North Atlantic Oscillation in 2009–2010 as the tipping point that pushed sargassum ...
